Physical Properties of Photonic Cooper Pairs Generated via Correlated Stokes–anti‐Stokes Raman Scattering

Abstract

The theoretical and experimental background for the creation of photonic Cooper pairs (PCPs) via correlated Stokes–anti‐Stokes Raman scattering is introduced, followed by experimental results on the second‐order photon time correlation g2(0) in diamond. It is shown how g2(0) changes with energy (Stokes–anti‐Stokes Raman shift), momentum (scattering angle) and excitation laser power. Both real and virtual phonon‐mediated scattering processes are addressed.
