摘要： An apparatus includes an optical medium characterized by a third-order nonlinear optical susceptibility. The apparatus also includes a pump light source in optical communication with the optical medium and configured to send a pump light beam to the optical medium. The pump light beam includes a pulsed light beam. The apparatus also includes a drive light source in optical communication with the optical medium and configured to send a drive light beam to the optical medium. The drive light beam includes a continuous wave (CW) light beam. The pump light beam and the drive light beam are configured to generate a signal light beam in a squeezed state of light via spontaneous four-wave mixing in the optical medium.

摘要： A photonic device comprises a plurality of resonators and a plurality of optical channels. Each resonator from the plurality of resonators has a set of resonance frequencies independently selected from a set of resonance frequencies of each remaining resonator from the plurality of resonators. Each resonator from the plurality of resonators lacks substantially any linear coupling between each remaining resonator from the plurality of resonators. The plurality of resonators defines a spatial overlap region between at least two resonators from the plurality of resonators such that nonlinear optical processes are substantially optimized during operation. A plurality of optical channels is operatively coupled to the plurality of resonators. The plurality of optical channels is configured to receive light from the plurality resonators and configured to send light into the plurality of resonators.
