(Abstract | Links | BibTeX | タグ: entanglement, optical cavity, quantum frequency comb, quantum internet) @article{Fujimoto:22, We demonstrate a distribution of frequency-multiplexed polarization-entangled photon pairs over 16 frequency channels using demultiplexers for the signal and idler photons with a frequency spacing of 25 GHz, which is compatible with dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) technology. Unlike conventional frequency-multiplexed photon-pair distribution by a broadband spontaneous parametric down-conversion (SPDC) process, we use photon pairs produced as a biphoton frequency comb by SPDC inside a cavity where one of the paired photons is confined. Owing to the free spectral range of 12.5 GHz and the finesse of over 10 of the cavity, the generated photons having a narrow linewidth in one channel are separated well from those in the other channels, which minimizes channel cross-talk in advance. The observed fidelities of the photon pairs range from 81 % to 96 % in the 16 channels. The results show the usefulness of the polarization-entangled biphoton frequency comb for frequency-multiplexed entanglement distribution via a DWDM system. |

(Abstract | Links | BibTeX | タグ: quantum frequency comb, quantum internet) @article{Ikuta2022, We show a concept of optical frequency tweezers for tweezing light in the optical frequency domain with a high resolution, which is the frequency version of optical tweezers for the spatial manipulation of microscopic objects. We report a proof-of-principle experiment via frequency conversion inside a cavity only for the converted light. Owing to the atypical configuration, the experiment successfully achieves the tweezing operation in the frequency domain, which picks light at a target frequency from the frequency-multiplexed input light and converts it to a different frequency, without touching any other light sitting in different frequency positions and shaking the frequency by the pump light. |

Rev. Lett., vol. 123, pp. 193603, 2019. (Abstract | Links | BibTeX | タグ: optical cavity, quantum frequency comb, quantum internet) @article{Ikuta2019, We demonstrate a frequency multiplexed photon pair generation based on a quadratic nonlinear optical waveguide inside a cavity which confines only signal photons without confining idler photons and the pump light. We monolithically constructed the photon pair generator by a periodically poled lithium niobate (PPLN) waveguide with a high reflective coating for the signal photons around 1600 nm and with antireflective coatings for the idler photons around 1520 nm and the pump light at 780 nm at the end faces of the PPLN waveguide. We observed a comblike photon pair generation with a mode spacing of the free spectral range of the cavity. Unlike the conventional multiple resonant photon pair generation experiments, the photon pair generation was incessant within a range of 80 nm without missing teeth due to a mismatch of the energy conservation and the cavity resonance condition of the photons, resulting in over 1000-mode frequency multiplexed photon pairs in this range. |
