Abstract
In this paper, we investigate the photon correlations and the statistical properties of light produced by an optical cavity with an embedded quantum well interacting with squeezed light. We show that the squeezed source substantially improves the intensity of the emitted light and generates a narrowing and a duplication of the spectrum peaks. With a strong dependence on frequency detuning, the cavity produces considerably squeezed radiation, and perfect squeezing is predicted for weak light–matter interactions. Furthermore, the system under consideration presents a bunching effect of the transmitted radiation resulting from weak pumping of the coherent field. The results obtained may have potential applications in the fields of very accurate measurement and quantum computing.

1. Introduction

Semiconductor microcavities with embedded quantum wells in the strong light–matter coupling regime give rise to mixed photon–exciton quasiparticles called polaritons. Indeed, because of the degeneracy lifting that appears in this regime, this system is properly described in terms of upper and lower polaritons [1, 2]. The dual photonic and excitonic character of polaritons, together with their bosonic behavior, allows us to highlight several remarkable observations in their optical properties and many intriguing phenomena, such as optical bistability, antibunching, and light squeezing [3, 4]. These properties of light are an essential resource in various applications, such as ultra-sensitive measurements [5, 6], quantum cryptography [79], gravitational-wave detection [10, 11], quantum computing [1215], sub-shot-noise interferometry [1618], and quantum limited displacement sensing [19].

The determination of the properties of light allows us to access the properties of the polariton field itself. Optical studies thus permit us to describe both the nonclassical states of light, resulting from a nonresonant interaction with the system, and to understand the quantum aspects and mechanisms of nonlinear processes. Many nonlinear processes observed in semiconductor microcavities show deep analogies with well-known cavity quantum electrodynamics (QED) systems, which have been the basis of quantum optics predictions for decades [4, 2022]. Chang-qi Cao et al [23] studied the fluorescence of Frenkel excitons in a low-density regime without the aid of the rotating-wave approximation and the Markov approximation. Additionally, Yu-xi Liu et al [24] investigated the effect of the exciton–exciton interaction on the resonance fluorescence of quantum-well excitons. Semiconductor microcavities also present increasing numbers of new features, which makes them a prototype for light–matter coupling, essentially making use of their capability to host additional interacting components. In this perspective, a new setup that generates a strong thermally resistant squeezing has emerged recently. Based on double coupled quantum wells, this system gives rise to another hybrid quasiparticle called the dipolariton. Additional excitonic nonlinearities in the cavity enhance the degree of squeezing and considerably modify the quantum dynamics of the system, compared to polariton cavities [2530].

In this article, we explore the photon correlations and quantum statistics of an optical cavity containing a quantum well and interacting with squeezed light obtained from a degenerate optical parametric oscillator (OPO). We analyze the properties of the emergent radiation from the cavity by calculating the intensity and squeezing spectra, and the second-order correlation function. The effect of the externally squeezed light is discussed in detail. The results obtained show that the injection of squeezed photons into the cavity leads to a narrowing of the peak widths and a duplication of the intensity peaks. Additionally, an important squeezing is attainable in the weak coupling regime. For strong coherent pumping, the statistics of the emitted light approach coherent statistics. However, when the coherent drive is reduced, the autocorrelation function shows a super-Poissonian behavior signature of the bunching effect.

The rest of the paper is structured as follows. In the next section, we introduce the total Hamiltonian and the evolution equations of the system under consideration. In section 3, we determine and discuss the intensity power spectrum. In section 4, we examine the squeezing effect as a function of the frequency, the detuning, and the other parameters of the system. Section 5 is devoted to the determination of the autocorrelation function and the nature of the produced light in the strong as well as the weak coupling regimes. A summary and conclusions are given in the last section.

