Chirped Biphotons and Their Compression in Optical Fibres
arXiv:0904.4461 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.103.193602
Abstract
We show that broadband biphoton wavepackets produced via Spontaneous Parametric Down-Conversion (SPDC) in crystals with linearly aperiodic poling can be easily compressed in time using the effect of group-velocity dispersion in optical fibres. This result could foster important developments in quantum metrology and lithography.
