Embodiment Construction

[0027] The present invention will be described in further detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments, but the present invention is not limited to the embodiments. This example is a method and device for generating a frequency entangled light source based on double waveguide cascading.

[0028] Pump laser 1: 780nm semiconductor laser

[0029] PPLN waveguide 2: the length is 10 mm, and the polarization period is 8.3 μm. Under the action of the pump laser generated by the pump laser 1, spontaneous parametric down-conversion occurs to generate signal photons s1 and idler photons i1 whose polarizations are orthogonal to each other.

[0030] Wavelength Division Multiplexer (WDM) 3: After the first-order parametric down-conversion, the PPLN waveguide 2 contains the remaining pump light that does not participate in the SPDC process. The wavelength division multiplexer (WDM) 3 is a high-performance filtering device. The pump light and the two-photon pai...

The efficiency and the quality of the quantum entanglement light source are integrally improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of quantum information, and specifically relates to a device and method for generating entangled light sources based on multi-waveguide cascading. Background technique [0002] Frequency entanglement light source has a wide range of applications in the fields of quantum time synchronization, quantum key distribution, quantum computing, quantum communication and quantum precision measurement. At present, the most commonly used and effective method for generating entangled light sources is the spontaneous parametric down conversion (SPDC) process based on the second-order nonlinear effect. The physical process can be described as a beam of high-frequency pump light acting on a nonlinear medium to generate a pair of low-frequency Photons are commonly referred to as signal photons and idler photons. Photon pairs generated using spontaneous parametric down-conversion processes typically have polarization, angula...
