Entangled Two-Photon Wave Packet in a Dispersive Medium

arXiv:quant-ph/0407201 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.88.183601

Abstract

We report an experimental study of group-velocity dispersion effect on an entangled two-photon wavepacket, generated via spontaneous parametric down-conversion and propagating through a dispersive medium. Even in the case of using CW laser beam for pump, the biphoton wavepacket and the second-order correlation function spread significantly. The study and understanding of this phenomenon is of great importance for quantum information applications, such as quantum communication and distant clock synchronization.