2. Theoretical model and system evolution

We consider a quantum well placed in the antinode of a single-mode optical cavity. The cavity is driven by an external nonresonant coherent field with a frequency of ωp, and coupled to a source of squeezed light with an amplitude of λ through a material with a χ(2) nonlinearity. Given a mirror with a high quality factor, strong coupling between excitons and cavity photons is possible, leading to the creation of polaritons. The exciton density is thought to be weak enough that the excitonic nonlinearity can be ignored. As we are dealing with an open quantum system, it can be described by a master equation in Lindblad form, including a dissipation process $\dot{\rho }(t)=-{\rm{i}}[H,\rho (t)]+{{ \mathcal L }}_{\mathrm{diss}}\rho (t)$, where the total Hamiltonian is given by:$\begin{eqnarray}\begin{array}{rcl}H & = & {\rm{i}}\varepsilon ({a}^{\dagger }-a)+{\rm{i}}\displaystyle \frac{\lambda }{2}({a}^{\dagger 2}-{a}^{2})\\ & & -{{\rm{\Delta }}}_{a}{a}^{\dagger }a-{{\rm{\Delta }}}_{b}{b}^{\dagger }b+{\rm{i}}g({a}^{\dagger }b-{b}^{\dagger }a).\end{array}\end{eqnarray}$Here, ϵ is the amplitude of the coherent drive, a (a) and b (b) respectively denote the creation (annihilation) operators of the cavity and excitonic modes, and g characterizes the strength of the exciton–photon coupling. The following frequency detunings are introduced: Δa = ωpωc is the detuning between the coherent pump and the cavity mode, and Δb = ωpωex designates the detuning of the coherent drive from the excitonic frequency. The quantum Langevin equations of the two coupled modes of the system are:$\begin{eqnarray}\dot{a}=\left(-\displaystyle \frac{\kappa }{2}+{\rm{i}}{{\rm{\Delta }}}_{a}\right)a+{gb}+\lambda {a}^{\dagger }+\varepsilon +\sqrt{\kappa }{a}_{\mathrm{in}},\end{eqnarray}$$\begin{eqnarray}\dot{b}=\left(-\displaystyle \frac{\gamma }{2}+{\rm{i}}{{\rm{\Delta }}}_{b}\right)b-{ga}+\sqrt{\gamma }{b}_{\mathrm{in}},\end{eqnarray}$where κ is the decay rate of the cavity mode, while γ is the exciton spontaneous emission rate. The terms ain and bin respectively represent the Langevin noise operators for the cavity and exciton modes. To linearize the previous equations, we consider that each field is written as the sum of the mean-field value and the fluctuation term. The evolution of the fluctuations is governed by:$\begin{eqnarray}\delta \dot{a}=\left(-\displaystyle \frac{\kappa }{2}+{\rm{i}}{{\rm{\Delta }}}_{a}\right)\delta a+g\delta b+\lambda \delta {a}^{\dagger }+\sqrt{\kappa }{a}_{\mathrm{in}},\end{eqnarray}$$\begin{eqnarray}\delta \dot{b}=\left(-\displaystyle \frac{\gamma }{2}+{\rm{i}}{{\rm{\Delta }}}_{b}\right)\delta b-g\delta a+\sqrt{\gamma }{b}_{\mathrm{in}}.\end{eqnarray}$

Due to possible thermal excitations that may occur, we assume that the cavity is coupled to an excitonic thermal environment where the fluctuation correlations of the associated reservoir are given by:$\begin{eqnarray}\langle {b}_{\mathrm{in}}(t){b}_{\mathrm{in}}^{\dagger }(t^{\prime} )\rangle =(n+1)\delta (t-t^{\prime} ),\end{eqnarray}$$\begin{eqnarray}\langle {b}_{\mathrm{in}}^{\dagger }(t){b}_{\mathrm{in}}(t^{\prime} )\rangle =n\delta (t-t^{\prime} ).\end{eqnarray}$

In these δ-correlated noises, n is the mean number of excitations in the thermal bath defined by $n=\{\exp [\hslash {\omega }_{\mathrm{ex}}/({k}_{{\rm{B}}}T)]-1{\}}^{-1}$, where kB is the Boltzmann constant. The correlation functions of the reservoir for the cavity mode are written as follows:$\begin{eqnarray}\langle {a}_{\mathrm{in}}(t){a}_{\mathrm{in}}(t^{\prime} )\rangle =\langle {a}_{\mathrm{in}}^{\dagger }(t){a}_{\mathrm{in}}^{\dagger }(t^{\prime} )\rangle =0,\end{eqnarray}$$\begin{eqnarray}\langle {a}_{\mathrm{in}}^{\dagger }(t){a}_{\mathrm{in}}(t^{\prime} )\rangle =0,\end{eqnarray}$$\begin{eqnarray}\langle {a}_{\mathrm{in}}(t){a}_{\mathrm{in}}^{\dagger }(t^{\prime} )\rangle =\delta (t-t^{\prime} ).\end{eqnarray}$

Generally, it is more appropriate to work in the frequency domain, which makes the treatment of the problem easier. For this purpose, equations (4)–(5) can be rewritten in Fourier space, in a simple matrix form such as M(ω)H(ω) = K(ω), where $H(\omega )={\left(\delta a,\delta b,\delta {a}^{\dagger },\delta {b}^{\dagger }\right)}^{{\rm{T}}}$, $K(\omega )=(\sqrt{\kappa }{a}_{\mathrm{in}},\sqrt{\gamma }{b}_{\mathrm{in}}$, $\sqrt{\kappa }{a}_{\mathrm{in}}^{\dagger },\sqrt{\gamma }{b}_{\mathrm{in}}^{\dagger }{)}^{{\rm{T}}}$ and$\begin{eqnarray}M(\omega )=\left(\begin{array}{cccc}{\alpha }_{1-} & -g & -\lambda & 0\\ g & {\alpha }_{2-} & 0 & 0\\ -\lambda & 0 & {\alpha }_{1+} & -g\\ 0 & 0 & g & {\alpha }_{2+}\end{array}\right).\end{eqnarray}$

