Background technology
Compressed state optical field is a kind of very important non-classical optical state, can apply to detection, the optical precision of gravitational wave
The research fields such as measurement, the generation of entangled, quantum communication.Especially in terms of quantum communication, two single-mode squeezing state light
Or a two-mode squeezed vacuum state can be used to produce and tangle light, tangle light as the basis of quantum information and core, permissible
Complete quantum entanglement transfer, the Quantum Teleportation of ultraweak information, quantum secret communication, quantum dense coding and quantum number defect
Important principle experiment Deng the quantum communications field.
Optical parametric oscillator process is the important technical obtaining compressed state optical field, according to optics parametric oscillator (opo) quantum
The theory analysis of noise, can obtain theoretical expression (P.K.Lam, T.C.Ralph, the B.C.Buchler of quadrature component compression
er al.,Optimization and transfer of vacuum squeezing from an optical
parametric oscillator,J.Opt.B:Quantum Semiclass.Opt.1 (1999) 469-474) as follows:
Wherein, ηescIt is the escape efficiency of optics parametric oscillator (opo), under equal conditions, escape efficiency is higher, the compression of acquisition
Degree is higher.Escape efficiency is the ratio of optics parametric oscillator (opo) output coupling transmissivity and total losses, for fixing output coupling
Close transmissivity, the interior cavity loss in optical parameter chamber is less, and escape efficiency is higher.And interior cavity loss not only with tracavity optical element
Quality, and relevant with the mould matching efficiency in optical parameter chamber with flashlight.Mould matching efficiency is higher, and escape efficiency is higher, pressure
Contracting degree is higher.Therefore, the raising of the pattern match efficiency of flashlight is the key obtaining high-quality compression.Knowable to formula (a),
The parameter of another impact degree of compression is threshold value P in optical parameter chamberth, the threshold value of optics parametric oscillator (opo) is higher, obtains same
The pump power that needs of parametric gain higher, and the raising of pump power can lead to the fuel factor of nonlinear crystal to be aggravated, shadow
Ring the acquisition of squeezed light.Simultaneously need to the requirement to meet Classical Gain for the power of raising pump light, it is that pump laser proposes
Requirements at the higher level.In the case of other condition identicals, threshold value P in optical parameter chamberthWith mating of pump light and optical parameter chamber
Efficiency is relevant, and pump light is higher with the matching efficiency in optical parameter chamber, and the threshold value in optical parameter chamber is lower, is more readily available high pressure
Contracting degree light.In addition, if pump light is inefficient with the pattern match in optical parameter chamber, pump light may excite optical parameter
High-order transverse mode vibration in chamber, the efficiency that impact pump light is interacted with fundamental signal light.Therefore, obtain efficient pumping
Light and optical parameter chamber pattern match are another key factors obtaining high-quality compression.
Flashlight vibrates in optical parameter chamber, thus the fineness of the long transmission signal in scanning chamber is higher, can observe master
Mould intensity accounts for the ratio of all mode intensity, obtains pattern match efficiency.By from suitable lens group and adjustment flashlight
Direction make pattern match efficiency reach maximum, typically require pattern match efficiency be more than 99%.In single Resonant parameter chamber
In, pump light does not resonate (passing through for generally double times) in optical parameter chamber, and the fineness of transmission signal is very low, shape such as Fig. 1
Shown, mate the bad little mould leading to and be submerged in main mould it is impossible to directly observe transmission signal to obtain pattern match efficiency
Size.
In prior art, researcher would generally first change one group of optical parameter chamber hysteroscope (this chamber to pumping photoresonance
The fineness of middle pump light is high), then the direction from suitable lens group and adjustment pump light makes pattern match efficiency reach
Maximum, gains the hysteroscope that pump light is not resonated again after matching.Change hysteroscope not only to bother, and Renewal process lumen length is difficult
Exempt to change, the actual pattern match efficiency of impact.
Another kind of method of prior art is under same pump power, and the Classical Gain observing optical parameter chamber is big
Little, Classical Gain is higher, shows that pump light is higher with the pattern match efficiency in optical parameter chamber.The defect of the method is to compare
The relative size (such as pattern match efficiency is to improve or reduce) of pattern match efficiency during relatively adjusting, and be not aware that
The value (whether reaching 99%) of absolute mode matching efficiency, adjusts process blindly.Thus, not only operating process is loaded down with trivial details, and right
The measurement of pattern match efficiency is not directly perceived.
The present invention proposes a kind of method adjusting pump light and single Resonant parameter chamber pattern match, can be changed without
In the case of the hysteroscope of optical parameter chamber, using the nondegenerate optics cavity of auxiliary, and can be straight by observing the transmission signal of compensated cavity
Obtain pattern match efficiency numerical value, obtain pump light and the efficient pattern match in optical parameter chamber.Have simple, smart
Really, the advantages of directly perceived, there is important using value.
Content of the invention:
It is an object of the invention to provide one kind is easy, accurately, intuitively adjust pump light and list Resonant parameter chamber mould
The method of formula coupling.
The core concept of the present invention is that the pattern match adjusting non-resonant pump beam in optical parameter chamber is converted into
Adjust the pattern match of pump beam and the nondegenerate optics cavity of resonance auxiliary.First, using being placed in flashlight light path
