Gouy-phase effects in the frequency combs of an optical parametric oscillator
arXiv:2010.11145 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevA.103.023511
Abstract
We investigate the transverse mode effects on the frequency combs generated by a type-I optical parametric oscillator (OPO) below threshold. We take the diffraction effects fully into account, considering usual OPO architectures instead of the self-imaging design. Further, we show that an OPO pumped with structured light produces multiple frequency combs simultaneously, corresponding to different combinations of spatial modes in the downconverted fields. This result may apply to the production of hybrid multipartite entanglement in the spatiotemporal modes of a single OPO.
