Limits to wideband pulsed squeezing in a traveling-wave parametric amplifier with group-velocity dispersion
Optics Letters
|September 25, 2009
Abstract:
A theoretical method is developed to treat wideband pulsed squeezing in a traveling-wave parametric amplifier with group-velocity dispersion. Classical stochastic wave equations that are fully equivalent to operator equations of motion are developed and solved numerically. It is found that squeezing occurs over the entire phase-matching bandwidth, although the degree of squeezing decreases when the pump-pulse duration is shorter than the inverse of this bandwidth.

Sound as Pressure Waves
Sound waves, which are longitudinal waves, can be modeled as the displacement amplitude varying as a function of the spatial and temporal coordinates. As a column of the medium is displaced, its successive columns are also displaced. As the successive displacements differ relatively, a pressure difference with the surrounding pressure is created. The gauge pressure varies across the medium.
The pressure fluctuation depends on the difference in displacements between the successive points in the...

Standing Waves in a Cavity
A household microwave and lasers are examples of standing electromagnetic waves in a cavity. When two conducting metal plates are placed parallel at the nodal planes, it creates a cavity where standing waves are formed. The cavity between the two planes is analogous to a stretched string held at the points x = 0 and x = L. Here, the distance 'L' between the two planes must be an integer multiple of half of the wavelength. The wavelengths that satisfy this condition are given by:
Bandpass Sampling
In signal processing, bandpass sampling is an effective technique for sampling signals that have most of their energy concentrated within a narrow frequency band. This type of signal is known as a bandpass signal. The key principle of bandpass sampling involves sampling the signal at a rate that is greater than twice the signal's bandwidth to prevent aliasing.
A bandpass signal has a spectrum with a lower frequency limit, denoted as ω1, and an upper frequency limit, denoted as ω2. The spectrum...
