Background and Review of Cavity-Enhanced Spontaneous Parametric Down-Conversion. [PDF]
Spontaneous parametric down-conversion (SPDC) in a nonlinear crystal has been a workhorse for the generation of entangled and correlated single-photon pairs used for quantum communications applications for nearly three decades.

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

Multimode Spontaneous Parametric Down-Conversion in the Lossy Medium [PDF]
We study the process of multimode Spontaneous Parametric Down--Conversion (SPDC) in the lossy, one dimensional waveguide. We propose a description using first order Correlation Functions (CF) in the fluorescence fields, as a very fruitful and easy ...

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

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

Time Ordering in Spontaneous Parametric Down-conversion [PDF]
We consider the multi‐mode parametric down‐conversion Hamiltonian that governs the evolution of the fields inside a nonlinear crystal. If the Hamiltonian does not commute with itself at all times—as is the case for the multimode down‐conversion Hamiltonian—then the expansion of the evolution operator must take the form of the time‐ordered Dyson series,

Towards Measuring Terahertz Photon Statistics by a Superconducting Bolometer
Statistical distributions of the analog readings of an antenna-coupled THz superconducting bolometer were measured and analyzed under a special type of irradiation by low-energy fluxes of THz photons with Poisson photon statistics and controllable mean ...
