We discuss the concept of characteristic squeezing modes applied to a travelling-wave optical parametric amplifier pumped by an ultrashort pulse. The characteristic modes undergo decoupled single-mode squeezing transformations, and…
Squeezing light is a critical resource in both fundamental physics and precision measurement. The squeezing light has been generated through optical-parametric amplification inside an optical resonator. However, preparing the squeezing…
Degenerate optomechanical parametric oscillators are optical resonators in which a mechanical degree of freedom is coupled to a cavity mode that is nonlinearly amplified via parametric down-conversion of an external pumping laser. Below a…
We consider the phase stability of a local oscillator (or laser) locked to a cavity QED system comprised of atoms with an ultra-narrow optical transition. The atoms are cooled to millikelvin temperatures and then released into the optical…
We propose an experiment to extract ponderomotive squeezing from an interferometer with high circulating power and low mass mirrors. In this interferometer, optical resonances of the arm cavities are detuned from the laser frequency,…
We analyze the performance of optomechanical cooling of a mechanical resonator in the presence of a degenerate optical parametric amplifier within the optomechanical cavity, which squeezes the cavity light. We demonstrate that this allows…
Light source is indispensable component in on-chip system. Compared with hybrid or heterogeneous integrated laser, monolithically integrated laser is more suitable for high density photonic integrated circuit (PIC) since the capability of…
The interaction between quantum light and matter is being intensively studied for systems that are enclosed in high-$Q$ cavities which strongly enhance the light-matter coupling. However, for many applications, cavities with lower…
Single-mode Josephson junction-based parametric amplifiers are often modeled as perfect amplifiers and squeezers. We show that, in practice, the gain, quantum efficiency, and output field squeezing of these devices are limited by usually…
We realize a laser with a cloud of cold rubidium atoms as gain medium, placed in a low-finesse cavity. Three different regimes of laser emission are observed corresponding respectively to Mollow, Raman and Four Wave Mixing mechanisms. We…
We present a theoretical analysis of the properties of an unseeded optical parametic amplifier (OPA) used as the source of entangled photons for applications in quantum lithography. We first study the dependence of the excitation rate of a…
The future laser interferometric gravitational-wave detectors sensitivity can be improved using squeezed light. In particular, recently a scheme which uses the optical field with frequency dependent squeeze factor, prepared by means of a…
Phase-sensitive amplification of squeezed states is a technique to mitigate high detection loss, e.g. at 2-micrometre wavelengths. Our analytical model of amplified squeezed states expands on the effect of phase noise and derives two…
Lasing in the bad-cavity regime has promising applications in precision measurement and frequency metrology due to the reduced sensitivity of the laser frequency to cavity length fluctuations. Thus far, relevant studies have been mainly…
Non-classical states of light, such as number-squeezed light, with fluctuations below the classical shot noise level, have important uses in metrology, communication, quantum information processing, and quantum simulation. However,…
It has been predicted and experimentally demonstrated that by injecting squeezed light into an optomechanical device it is possible to enhance the precision of a position measurement. Here, we present a fundamentally different approach…
Stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) in plasma in the degenerate regime is studied theoretically and numerically. Different from normal SRS with the non-degenerate eigen electrostatic mode excited, the degenerate SRS is developed at plasma…
A Josephson parametric amplifier (JPA) can create squeezed states of microwave light, lowering the noise associated with certain quantum measurements. We experimentally study how the JPA's pump influences the phase-sensitive amplification…
A laser-induced acoustic desorption source, developed for use at central facilities, such as free-electron lasers, is presented. It features prolonged measurement times and a fixed interaction point. A novel sample deposition method using…
We propose a novel class of lasers based on a fourth order exceptional point of degeneracy (EPD) referred to as the degenerate band edge (DBE). EPDs have been found in Parity-Time-symmetric photonic structures that require loss and/or gain,…
