研究目的
Investigating the limiting factors for measuring spatial squeezing in bright twin beams generated with a four-wave mixing process in an atomic vapor cell using an EMCCD camera.
研究成果
The study identifies critical parameters for optimizing spatial squeezing in bright twin beams generated with a four-wave mixing process. It demonstrates the importance of fast image acquisition rates to mitigate classical technical noise and highlights the potential of spatial quantum correlations for applications in quantum metrology and imaging.
研究不足
The study is limited by the saturation of the EMCCD camera and the presence of scattered pump photons, which can degrade the spatial squeezing. Additionally, the need to acquire images at a fast rate to overcome classical technical noise poses a challenge.
1：Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study involves generating bright twin beams of light with a four-wave mixing process in a hot rubidium vapor cell and measuring spatial squeezing with an EMCCD camera. The methodology includes optimizing various parameters such as cell temperature, pump power, and laser detunings to achieve maximum spatial squeezing.
2：Sample Selection and Data Sources:
The experiment uses a hot 85Rb vapor cell at a temperature of 110°C. The pump and probe beams are derived from the same Ti-sapphire laser, frequency locked to a reference vapor cell.
3：List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
The setup includes a Ti-sapphire laser, acousto-optic modulators (AOMs), polarizing beam splitters (PBS), lenses, and an EMCCD camera (ProEM-HS: 512BX3).

Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
4. Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow: The experiment involves pulsing the input probe and pump beams with AOMs, acquiring images of the twin beams with the EMCCD camera, and analyzing the spatial intensity fluctuations to calculate the noise ratio, which quantifies the spatial squeezing.
5：Data Analysis Methods:
The noise ratio is calculated by subtracting two consecutive frames to obtain the spatial intensity fluctuations of the probe and conjugate beams, followed by spatial statistics to quantify the spatial squeezing.
