多模光学参量振荡器对量子光学的贡献

Contributions to the Quantum Optics of Multi-mode Optical Parametric Oscillators

Carlos Navarrete-Benlloch

摘要:

本论文主要致力于研究光学参量振荡器(OPO)的量子特性,OPO是当今最高质量的量子相关光源,除了经典光学领域的基本工具外,还允许将激光转换为几乎所有的光谱区域。就其内容而言,这篇论文可能看起来有点不寻常,因为它的三分之二致力于量子光学的独立(尽管密集)介绍,包括谐振子的量子物理学,开放光学腔中电磁场的量子化及其输出光的检测,以及OPO的基本模型和已知特性的推导。因此,所有的原始结果的论文包含在最后三分之一,它被证明,所有的OPO可以被理解为多模器件,其量子特性可以解释的三个基本现象:分叉压缩,自发对称性破缺,和泵钳位,这是通过简单的,但现实的例子介绍。

英文摘要:

This thesis is mainly devoted to the study of the quantum properties of optical parametric oscillators (OPOs), which are nowadays the sources of the highest-quality quantum-correlated light, apart from fundamental tools in the classical-optics realm, allowing for the conversion of laser light into virtually all regions of the optical spectrum. Regarding its content, the thesis might seem a bit unusual, because two thirds of it are devoted to a self-contained (though dense) introduction to quantum optics, including the quantum physics of harmonic oscillators, the quantization of the electromagnetic field in an open optical cavity and the detection of its output light, as well as the derivation of the basic model and known properties of OPOs. Hence, all the original results of the thesis are contained in the last third, were it is proven that all OPOs can be understood as multi-mode devices whose quantum properties can be explained in terms of three basic phenomena: bifurcation squeezing, spontaneous symmetry breaking, and pump clamping, which are introduced through simple, yet realistic examples.
