We theoretically propose a scheme to achieve all-optical nonreciprocal magnon lasing action in a composite cavity optomagnonical system considering of a yttrium iron garnet sphere coupled to a parametric resonator. The magnon lasing behavior can be engendered via the magnon-induced Brillouin scattering process in the cavity optomagnonical system. By unidirectionally driving the χ-nonlinear resonator with a classical coherent field, the squeezed effect occurs only in the selected direction due to the phase-matching condition, resulting in asymmetric detuning between the two resonators, which is the physical mechanism to generate a nonreciprocal magnon laser.

We introduce the concept of a squeezed laser, in which a squeezed cavity mode develops a macroscopic photonic occupation due to stimulated emission. Above the lasing threshold, the emitted light retains both the spectral purity of a laser and the photon correlations characteristic of quadrature squeezing. Our proposal, implementable in optical setups, relies on a combination of the parametric driving of the cavity and the excitation by a broadband squeezed vacuum to achieve lasing behavior in a squeezed cavity mode.

We present performance manipulation of the squeezed coherent light source based on four-wave mixing (FWM) in alkaline-earth atoms. We investigate the dynamic response of the system and the spectroscopic feature of lasing generated by resonantly enhanced wave-mixing in coherently prepared system. In this method, the spectral purity and stability of the wave-mixing lasing can be manipulated at will by choosing optimal laser parameters.

Plasmonic surface lattice resonances (SLRs) are mixed light-matter states emergent in a system of periodically arranged metallic nanoparticles (NPs) under the constraint that the array spacing is able to support a standing wave of optical-frequency light. The properties of SLRs derive from two separate physical effects; the electromagnetic (plasmonic) response of metal NPs and the electromagnetic states (photonic cavity modes) associated with the array of NPs. Metal NPs, especially free-electron metals such as silver, gold, aluminum, and alkali metals, support optical-frequency electron density oscillations known as localized surface plasmons (LSPs).

Nanoelectromechanical systems (NEMS) that operate in the megahertz (MHz) regime allow energy transducibility between different physical domains. For example, they convert optical or electrical signals into mechanical motions and vice versa. This coupling of different physical quantities leads to frequency-tunable NEMS resonators via electromechanical non-linearities.
