Bright ultra-broadband fiber-based biphoton source
arXiv:2403.08571 · doi:10.1364/OL.524201
Abstract
In this Letter, we report a first experimental realization of bright ultra-broadband (180 THz) fiber-based biphoton source with widely spectrally separated signal and idler photons. Such a two-photon source is realized due to the joint use of broadband phase-matching of interacting light waves and high optical nonlinearity of a silica-core photonic crystal fiber. The high performance of the developed fiber source identifies it as an important and useful tool for a wide range of optical quantum applications.
