Title: Generation of entangled photons via parametric down-conversion in semiconductor lasers and integrated quantum photonic systems
Authors: Mikhail Tokman, Yongrui Wang, Qianfan Chen, Leon Shterengas, Alexey Belyanin
Abstract summary: We develop a nonperturbative quantum theory of parametric down-conversion of waveguide modes. We extend our theory to the regime of quantized pump fields with a new approach based on the propagation equation for the state vector. Our formalism is applicable to a wide variety of three-wave mixing propagation problems.

Abstract: We propose and design a high-brightness, ultra-compact electrically pumped GaSb-based laser source of entangled photons generated by mode-matched intracavity parametric down-conversion of lasing modes. To describe the nonlinear mixing in highly dispersive and dissipative waveguides, we develop a nonperturbative quantum theory of parametric down-conversion of waveguide modes which takes into account the effects of modal dispersion, group and phase mismatch, propagation, dissipation, and coupling to noisy reservoirs. We extend our theory to the regime of quantized pump fields with a new approach based on the propagation equation for the state vector which solves the nonperturbative boundary-value problem of the parametric decay of a quantized single-photon pump mode and can be generalized to include the effects of dissipation and noise. Our formalism is applicable to a wide variety of three-wave mixing propagation problems. It provides convenient analytic expressions for interpreting experimental results and predicting the performance of monolithic quantum photonic systems.

Nonlinear dynamical Casimir effect and Unruh entanglement in waveguide QED with parametrically modulated coupling [83.88591755871734]
We study theoretically an array of two-level qubits moving relative to a one-dimensional waveguide. When the frequency of this motion approaches twice the qubit resonance frequency, it induces parametric generation of photons and excitation of the qubits. We develop a comprehensive general theoretical framework that incorporates both perturbative diagrammatic techniques and a rigorous master-equation approach.