The αi matrix elements are expressed as ${\alpha }_{1\mp }(\omega )={\rm{i}}(\omega \mp {{\rm{\Delta }}}_{a})+\tfrac{\kappa }{2}$ and ${\alpha }_{2\mp }(\omega )={\rm{i}}(\omega \mp {{\rm{\Delta }}}_{b})+\tfrac{\gamma }{2}$. The general solution for the cavity field is simply a linear combination of the noises, such as:$\begin{eqnarray}\begin{array}{rcl}\delta a(\omega ) & = & \sqrt{\kappa }{{ \mathcal I }}_{1}(\omega ){a}^{\mathrm{in}}(\omega )+\sqrt{\gamma }{{ \mathcal I }}_{2}(\omega ){b}^{\mathrm{in}}(\omega )\\ & & +\sqrt{\kappa }{{ \mathcal I }}_{3}(\omega ){a}^{\mathrm{in}\dagger }(\omega )+\sqrt{\gamma }{{ \mathcal I }}_{4}(\omega ){b}^{\mathrm{in}\dagger }(\omega ),\end{array}\end{eqnarray}$

${{ \mathcal I }}_{i}(\omega )$ are given by:$\begin{eqnarray}{{ \mathcal I }}_{1}(\omega )=({g}^{2}{\alpha }_{2-}+{\alpha }_{2-}{\alpha }_{1+}{\alpha }_{2+}){{ \mathcal D }}^{-1},\end{eqnarray}$$\begin{eqnarray}{{ \mathcal I }}_{2}(\omega )=({g}^{3}+g{\alpha }_{1+}{\alpha }_{2+}){{ \mathcal D }}^{-1},\end{eqnarray}$$\begin{eqnarray}\begin{array}{rcl}{{ \mathcal I }}_{3}(\omega ) & = & (\lambda {\alpha }_{2-}{\alpha }_{2+}){{ \mathcal D }}^{-1},\\ {{ \mathcal I }}_{4}(\omega ) & = & (g\lambda {\alpha }_{2-}){{ \mathcal D }}^{-1},\end{array}\end{eqnarray}$and$\begin{eqnarray}\begin{array}{rcl}{ \mathcal D } & = & {g}^{4}+\left(-{\lambda }^{2}{\alpha }_{2-}+{g}^{2}{\alpha }_{1+}\right){\alpha }_{2+}\\ & & +{\alpha }_{1-}{\alpha }_{2-}\left({g}^{2}+{\alpha }_{1+}{\alpha }_{2+}\right).\end{array}\end{eqnarray}$

3. Intensity spectrum of the transmitted field

The determination of the intensity spectrum of the cavity field requires the calculation of the Fourier transform of the correlation ⟨δa(t + τ)δa(t)⟩:$\begin{eqnarray}\begin{array}{rcl}{S}_{\mathrm{inside}}(\omega ) & = & {\displaystyle \int }_{-\infty }^{+\infty }{\rm{d}}\tau \langle \delta {a}^{\dagger }(t+\tau )\delta a(t)\rangle {{\rm{e}}}^{-{\rm{i}}(\omega -{\omega }_{0})\tau }\\ & = & {C}_{{a}^{\dagger }a}(\omega ).\end{array}\end{eqnarray}$

The last term is defined by $2\pi {C}_{{a}^{\dagger }a}(\omega )\delta (\omega +\omega ^{\prime} )\,=\langle \delta {a}^{\dagger }(\omega )\delta a(\omega ^{\prime} )\rangle $. Using this relation and equation (12), we obtain:$\begin{eqnarray}\begin{array}{rcl}{C}_{{a}^{\dagger }a}(\omega ) & = & \kappa | {{ \mathcal I }}_{3}(-\omega ){| }^{2}+\gamma n| {{ \mathcal I }}_{2}(-\omega ){| }^{2}\\ & & +\gamma (n+1)| {{ \mathcal I }}_{4}(-\omega ){| }^{2}.\end{array}\end{eqnarray}$

We now need to express the intensity spectrum outside the cavity S(ω). This is possible via the standard input–output relation given by $\delta {a}^{\mathrm{out}}=\sqrt{\kappa }\delta a-{a}^{\mathrm{in}}$ [31, 32]. Indeed, we get $S(\omega )={C}_{{a}^{\dagger }a}^{\mathrm{out}}(\omega )=\kappa {C}_{{a}^{\dagger }a}(\omega )$. As we can see, the intra- and extracavity intensity spectra are simply linked by the cavity decay rate κ.

