Scheme for realizing a photon number amplifier.

چکیده
A scheme for realizing a photon number amplifier by use of a high-quantum-efficiency photodetector and a number-state semiconductor laser is analyzed. It is found that the photon number amplifier is not significantly limited by the electronic amplifier noise or by the laser quantum efficiency for input states that are nearly classical.

Frequency stabilization of a frequency-doubled 1556-nm source to the 5S(1/2) ? 5D (5/2) two-photon transitions of rubidium.
Improvements in the power level of sources near 1550 nm and in the efficiency of waveguide frequency doublers enabled us to lock a frequency-doubled source directly to the 5S(1/2) ? 5D(5/2) two-photon transitions near 778 nm. We obtained a sufficiently powerful second-harmonic signal, exceeding 2 mW, by doubling an external-cavity diode laser that was amplified by an erbium-doped fiber amplifie...
متن کاملA Novel Active Feedback Frequency Compensation Scheme for Two-Stage OTA
A novel active feedback frequency compensation scheme is presented in this work. Based on the proposed technique, an amplifier with two main poles in its frequency bandwidth can be easily compensated by introducing a pole-zero pair in a local feedback. The proposed method is mathematically analyzed and then based on the derived formulations, a design procedure is established. The capability of ...
متن کاملNonlocal Nondegenerate Optical Parametric Amplifier Based on Genuine Multipartite Entanglement
We propose a new scheme for realizing nonlocal nondegenerate optical parametric amplifier by means of genuine four-mode entanglement. The nondegenerate optical parametric amplifier is regarded as a unitary transformation from two input fields to two outputs. Two inputs and two outputs are located at the remote stations respectively. Employing off-line four-mode entanglement, homodyne detection,...
متن کاملDecoherence, environment-induced superselection, and classicality of a macroscopic quantum superposition generated by quantum cloning
The high resilience to decoherence shown by a recently discovered macroscopic quantum superposition MQS generated by a quantum-injected optical parametric amplifier and involving a number of photons in excess of 5 104 motivates the present theoretical and numerical investigation. The results are analyzed in comparison with the properties of the MQS based on and N-photon maximally entangled stat...
متن کاملThe non-deterministic quantum logic operation and teleportation of a vacuum and single photon superposition state via parametric amplifiers
We firstly present an all-optical scheme to implement the non-deterministic quantum logic operation of Knill, Laflamme and Milburn (Nature, 409, 4652(2001)). In our scheme, squeezed vacuum state is acted as auxiliary state instead of single photon resources. Then we demonstrate that same setup can be used to teleport a superposition of vacuum and single photon state of the form α|0 > +β|1 > and...
