Noise characteristics of a non-degenerate Optical Parametric Oscillator - Application to quantum noise reduction
نویسندگان
چکیده
2014 A semi-classical analysis of the noise characteristics of a non degenerate, above threshold, optical parametric oscillator is presented, yielding expressions for the quantum fluctuations of the output field intensities and phases. Particular emphasis is given to the study of the noise on the intensity difference between the two generated fields. The effect of losses, unbalance, detunings and excess pump noise is investigated. A significant quantum noise reduction is found over a broad domain of the parameter space. J. Phys. France 50 (1989) 1209-1225 15 MAI 1989, Classification Physics Abstracts 42.50Dr 42.50Kb 42.65Ky

Improving quantum-noise reduction with spatially multimode squeezed light
We consider the squeezed vacuum state emitted by a degenerate optical parametric oscillator below threshold. We show, by using a confocal cavity and an appropriate matching lens, that the observed level of squeezing can become largely independent of the spatial intensity configuration of the local-oscillator field. © 1997 Optical Society of America [S0740-3224(97)01002-3] PACS number(s): 42.50....
متن کاملLimits to squeezing in the degenerate optical parametric oscillator
We develop a systematic theory of quantum fluctuations in the driven optical parametric oscillator, including the region near threshold. This allows us to treat the limits imposed by nonlinearities to quantum squeezing and noise reduction in this nonequilibrium quantum phase transition. In particular, we compute the squeezing spectrum near threshold and calculate the optimum value. We find that...
متن کاملNon-classical behavior in multimode and disordered transverse structures in OPO
We employ the Q representation to study the non-classical correlations that are present from below to above-threshold in the degenerate optical parametric oscillator. Our study shows that such correlations are present just above threshold, in the regime in which stripe patterns are formed, but that they also persist further above threshold in the presence of spatially disordered structures. PAC...
متن کاملA Phase Noise Reduction Technique in LC Cross-coupled Oscillators with Adjusting Transistors Operating Regions
In this paper, an intuitive analysis of a phase noise reduction technique is done, and then a modified structure is proposed to achieve higher phase noise reduction than the original one. This method reduces the impact of noise sources on the phase noise by decreasing closed-loop gain in zero-crossings points and moving this high closed-loop gain to the non-zero-crossings points. This reduction...
متن کاملRaman-noise induced quantum limits for χ nondegenerate phase-sensitive amplification and quadrature squeezing
We present a quantum theory of nondegenerate phase-sensitive parametric amplification in a χ nonlinear medium. The non-zero response time of the Kerr (χ) nonlinearity determines the quantum-limited noise figure of χ parametric amplification, as well as the limit on quadrature squeezing. This non-zero response time of the nonlinearity requires coupling of the parametric process to a molecular-vi...