By considering a resonant interaction, such that Δab = Δ, in figure 1 we plot the intensity power spectrum as a function of the detuning Δ/κ in the strong coupling regime. This regime is reached when the exciton–photon constant coupling is much higher than the dissipation rates (gκ, γ). Before we introduce the nonlinear crystal (λ = 0), the spectrum shows two symmetrical resonant peaks around particular detunings given by Δ = ± g, i.e. separated by 2g, corresponding to the Rabi frequencies (figure 1(a)). When the amplitude of the squeezed drive λ reaches 0.8κ, we first observe that the whole system gains significantly in photonic intensity; then, a narrowing of the resonant peaks is achieved (figure 1(b)). For stronger squeezed pumping, λ = 1.2κ, the narrowing of the widths is much more visible. Additionally, the peaks are duplicated and the spectrum is no longer symmetrical (figure 1(c)). The number of peaks appearing in the spectrum can be explained on the basis of the eigenvalues of the system corresponding to equations (4) and (5). When the squeezed source does not act on the cavity, these eigenvalues can be approximated in the strong coupling regime as follows:$\begin{eqnarray}{\beta }_{\mathrm{1,2}}\approx -\displaystyle \frac{1}{4}\left(\gamma +\kappa \right)+{\rm{i}}\left({\rm{\Delta }}\pm g\right).\end{eqnarray}$

The real and imaginary parts of the eigenvalues determine the widths and positions of the peaks. The imaginary parts of β1,2 indicate the position of the two peaks of figure 1(a) at around ±g. When the nonlinear material comes into play, λ ≠ 0, equations (4) and (5) have two additional eigenvalues given by ${\beta }_{3}\approx -(\tfrac{\gamma }{2}+{\rm{i}}{\rm{\Delta }})$ and ${\beta }_{4}\approx -(\tfrac{\kappa }{2}+{\rm{i}}{\rm{\Delta }})$, which explains the four resonant peaks of the intermixed photonic and excitonic states of figure 1(c).

The effect of the temperature on the intensity spectrum of the transmitted field is illustrated by figure 2. For this, we fix the squeezed light amplitude at λ = 0.5κ and vary the thermal exciton mean number n = 0, 1, 2. We clearly observe that thermal excitations increase the transmitted intensity in the strong coupling regime (figure 2(a)) as well as in the weak coupling regime (figure 2(b)). For strong coupling, the temperature affects only the Rabi frequencies; the rest of the spectrum remains unchanged. For weak interactions, the maximal intensity is localized around the total resonance.

It is important to mention here that the small fluctuation approximation is applied around the steady-state value. It is therefore important to discuss the stability of the system. Stability means that when the operators of the system deviate from their corresponding mean values, they will return to these mean values if the fluctuation terms are dropped [24]. This kind of system is described by a non-Hermitian Hamiltonian H with complex eigenvalues ${{ \mathcal E }}_{k}={E}_{k}+\tfrac{{\rm{i}}}{2}{{\rm{\Gamma }}}_{k}$. These eigenvalues provide the energies Ek of the states and their lifetimes defined by the inverse of the widths Γk. The set of equations (4)–(5) has the form dU/dt = LU + F. If the matrix L has all eigenvalues such that the real part of each eigenvalue is negative, then the stability of the system is assured. From the expressions of the eigenvalues βi given above, all their real parts are negative, so the system is stable.

4. Noise spectrum: light squeezing induced by the second-order nonlinearity

In this section, we examine the squeezing of the transmitted radiation. We also discuss the dependence of the nonclassical effect on the system parameters and show how the choice of suitable parameters is crucial in order to observe optimum squeezing. This can be investigated by introducing the noise spectrum of the output field, which can be measured by photodetectors and a frequency spectrum analyzer connected to them. It is defined as [33]:$\begin{eqnarray}\begin{array}{rcl}{S}_{\theta }(\omega ) & = & {\displaystyle \int }_{-\infty }^{+\infty }\langle \delta {X}_{\theta }^{\mathrm{out}}(t+\tau )\delta {X}_{\theta }^{\mathrm{out}}(t){\rangle }_{{ss}}{{\rm{e}}}^{-{\rm{i}}(\omega -{\omega }_{0})\tau }{\rm{d}}\tau \\ & = & \langle \delta {X}_{\theta }^{\mathrm{out}}(\omega )\delta {X}_{\theta }^{\mathrm{out}}(\omega )\rangle ,\end{array}\end{eqnarray}$where ${X}_{\theta }^{\mathrm{out}}(\omega )={{\rm{e}}}^{-{\rm{i}}\theta }\delta {a}^{\mathrm{out}}(\omega )+{{\rm{e}}}^{{\rm{i}}\theta }\delta {a}^{\dagger \mathrm{out}}(\omega )$ is a field quadrature and θ designates its controllable phase. Equation (20) can then be rewritten as ${S}_{\theta }(\omega )={C}_{{aa}}^{\mathrm{out}}(\omega ){{\rm{e}}}^{-2{\rm{i}}\theta }\,+{C}_{{a}^{\dagger }{a}^{\dagger }}^{\mathrm{out}}(\omega ){{\rm{e}}}^{2{\rm{i}}\theta }+{C}_{{{aa}}^{\dagger }}^{\mathrm{out}}(\omega )+{C}_{{a}^{\dagger }a}^{\mathrm{out}}(\omega )$, where the correlation function ${C}_{{aa}}^{\mathrm{out}}(\omega )$ is given by $2\pi {C}_{{aa}}^{\mathrm{out}}(\omega )\delta (\omega +\omega ^{\prime} )\,=\langle \delta {a}^{\mathrm{out}}(\omega )\delta {a}^{\mathrm{out}}(\omega ^{\prime} )\rangle $. As we are interested in the optimal values of the nonclassical effect, we need to optimize the squeezing spectrum with respect to the phase angle θ by solving dSθ(ω)/dθ = 0. The optimal angle θopt then satisfies ${{\rm{e}}}^{2{\rm{i}}{\theta }_{\mathrm{opt}}}=-{C}_{{aa}}^{\mathrm{out}}(\omega )/| {C}_{{aa}}^{\mathrm{out}}(\omega )| $. As a result, the optimized squeezing spectrum reads as follows: ${S}_{\mathrm{opt}}(\omega )\,=1+2[{C}_{{a}^{\dagger }a}^{\mathrm{out}}(\omega )-| {C}_{{aa}}^{\mathrm{out}}(\omega )| ]$. With the help of the standard input–output relations given earlier, and after some manipulations, we obtain ${C}_{{aa}}^{\mathrm{out}}(\omega )=\kappa ({C}_{{aa}}(\omega )-{{ \mathcal I }}_{3}(-\omega ))$, where the intracavity covariance function Caa(ω) is given by:$\begin{eqnarray}\begin{array}{rcl}{C}_{{aa}}(\omega ) & = & \kappa {{ \mathcal I }}_{1}(\omega ){{ \mathcal I }}_{3}(-\omega )+\gamma (n+1){{ \mathcal I }}_{2}(\omega ){{ \mathcal I }}_{4}(-\omega )\\ & & +\gamma n{{ \mathcal I }}_{4}(\omega ){{ \mathcal I }}_{2}(-\omega ).\end{array}\end{eqnarray}$

