Modal, spectral, and polarization entanglement in guided-wave parametric down-conversion
We examine the modal, spectral, and polarization entanglement properties of photon pairs generated in a nonlinear periodically poled two-mode waveguide one-dimensional planar or two-dimensional circular via nondegenerate spontaneous parametric down-conversion. Any of the possible degrees of freedom—mode number, frequency, or polarization—can be used to distinguish the down-converted photons whi...
متن کاملDynamics of Entanglement between Linearly Polarized Photons and π -Electrons in Graphene
In the present article we report the dynamical behavior of entanglement between π-electrons and photons in Graphene. It is shown that the degree of such entanglements depend on the orientation of π-electron momenta relative to the photonic polarization. Moreover, we show that as the detuning between the π-electron transition frequencies and that of the photons is increased, the degree of entang...
متن کاملSingle-photon frequency upconversion for long-distance quantum teleportation and communication
Entanglement generation, single-photon detection, and frequency translation that preserves the polarization quantum state of the photons are essential technologies for long distance quantum communication protocols. This thesis investigates the application of polarization entanglement to quantum communication, including frequency upconversion, photon-counting detection, and photon-pair and entan...
متن کاملCompact all-solid-state source of polarization-entangled photon pairs
A compact source of polarization-entangled photon pairs at a wavelength of 856 nm is realized using a frequency-doubled laser diode as the pump source for cavity-enhanced type-II spontaneous parametric down-conversion. Our setup generates photon pairs with entanglement visibility of >95% and with count rates comparable to those of standard experiments based on large-frame ion lasers. © 2001 Ame...

Polarization-entangled photon pairs can be efficiently prepared into pure Bell states with a high fidelity via type-II spontaneous parametric down-conversion (SPDC) of narrow-band pump light. However, the use of femtosecond pump pulses to generate multi-photon states with precise timing often requires spectral filtering to maintain a high quality of polarization entanglement. This typically red...
