Generation and compression of chirped biphotons.
2010
We describe an experiment demonstrating the radarlike technique of "chirp and compress." Chirped biphotons are generated using a quasi-phase-matched nonlinear crystal where the phase-matched frequency varies linearly with position. Sum frequency generation is used to measure the amplitude of the biphoton wave function. As compared to a nonchirped crystal, compression and an increase in summing efficiency of a factor of 5 is observed.