The other correlation function, ${C}_{{a}^{\dagger }a}^{\mathrm{out}}(\omega )$, is calculated in section 3. Finally, we obtain the following analytical relation for the outside optimum noise spectrum:$\begin{eqnarray}\begin{array}{rcl}{S}_{\mathrm{opt}}(\omega ) & = & 1+2\kappa (\kappa | {{ \mathcal I }}_{3}(-\omega ){| }^{2}\\ & & +\gamma n| {{ \mathcal I }}_{2}(-\omega ){| }^{2}+\gamma (n+1)\\ & & \times | {{ \mathcal I }}_{4}(-\omega ){| }^{2})-2\kappa | (\kappa {{ \mathcal I }}_{1}(\omega ){{ \mathcal I }}_{3}(-\omega )\\ & & +\gamma (n+1)\times {{ \mathcal I }}_{2}(\omega ){{ \mathcal I }}_{4}(-\omega )\\ & & +\gamma n{{ \mathcal I }}_{4}(\omega ){{ \mathcal I }}_{2}(-\omega )-{{ \mathcal I }}_{3}(-\omega ))| .\end{array}\end{eqnarray}$

In figure 3, we show Sopt as a function of the detuning Δ/κ and the frequency (ωω0)/κ in the strong coupling regime for λ = 0.5κ. The plot shows that the spectrum consists of four symmetrical resonant peaks corresponding to emitted squeezed photons on the output side of the cavity. This can be identified by the values of Sopt that are lower than unity. Away from these particular resonances, the light is coherent (Sopt = 1). Interestingly, we observe that maximal squeezing is realized either at a zero frequency for the Δ/κ ± g points, or at zero detuning for ωω0 = ±g. The magnitude of squeezing in these peaks approaches 45%. This particular symmetry could be very useful for experimental investigations and helps to easily identify the maximal squeezing.

In a more generalized picture, we now consider different detunings. The variation of Sopt against Δa/κ and Δb/κ at a temperature of zero is depicted in figure 4, which shows two branches of squeezed light for strong exciton–photon coupling. Here, the amount of the nonclassical effect is more than 80%. An interesting behavior we observed is that the larger the pump–exciton detuning Δb, the higher the squeezing value. This means that to increase the degree of squeezing, we should tune the frequency of the coherent drive to be far from the excitonic mode frequency (figure 4(b)). Another important discovery concerns the fact that squeezing cannot occur when the coherent pumping is resonant with the excitonic mode (Δb = 0). Indeed, nonresonant excitation with respect to Δb appears to be a necessary condition for the emergence of the nonclassical effect in this system. For weak light–matter interactions, gκ, γ, the dynamical behavior of the system changes. The noise spectrum now exhibits a single branch of squeezed light around the pump–cavity resonance (Δa = 0) (figure 4(c)). In contrast to the case of strong coupling, the squeezing is very slightly dependent on the pump–exciton detuning, Δb. This is better illustrated by figure 4(d), where perfect squeezing is possible with an appropriate choice of the system parameters.

We now turn our attention to the effect of thermal excitations on the squeezed radiation. To this end, we fix the squeeze amplitude at λ = 0.5κ and elevate the temperature from n = 0 to n = 1 as depicted in figure 5(a). We first observe that the amount of squeezing is reduced from 35% to 15% for n = 0.3. Then, for n = 1 the squeezing vanishes completely and some fluctuations appear above the shot noise level (Sopt > 1). The excess of noise appears at the Rabi frequency. Obviously, a further increase of the thermal exciton mean number will lead to higher values of Sopt. While the squeezing totally disappears in some regions, it is resistant to this effect near the pump–cavity resonance and for high values of Δb (figure 5(b)). In conclusion, the temperature has a negative effect on the stability of the nonclassical light, and the degree of squeezing strongly relies on the thermal bath temperature.

