Ultrabright Backward-wave Biphoton Source

Quantum Physics 2015-05-28 v1

Abstract

We calculate the properties of a biphoton source based on resonant backward-wave spontaneous parametric down-conversion. We show that the biphotons are generated in a single longitudinal mode having a subnatural linewidth and a Glauber correlation time exceeding 65 ns.
