Squeezing Light With Atoms: Generation Of Non-Classical Light Via Four-Wave Mixing, Nathan Super
Science Research Symposium
The goal of the project is to produce a pair of polarization-entangled light fields using four-wave mixing in hot Rb vapor. In this process, interaction of atoms with near-resonant strong control optical field results in strong amplification of a nearly-collinear probe optical field and in generation of a quantum correlated conjugate Stokes optical field. In order to establish the quantum correlation between the Stokes and probe fields, we have adopted a homodyne detection scheme. If the differential noise between the Stokes and probe fields is below the quantum noise limit, then intensity fluctuation entanglement has been achieved, and it is …

Arts & Sciences Open Educational Resources
Following the spirit of the new curriculum, it was decided to convert the Modern Physics course, Physics 201, into a course with a COLL200 attribute. The course covered the basics of relativity and quantum mechanics, and typically has 50-60 students. It was desired to include a substantial discussion of the historical and social significance of the material.
