Problems solved by technology

[0004] The current method of generating frequency sheet entangled photon pairs through bulk second-order nonlinear crystals usually needs to be realized through a spatial optical path, which cannot meet the needs of system miniaturization and integration; and the third-order nonlinearity through spontaneous four-wave mixing process The process produces entangled photon pairs relatively inefficiently, resulting in a low rate of entangled photon pairs
At the same time, in the scheme of using the spontaneous four-wave mixing effect to generate frequency plate entangled photon pairs, the method of injecting energy-time entangled photon pairs into the non-equilibrium Mach-Zehnder interferometer is a main technical route. The pure output of this method is The associated photon pairs are in a mixed state, the purity of the frequency sheet entanglement is low, and time domain filtering is required in the application process

Abstract

The invention relates to a frequency-bin entangled two-photon source, and belongs to the technical field of quantum information science. According to the frequency chip entangled two-photon source, on the basis of an improved Sagnac ring structure, correlated photon pairs are generated through a second harmonic generation process and a spontaneous parametric down-conversion process which are cascaded in a cross-polarization laser bidirectional pumping optical fiber coupling second-order nonlinear crystal waveguide; and frequency chip entangled photon pairs are generated through polarization control, quantum interference and polarization beam splitting.
