With a frequency doubler and an optical parametric oscillator based on PPKTP crystals, we observed a squeezing level of -2.75 +- 0.14 dB and an anti-squeezing level of +7.00 +- 0.13 dB. This system could be utilized for demonstrating storage and retrieval of the squeezed vacuum, which is important for the ultra-precise measurement of atomic spins as well as quantum information processing.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2006-03-23T18:05:40.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "continuous-wave squeezed vacuum resonant", "quantum information", "report generation", "atomic spins", "optical parametric oscillator" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "doi": "10.1364/OL.31.002344", "journal": "Optics Letters", "year": 2006, "month": "Aug", "volume": 31, "number": 15, "pages": 2344 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 4, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2006OptL...31.2344T" } } }
