Surface spontaneous parametric down-conversion [PDF]

Physical Review Letters, 2009
Surface spontaneous parametric down-conversion is predicted as a consequence of continuity requirements for electric- and magnetic-field amplitudes at a discontinuity of chi2 nonlinearity.

Parametric down-conversion beyond the semiclassical approximation [PDF]

Physical Review Research, 2020
Using a perturbative approach, we investigate the parametric down-conversion process without the semiclassical approximation. A Wigner functional formalism, which incorporates both the spatiotemproal degrees of freedom and the particle-number degrees of ...

Multi-Parameter Entanglement in Femtosecond Parametric Down-Conversion [PDF]

Physical Review A, 2001
A theory of spontaneous parametric down-conversion, which gives rise to a quantum state that is entangled in multiple parameters, such as three-dimensional wavevector and polarization, allows us to understand the unusual characteristics of fourth-order ...

Spontaneous parametric down-conversion [PDF]

Contemporary Physics, 2018
Spontaneous Parametric Down-Conversion (SPDC), also known as parametric fluorescence, parametric noise, parametric scattering and all various combinations of the abbreviation SPDC, is a non-linear optical process where a photon spontaneously splits into ...

Spatial correlations in parametric down-conversion [PDF]

Physics Reports, 2010
The transverse spatial effects observed in photon pairs produced by parametric down-conversion provide a robust and fertile testing ground for studies of quantum mechanics, non-classical states of light, correlated imaging and quantum information.

Angular Schmidt Modes in Spontaneous Parametric Down-Conversion [PDF]

Physical Review A, 2011
We report a proof-of-principle experiment demonstrating that appropriately chosen set of Hermite-Gaussian modes constitutes a Schmidt decomposition for transverse momentum states of biphotons generated in the process of spontaneous parametric down ...

Seeded and unseeded high order parametric down conversion [PDF]

Physical Review A, 2018
Spontaneous parametric down conversion (SPDC) has been one of the foremost tools in quantum optics for over five decades. Over that time it has been used to demonstrate some of the curious features that arise from quantum mechanics.

Towards spontaneous parametric down conversion from monolayer MoS₂. [PDF]

Sci Rep, 2018
AbstractWe present a detailed study of the second order nonlinearity of 2D (mono-atomic layer) dichalcogenide MoS2, both in the visible and in the IR regime, and test its potential for spontaneous parametric down-conversion (SPDC), the amplification of vacuum fluctuations mediated by optical nonlinearity.

Zeno Effect in Parametric Down-Conversion [PDF]

Physical Review Letters, 1996
Two examples are presented where the photon emission on spontaneous parametric down-conversion is prevented when attempts are made to infer the moment of emission. This inhibition is analyzed in terms of the disturbance caused on the system by the modifications that must be introduced in order to make possible such inference.

Orthogonal spatial coding with stimulated parametric down-conversion

Optics Express, 2023
Orthogonal optical coding is widely used in classical multi-user communication networks. Using the phase conjugation property of stimulated parametric down-conversion, we extend the current time-domain orthogonal optical coding scheme to the spatial domain to encode and decode image information.