(b) Density plot of Sopt as a function of Δa/κ and Δb/κ for n = 1.5. The other parameters are set to γ = κ, λ = 0.5κ, and g = 10κ. Even though the temperature elevation tends to destroy the squeezing, there are two frequency zones that exhibit higher resistance to this effect than the others.


Figure 6 illustrates the variation of the optimum squeezing spectrum versus the detunings for the stronger squeezed light amplitude given by λ = 1.5κ. As can be seen from this figure, the branches of squeezing outlined earlier become wider. This widening is accompanied by a duplication, and the two resulting branches correspond to optimal squeezing. This feature is further identified in figure 6(b), in which, for fixed Δb/κ, the duplicated peaks show the same amount of squeezing. Again, the choice of a large detuning, Δb, improves the nonclassical effect (dashed line).

As shown above, the system under consideration is able to generate large amount of squeezing. This light property is very useful for precise measurements. According to Heisenberg's uncertainty principle, the precision of any physical-quantity measurement is limited by quantum fluctuations appearing in the field which lead to the standard quantum limit. This quantum limit can be overcome using squeezed light, thus enhancing the measurement accuracy. Squeezed light is a typical nonclassical light, which shows reduced noise in one field quadrature component [34]. Furthermore, quantum noise reduction to levels lower than the shot-noise level is also used to avoid the loss of encoded information during quantum computation, leading to an accumulation of errors. Indeed, to reduce information loss, scientists have been experimenting with squeezing light by removing tiny quantum-level fluctuations. Kosuke Fukui et al [13] developed an approach that involves squeezing light by removing error-prone quantum bits when quantum bits cluster together.

5. Correlation function and the nature of the produced light

The second-order correlation function measures the degree of coherence between two fields. It is defined as the intensity–intensity correlation. In quantum mechanics, the autocorrelation function of the cavity field is defined as [35]:$\begin{eqnarray}{g}^{(2)}(t,t+\tau )=\displaystyle \frac{\langle {a}^{\dagger }(t){a}^{\dagger }(t+\tau )a(t+\tau )a(t)\rangle }{\langle {a}^{\dagger }a{\rangle }^{2}}.\end{eqnarray}$

In the stationary regime, the previous function only depends on the time delay τ, thus g(2)(t, t + τ) ≡ g(2)(τ) = l(2)(τ)/l(2)( ∞ ). The cavity field operator is split into the sum of an average value ⟨a(t)⟩ and a fluctuation operator δ a(t), where ⟨δa(t)⟩ = 0. For a Gaussian distribution field, the correlation of the fluctuations of any three operators o1, o2, and o3 of the field is zero: ⟨δo1δo2δo3⟩ = 0. Additionally, the correlation of the fluctuations of four operators o1, o2, o3, and o4 is reduced to [3537]:$\begin{eqnarray}\begin{array}{rcl}\langle \delta {o}_{1}\delta {o}_{2}\delta {o}_{3}\delta {o}_{4}\rangle & = & \langle \delta {o}_{1}\delta {o}_{2}\rangle \langle \delta {o}_{3}\delta {o}_{4}\rangle \\ & & +\langle \delta {o}_{1}\delta {o}_{3}\rangle \langle \delta {o}_{2}\delta {o}_{4}\rangle \\ & & +\langle \delta {o}_{1}\delta {o}_{4}\rangle \langle \delta {o}_{2}\delta {o}_{3}\rangle .\end{array}\end{eqnarray}$

The Gaussian approximation assumes that the field distribution is slightly modified compared to a Gaussian distribution. The two last relations are therefore valid. In this limit, the l(2)(τ) function can be expressed as:$\begin{eqnarray}\begin{array}{rcl}{l}^{(2)}(\tau ) & = & {k}_{1}(\tau )+{k}_{2}(\tau )+{k}_{3}(\tau )\\ & & +{k}_{4}(\tau )+\langle {a}^{\dagger }{\rangle }^{2}\langle a{\rangle }^{2},\end{array}\end{eqnarray}$with:$\begin{eqnarray}{k}_{1}(\tau )=2\mathrm{Re}\{{C}_{{a}^{\dagger }a}(\tau )\}\langle {a}^{\dagger }\rangle \langle a\rangle ,\end{eqnarray}$$\begin{eqnarray}{k}_{2}(\tau )=2\mathrm{Re}\{{C}_{{aa}}(\tau )\langle {a}^{\dagger }{\rangle }^{2}\},\end{eqnarray}$$\begin{eqnarray}{k}_{3}(\tau )=\{\langle \delta {a}^{\dagger }(\tau )\delta a(\tau )\rangle +\langle \delta {a}^{\dagger }(0)\delta a(0)\rangle \}\langle {a}^{\dagger }\rangle \langle a\rangle ,\end{eqnarray}$$\begin{eqnarray}\begin{array}{rcl}{k}_{4}(\tau ) & = & {\left({C}_{{aa}}(\tau )\right)}^{* }{C}_{{aa}}(\tau )+{\left({C}_{{a}^{\dagger }a}(\tau )\right)}^{* }{C}_{{a}^{\dagger }a}(\tau )\\ & & +{\left({C}_{{a}^{\dagger }a}(0)\right)}^{* }{C}_{{a}^{\dagger }a}(0).\end{array}\end{eqnarray}$

