Spontaneous parametric down-conversion [PDF]

open access: yesContemporary 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 ...

Entanglement, Complementarity, and Vacuum Fields in Spontaneous Parametric Down-Conversion [PDF]

open access: yesAtoms, 2019
Using two crystals for spontaneous parametric down-conversion in a parallel setup, we observe two-photon interference with high visibility. The high visibility is consistent with complementarity and the absence of which-path information. The observations

Tuning curve of type-0 spontaneous parametric down-conversion [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Optical Society of America B: Optical Physics, 2013
We study the tuning curve of entangled photons generated by type-0 spontaneous parametric down-conversion in a periodically poled KTP crystal. We demonstrate the X-shaped spatiotemporal structure of the spectrum by means of measurements and numerical ...

Classical model of spontaneous parametric down-conversion

open access: yesPhysical Review Research, 2022
We model spontaneous parametric down-conversion (SPDC) as classical difference frequency generation (DFG) of the pump field and a hypothetical stochastic “vacuum” seed field.

Observation of frequency-uncorrelated photon pairs generated by counter-propagating spontaneous parametric down-conversion. [PDF]

open access: yesSci Rep, 2021
We report the generation of frequency-uncorrelated photon pairs from counter-propagating spontaneous parametric down-conversion in a periodically-poled KTP waveguide.

Towards terahertz detection and calibration through spontaneous parametric down-conversion in the terahertz idler-frequency range generated by a 795 nm diode laser system

open access: yesAPL Photonics, 2018
We study a calibration scheme for terahertz wave nonlinear-optical detectors based on spontaneous parametric down-conversion. Contrary to the usual low wavelength pump in the green, we report here on the observation of spontaneous parametric down ...

Spontaneous parametric down conversion without poling for silicon carbide and lithium niobate photonics. [PDF]

open access: yesSci Rep
State-of-the-art photon sources based on spontaneous parametric down-conversion (SPDC) currently rely on artificial structuring of the material nonlinearity to satisfy phase-matching conditions. This technique, known as periodic poling, is available only

X-ray parametric down-conversion reveals EUV-polariton. [PDF]

open access: yesNat Commun
Spontaneous parametric down-conversion (PDC) of photons is a gateway into the quantum realm – thoroughly studied in nonlinear optics and ubiquitously used to generate non-classical states of light.

Spontaneous Parametric Down-Conversion from GaAs Nanowires at Telecom Wavelength [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2022
We report on the generation of photon pairs at 1550 nm from free-standing epitaxially grown self-assisted micrometre long GaAs nanowires. The efficiency of the spontaneous parametric down-conversion process has a rate of 320 GHz/Wm normalized to the ...

General simulation method for spontaneous parametric down- and parametric up-conversion experiments

open access: yesSciPost Physics Core, 2023
Spontaneous parametric down-conversion (SPDC) sources are an important technology for quantum sensing and imaging. We demonstrate a general simulation method, based on modeling from first principles, reproducing the spectrally and spatially resolved ...
