Article Abstract

Two-photon entangled generation is used to produce an entangled photon source which is a key and core element concerning the technology applications of quantum computing, quantum communication, and quantum precision measurement. In this work, we have deduced the formulas of dynamic susceptibility and phase-matching angle of two-photon entangled generation in nonlinear optical crystals. The formulas are employed to compute the susceptibilities and phase-matching angles of these optical processes for uniaxial and biaxial crystals. The susceptibility magnitude and phase-matching condition of two-photon entangled generation affect the performance of the source. The calculated results by these formulas are employed to study properties and estimate the performance of an entangled photon source. In this way, we discuss the phase matching among waves and working wavelength in an entangled source that affects the efficiency of satellite communication with the ground during the day and night.

The indistinguishable photon-pair sources are valuable in many quantum information applications, such as quantum microscopy, quantum synchronization, and quantum metrology. Based on cascaded sum-frequency generation (SFG) and spontaneous parametric downconversion (SPDC) processes, we propose and demonstrate a scheme for the generation of spatially separated broadband indistinguishable photon pairs in the telecom band by using only one piece of a fiber-pigtailed periodically poled lithium niobate waveguide in a modified Sagnac loop. The measured joint spectral intensity of the generated entangled photon pairs is 7.

Leveraging the unique properties of quantum entanglement, quantum entanglement distribution networks support multiple quantum information applications and are essential to the development of quantum networks. However, practical implementation poses fundamental challenges to network scalability and flexibility. Here, we propose a reconfigurable entanglement distribution network scheme based on tunable multipump excitation of a spontaneous four-wave mixing (SFWM) source and a time-sharing method.

Exploring the electronic states of molecules through excitation with entangled and classical photon pairs offers new insights into the nature of light-matter interactions and stimulates the development of quantum spectroscopy. Here, we address the importance of temporal entanglement of light in two-photon absorption (TPA) upon the S → S transition by the green fluorescent protein (GFP)─a key molecular unit in the bioimaging of living cells. By invoking a two-level model applicable when permanent dipole pathways dominate the two-photon transition, we derive a convenient closed-form analytical expression for the entangled TPA strength.

Broadband quantum light is a vital resource for quantum metrology and spectroscopy applications such as quantum optical coherence tomography or entangled two photon absorption. For entangled two photon absorption in particular, very high photon flux combined with high time-frequency entanglement is crucial for observing a signal. So far these conditions could be met by using high power lasers driving degenerate, type 0 bulk-crystal spontaneous parametric down conversion (SPDC) sources.