The fluctuations in the cavity field are assumed to be very weak compared to the mean values, so that the inequality ⟨δa(τ)δa(0)⟩ ≪ ⟨a⟩⟨a⟩ is fulfilled. As a consequence, we can neglect the k4 function, as it contains fourth-order fluctuation quantities. Additionally, it is possible to show in a straightforward manner that k3(τ) + ⟨a2a2 ≃ ⟨aa2. We then obtain a simple linearized expression of the autocorrelation function:$\begin{eqnarray}{g}^{(2)}(\tau )\simeq 1+\displaystyle \frac{{k}_{1}(\tau )+{k}_{2}(\tau )}{{\left(\langle a\rangle \langle {a}^{\dagger }\rangle \right)}^{2}},\end{eqnarray}$

Ia = ⟨a⟩⟨a⟩ is the steady-state photonic intensity. In order to simplify the calculation, we use a bilateral Laplace transformation by setting p = iω. This allows us to obtain more manageable expressions than those of the Fourier transformation. The evolution equations of the fluctuations are now:$\begin{eqnarray}M(p)\left(\begin{array}{c}\delta a(p)\\ \delta b(p)\\ \delta {a}^{\dagger }(p)\\ \delta {b}^{\dagger }(p)\end{array}\right)=\left(\begin{array}{c}\sqrt{\kappa }{a}^{\mathrm{in}}(p)\\ \sqrt{\gamma }{b}^{\mathrm{in}}(p)\\ \sqrt{\kappa }{a}^{\mathrm{in}\dagger }(p)\\ \sqrt{\gamma }{b}^{\mathrm{in}\dagger }(p)\end{array}\right).\end{eqnarray}$

The evolution matrix M(p) is expressed in Laplace space as follows:$\begin{eqnarray}M(p)=\left(\begin{array}{cccc}{\beta }_{1-} & -g & -\lambda & 0\\ g & {\beta }_{2-} & 0 & 0\\ -\lambda & 0 & {\beta }_{1+} & -g\\ 0 & 0 & g & {\beta }_{2+}\end{array}\right),\end{eqnarray}$with ${\beta }_{1\mp }(p)=p\mp {\rm{i}}{{\rm{\Delta }}}_{a}+\tfrac{\kappa }{2}$ and ${\beta }_{2\mp }(p)=p\mp {\rm{i}}{{\rm{\Delta }}}_{b}+\tfrac{\gamma }{2}$.

The solution of equation (31) for δa(p) is a linear combination of the incoming fluctuations that can be expressed in a general form as follows:$\begin{eqnarray}\begin{array}{rcl}\delta a(p) & = & \sqrt{\kappa }{{ \mathcal I }}_{1}(p){a}^{\mathrm{in}}(p)+\sqrt{\gamma }{{ \mathcal I }}_{2}(p){b}^{\mathrm{in}}(p)\\ & & +\sqrt{\kappa }{{ \mathcal I }}_{3}(p){a}^{\mathrm{in}\dagger }(p)+\sqrt{\gamma }{{ \mathcal I }}_{4}(p){b}^{\mathrm{in}\dagger }(p).\end{array}\end{eqnarray}$

The intracavity covariances Caa (p) and ${C}_{{a}^{\dagger }a}(p)$ are written as:$\begin{eqnarray}\begin{array}{rcl}{C}_{{aa}}(p) & = & \kappa {{ \mathcal I }}_{1}(p){{ \mathcal I }}_{3}(-p)+\gamma (n+1){{ \mathcal I }}_{2}(p){I}_{4}(-p)\\ & & +\gamma n{{ \mathcal I }}_{4}(p){{ \mathcal I }}_{2}(-p),\end{array}\end{eqnarray}$$\begin{eqnarray}\begin{array}{rcl}{C}_{{a}^{\dagger }a}(p) & = & \kappa {{ \mathcal I }}_{3}^{* }(p){{ \mathcal I }}_{3}(-p)+\gamma n{{ \mathcal I }}_{2}^{* }(p){{ \mathcal I }}_{2}(-p)\\ & & +\gamma (n+1){{ \mathcal I }}_{4}^{* }(p){{ \mathcal I }}_{4}(-p).\end{array}\end{eqnarray}$

