TITLE: Parametric Oscillator and Doubling Nonlinear Crystals Requesting Lab/Division/Group:

Communications Technology Laboratory Radio Frequency Technology Division High-Speed Measurements Group (672.03)

General Statement of Need The High-Speed Measurements Group in the Communications Technology Laboratory has the need to generate an optical, non-degenerate, two-mode squeezed vacuum state using an existing ultra-stable laser at 1064 nm. To accomplish this task, an Nd.YAG NPRO laser must first be frequency doubled to 532 nm followed by injection into a optical parametric oscillator (OPO) to generate a squeezed vacuum. To create the two modes, this process must be done twice with separate systems, with their final outputs combined. The frequency doubling and OPO operations each require nonlinear crystals, so a total of four crystals are needed for this task.

The nonlinear crystals must be operated in small oven designed to hold them in thermal contact, with a temperature controller to maximize efficiency. Generating a non-degenerate, two-mode squeezed vacuum state is critical for demonstrating qubit teleportation.
