Kc. Peng et al., GENERATION OF 2-MODE QUADRATURE-PHASE SQUEEZING AND INTENSITY-DIFFERENCE SQUEEZING FROM A CW-NOPO, Applied physics. B, Lasers and optics, 66(6), 1998, pp. 755-758
The configuration of a semimonolithic continuous wave nondegenerate op
tical parametric oscillator (cw-NOPO) consisting of an alpha-cut KTP c
rystal pumped by an intracavity frequency-doubled and frequency-stabil
ized Nd:YAP laser is reported. Both two-mode quadrature-phase squeezin
g of 3.7 dB and intensity-difference squeezing of 7 dB have been gener
ated from the cw-NOPO operating respectively below and above the oscil
lation threshold through the frequency down-conversion process.