The Laplace transform of the real part of a given function in τ gives the real part of the function in the variable p. Based on this property, the correlation function is given by:$\begin{eqnarray}{g}^{(2)}(p)=1+\displaystyle \frac{2\mathrm{Re}\{{I}_{a}{C}_{{a}^{\dagger }a}(p)+\langle {a}^{\dagger }{\rangle }^{2}{C}_{{aa}}(p)\}}{{I}_{a}^{2}}.\end{eqnarray}$

We now decompose the ${{ \mathcal I }}_{i}(p)$ functions into a ratio of two polynomials in p as ${{ \mathcal I }}_{i=\mathrm{1,2},\mathrm{3,4}}(p)={\zeta }_{i=1,2,3,4}^{{\prime} }(p)/\zeta (p)$, where $\zeta (p)=\det (M(p))$. Then, g(2)(p) becomes:$\begin{eqnarray}\begin{array}{rcl}{g}^{(2)}(p) & = & 1+\displaystyle \frac{2}{{I}_{a}{\zeta }^{* }(p)\zeta (-p)}\mathrm{Re}[\kappa {\zeta }_{3}^{{\prime} * }(p){\zeta }_{3}^{{\prime} }(-p)\\ & & \,+\gamma n{\zeta }_{2}^{{\prime} * }(p){\zeta }_{2}^{{\prime} }(-p)+\gamma (n+1){\zeta }_{4}^{{\prime} * }(p){\zeta }_{4}^{{\prime} }(-p)]\\ & & \,+\displaystyle \frac{2}{{I}_{a}^{2}\zeta (p)\zeta (-p)}\mathrm{Re}[\langle {a}^{\dagger }{\rangle }^{2}(\kappa {\zeta }_{1}^{{\prime} }(p){\zeta }_{3}^{{\prime} }(-p)\\ & & \,+\gamma (n+1){\zeta }_{2}^{{\prime} }(p){\zeta }_{4}^{{\prime} }(-p)+\gamma n{\zeta }_{4}^{{\prime} }(p){\zeta }_{2}^{{\prime} }(-p))].\end{array}\end{eqnarray}$

The final step consists of the determination of the inverse Laplace transform of the previous function. For this, we first calculate the poles of g(2)(p). After that, we use the symmetry property of the autocorrelation function, which means that only poles with negative real parts are considered.

The second-order correlation function of the transmitted light is depicted as a function of the normalized time in figure 7. We observe that in the strong coupling regime, it is a damped oscillatory function. After long delays g(2)(τ) → 1. For strong pumping, ϵ = 100κ, the oscillation amplitudes of g(2)(τ) are very weak. The cavity photon field statistics approach coherent statistics (figure 7(a)). By reducing the pumping to ϵ = 5κ, the oscillation amplitudes increase. At the initial moment, the value of g(2)(0) is greater than unity, indicating a super-Poissonian behavior leading to a classical bunching effect (figure 7(b)). The photons tend to leave the cavity through the end mirror in groups. To see the effect of more strongly squeezed light, we increase λ to 2κ. Consequently, the number of oscillations decreases and the function is rapidly damped toward the stationary regime for relatively short delays (figure 7(c)). Moreover, the magnitude of the bunching effect is reduced. It should be noted that in the strong-driving limit, the second-order nonlinearity is unable to generate antibunched light as was observed with third-order nonlinearities. Furthermore, for a linear system, the cavity transforms the incoming coherent state to another coherent state (g(2)(τ) = 1). In the case of weak light–matter coupling (g = κ/10), the oscillatory behavior of the function vanishes and the emitted radiation is coherent (figure 7(d)). We note here that a dipolariton cavity interacting with an OPO exhibits a similar behavior and generates the same type of light [30].

Finally, we note that when the exciton–exciton interaction is non-negligible, the intensity and noise spectra become excitonic intensity dependant. It has been demonstrated that in the absence of exciton–exciton interactions, the exciton has no resonance fluorescence. The exciton–exciton interaction switches on resonance fluorescence, and the fluorescence spectrum is split into two peaks when the pumping field exceeds a critical value [24]. The excitonic nonlinearity may lead also to nonclassical statistical properties, and the emitted light is antibunched [4].

6. Conclusions

We studied a system consisting of an optical cavity that includes a quantum well interacting with a second-order nonlinear crystal. We have shown that the intensity spectrum is formed of two peaks centered around particular frequency detunings. The application of the squeezed source strongly affects the spectrum by causing narrowing and duplication of the resonant peaks. The noise spectrum exhibits two branches of squeezed light. Importantly, an increase of the pump–exciton detuning strongly enhances the degree of squeezing. We have also shown that the weak coupling regime is favorable to perfectly squeezed radiation. Despite the fact that interactions with the thermal environment tend to destroy the nonclassical effect, there are particular frequency detunings that permit us to observe high resistance to increasing temperatures.

For weak coherent pumping, the second-order correlation function is a damped oscillatory function. It shows super-Poissonian statistics leading to bunched light. An increase in the squeezed light amplitude reduces the oscillations of the function and the magnitude of the bunching. The oscillatory behavior completely vanishes in the weak coupling regime and the transmitted light becomes almost coherent.
