Background and Review of Cavity-Enhanced Spontaneous Parametric Down-Conversion [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Research of the National Institute of Standards and Technology, 2019
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.

Quasi-phase-matched spontaneous parametric down-conversion in chiral ferroelectric nematic liquid crystals

open access: goldPhysical Review Research
For high-intensity photon pair generation via spontaneous parametric down-conversion, phase matching or quasi-phase-matching must be realized. The most common method is to use periodically poled crystals, where quasi-phase-matching is achieved through ...

Spatiotemporal correlations in spontaneous parametric down conversion

open access: yes, 2014
Presented at the Solvay workshop “Bits, Quanta, and Complex Systems”. Brussels -Belgium, April 30 - May 3 (2008). Abstract: In most configurations aimed at generating entangled photons based on spontaneous parametric down conversion (SPDC), the generated pairs of photons are required to be entangled in only one degree of freedom.

Degenerate spontaneous parametric down-conversion in nonlinear metasurfaces

open access: yesOptics Express, 2023
We propose a simple scheme of degenerate spontaneous parametric down-conversion (SPDC) in nonlinear metasurfaces or photonic crystal slabs with quasi-guided modes. It employs a band crossing between even- and odd-parity quasi-guided mode bands inside the light cone (above the light line) and a selection rule in the conversion efficiency of the SPDC ...

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 ...

Towards Measuring Terahertz Photon Statistics by a Superconducting Bolometer

open access: yesSensors, 2021
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 ...

Broadband infrared light source by simultaneous parametric down-conversion

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Spontaneous parametric down-conversion is an essential tool for a quantum light source in the infrared region ranging 2–5 µm for the purpose of material identification, chemical analysis, and gas sensing.
