Electromagnetic field Classical point of view The variance of Electric Field From Maxwell equations Quantum point of view Heisenberg uncertainty principle Amplitude Time Electric-field vacuum fluctuations or vacuum noise Vacuum state

Electric Field Operator E ˆ Brief theoretical introduction We can introduce the quadrature operators amplitude quadrature phase quadrature

Vacuum state We can generate states in which the noise of the electric field at certain phases falls below that of the vacuum states Squeezed state

Applications of squeezed states Gravitational wave detectors — GEO 600 (

Applications of squeezed states Quantum Teleportation “Unconditional Quantum Teleportation”, A. Furusawa et al., Science 282, 706 (1998) In the first teleportation experiment involving continuous variables, the entangled channel was generated by the interference of two squeezed, and thus Gaussian, states with orthogonal squeezing phases: In the first teleportation experiment involving continuous variables, the entangled channel was generated by the interference of two squeezed, and thus Gaussian, states with orthogonal squeezing phases:

How to generate squeezed state? Nonlinear crystal Parametric Down-conversion (PDC) If we start from the vacuum The crystal transfers the noise from X2 to X1

The amount of squeezing obtained by a single pass of a continuous- wave pump laser through a nonlinear crystal of a reasonable size is very small. pump Squeezed vacuum Vacuum noise The OPO cavity is actively stabilized Nonlinear crystal OPO The cavity is resonant to the laser, effectively allowing multiple passing (~ 100) of the signal through the crystal The cavity is resonant to the laser, effectively allowing multiple passing (~ 100) of the signal through the crystal
