χ(2) nonlinear photonics in integrated microresonators

P Liu, H Wen, L Ren, L Shi, X Zhang - Frontiers of Optoelectronics, 2023 - Springer
Abstract Second-order (χ (2)) optical nonlinearity is one of the most common mechanisms for
modulating and generating coherent light in photonic devices. Due to strong photon …

Chiral Quantum Optics and Optical Nonreciprocity Based on Susceptibility‐Momentum Locking

Beating the 3 db limit for intracavity squeezing and its application to nondemolition qubit readout

W Qin, A Miranowicz, F Nori - Physical Review Letters, 2022 - APS
While the squeezing of a propagating field can, in principle, be made arbitrarily strong, the
cavity-field squeezing is subject to the well-known 3 dB limit, and thus has limited …
