30 years of squeezed light generation

چکیده
Squeezed light generation has come of age. Significant advances on squeezed light generation have been made over the last 30 years—from the initial, conceptual experiment in 1985 till today’s top-tuned, application-oriented setups. Here we review the main experimental platforms for generating quadrature squeezed light that have been investigated in the last 30 years.

Quantum Squeezed Light Propagation in an Optical Parity-Time (PT)-Symmetric Structure
We investigate the medium effect of a parity-time (PT)-symmetric bilayer on the quantum optical properties of an incident squeezed light at zero temperature (T=0 K). To do so, we use the canonical quantization approach and describe the amplification and dissipation properties of the constituent layers of the bilayer structure by Lorentz model to analyze the quadrature squeezing of the outgoing ...
متن کاملGeneration and applications of amplitude-squeezed states of light from semiconductor diode lasers.
We describe recent experiments on generation and applications of amplitude-squeezed states of light from a semiconductor diode laser. Amplitude-squeezed light with intensity noise 2 dB below the standard shot- noise limit was observed from a diode laser with a weak optical feedback from an external grating. Applications of this amplitude-squeezed light as a local oscillator in heterodyne detect...
متن کاملSqueezing spectrum for radiation of atoms in two laser fields
Over the past few years, properties of nonclassical states o f light as well as different methods for their production have been widely discussed. In most works, both theoretical and experimental ones, monochromatic continuous-wave pump fields are considered to obtain the nonclassical light, including squeezed states [ 1 ]. Several papers are also devoted to problems of squeezed light pulses [ ...
متن کاملGeneration of pulsed and continuous-wave squeezed light with 87Rb vapor.
We present experimental studies on the generation of pulsed and continuous-wave squeezed vacuum via nonlinear rotation of the polarization ellipse in a (87)Rb vapor. Squeezing is observed for a wide range of input powers and pump detunings on the D1 line, while only excess noise is present on the D2 line. The maximum continuous-wave squeezing observed is -1.4 +/- 0.1 dB (-2.0 dB corrected for l...
