• Abstract: Violation of the Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt inequality for the polarization of Stokes-anti-Stokes (SaS) photon pairs near a Raman resonance is demonstrated. The pairs are generated by shining a pulsed laser on a diamond sample, where two photons of the laser are converted into a pair of photons of different frequencies. The generated pairs are collected by standard Bell analyzers and shown to be entangled in polarization, with the degree of entanglement depending on the spectral region and on the orientation of the polarization of the incident light with respect to the crystallographic orientation of the sample. This result opens up the possibility to combine quantum optics and SaS Raman spectroscopy in order to improve materials science and quantum information.

We experimentally demonstrate wave mixing between nonclassical light from the coherently cw-pumped source and another coherent wave acting on the probe.

  We have developed a theory of parametric photon generation in the waveguides coupled to arrays of quantum emitters with temporally modulated resonance frequencies. Such generation can be interpreted as a dynamical Casimir effect. We demonstrate numerically and analytically how the emission directionality and photon-photon correlations can be controlled by the phases of the modulation.
