“…Quantum properties of light can be used in a myriad of applications, ranging from enhanced sensing [1,2], to spectroscopy [3,4], to metrology [5,6], and quantum information processing [7,8]. Especially in the latter case, it would be desirable to have nonclassical light sources on compact platforms with very small footprint, high degree of confinement, low power operation, and compatibility with complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) technology.…”

We report the observation of observation of all-optical squeezing in an on-chip monolithically integrated CMOS-compatible platform. Our device consists of a low loss silicon nitride microring optical parametric oscillator (OPO) with a gigahertz cavity linewidth. We measure 1.7 dB (5 dB corrected for losses) of sub-shot noise quantum correlations between bright twin beams generated in the microring four-wave-mixing OPO pumped above threshold. This experiment demonstrates a compact, robust, and scalable platform for quantum optics and quantum information experiments on-chip.

“…However, CV quantum optics more easily achieves deterministic, unconditional operation, and is therefore better suited to, or provides alternative solutions to, many tasks. CV quantum optics has been used, for example, to improve spectroscopy [12], metrology [1,2] and sensing [13,14] via quantum enhancement.…”

We present the generation of continuous-wave optical squeezing from a titanium-indiffused lithium niobate waveguide resonator. We directly measure 2.9 ± 0.1 dB of single-mode squeezing, which equates to a produced level of 4.9 ± 0.1 dB after accounting for detection losses. This device showcases the current capabilities of this waveguide architecture and precipitates more complicated integrated continuous-wave quantum devices in the continuous-variable regime.

“…As such, the number of photons lost to the environment is the same as the photon number difference between the probe and auxiliary modes. In fact, this property has been previously proposed and used for the absolute calibration of the quantum efficiency of photon counting detectors and photodiodes [31][32][33].…”
