Effects of correlations between the real and imaginary parts of quantum noise on intensity fluctuation for a saturation laser model

This paper studies the effects of cross-correlations between the real and imaginary parts of quantum noise on the laser intensity in a saturation laser model. It derives the analytic expressions of the intensity correlation function C（τ） and the associated relaxation time T（C） in the case of a stable locked phase resulting from the cross-correlation λq between the real and imaginary parts of quantum noise. Based on numerical computations it finds that the presence of cross correlations between the real and imaginary parts of quantum noise slow down the decay of intensity fluctuation, i.e., it causes the increase of intensity fluctuation.

Statistical fluctuations in a saturation laser model with correlated noises

We study the effects of correlations between quantum and pump noises on fluctuations of the laser intensity in a saturation laser model. An approximative Fokker--Planck equation and analytic expressions of the steady-state probability distribution function (SPD) of the laser system are derived. Based on the SPD, the normalized mean, the normalized variance, and the normalized skewness of the steady-state laser intensity are calculated numerically. The results indicate that (i) the correlation strength \lambda of correlated noises always enhances the fluctuation of laser intensity; (ii) the correlation time \tau of correlated noises strengthens the fluctuation of laser intensity for the below-threshold case but \tau weakens it for the above-threshold case.     

Simulation study of the two-time intensity correlation function of a two-mode laser system with both pump and quantum noises

This paper investigates the two-time intensity correlation function of a two-mode ring laser system subjected to both pump and quantum noises by stochastic simulation. It finds that the decay rate of the intensity correlation function of one mode gets faster with decreasing values of relevant parameters, i.e., the coupling constant ξ, the cross-correlation coefficient λ , the difference of the pump parameters Δa and the pump parameter a₁; however, its variations get complex in the other mode when relevant parameters are changed. The investigating results also show that the effects of the mode competition on intensity correlation function are obvious.     

Moments of the intensity of a single-mode laser driven by coloured pump noises with a cross-correlation between the real and imaginary parts of the quantum noise

By means of the unified coloured noise approximation and phase lock, we study in this paper the stationary intensity distribution of the single-mode laser cubic model driven by coloured pump noise with cross-correlation between the real and imaginary parts of the quantum noise. We present a thorough discussion of how the cross-correlation λ_q between the real and imaginary parts of the quantum noise and the self-correlation time τ of the pump noise determine the behaviours of the mean intensity 〈I〉 and variance λ_2 (0) for both below and above the threshold operation, and many new phenomena are discovered. When the laser is operated above the threshold, increasing the cross-correlation intensity λ_q makes the 〈I 〉－τ curves exhibit a "re-entrant phase transition". Whether the laser is above or below the threshold, the whole 〈I 〉－τ curve moves down as λ_q increases; however, when λ_q=1 (perfect cross-correlation), the curve abruptly runs up. A nonzero value of cross-correlation time τ (τ≠0) leads to the entire λ_2(0)－p′ curve being suppressed (here p′ is the pump noise intensity). This indicates the increasing precision of the laser beam due to the existence of the self-correlation time τ. The behaviour of the λ_2 (0)－p′ curve as a function of λ_q is similar to that of the 〈I 〉－τ curve against λ_q: that is, whether the laser is above or below the threshold, the λ_2 (0)－p′ curve moves up as λ_q increases; however, when λ_q=1, the curve suddenly moves down. Through the study in this paper, we can find a way to optimize for output laser intensity.τ     

Time evolution of the intensity correlation function in a single-mode laser driven by both the coloured pump noise with signal modulation and the quantum noise with cross-correlation between the real and imaginary parts

Using the linear approximation, we have studied the time evolution of intensity correlation function C（t） in a single-mode laser driven by both the colored pump noise with signal modulation and the quantum noise with cross-correlation between its real and imaginary parts. In the case of the pump noise self-correlation time, we find that the time evolution of C（t） varies with modulation signal frequency Ω, amplitude B, and net gain ɑ0. (i) As the Ω increases, the time evolution of C（t） experiences a process changing from the monotonous descension to the descension with a flat appearing initially, and finally to the a form of damping oscillation; (ii) As the B increases, it experiences from monotonous descension to the appearance of a maximum; (iii) As the net gain ɑ0 increases, it experiences a process repeatedly changing from the monotonous descension to monotonous ascension, and to the appearance of a maximum, finally to monotonous descension again. However, in the case of, the time evolution of C（t） only exhibits a form of damping oscillation .     

Effects of cross-correlation between the real and imaginary parts of the quantum noise in a two-mode saturation laser system

A two-mode saturation laser model with cross-correlation between the real and imaginary parts of the quantum noise is considered. The laser intensity Langevin equation and corresponding Fokker-Planck equation are derived by the phase-locking method. The effects of the cross-correlation strength λ between the real and imaginary parts of quantum noise and the cavity decay constant K on the steady-state intensity distribution Q(I₁,I₂), the mean light intensity 〈I〉, the normalization autocorrelation λ₁₁(0) and cross correlation λ₁₂(0) are studied by numerical calculation. The results show that as λ increases the Qs(I₁,I₂) show two extrema, and λ almost does not affect the 〈I〉, λ₁₁(0) and λ₁₂(0) when the laser system is operated far above threshold. Nevertheless, when the laser system is operated at and below threshold, λ makes the curves of Qs(I₁,I₂) have the higher peak and drop faster. Furthermore, it enhances the deviation of λ₁₁(0) and λ₁₂(0) and lessens the mean light intensity 〈I〉 when the laser system is operated at and below threshold.     

The statistical fluctuation of a single-mode laser system driven by coloured pump noise with signal modulation and the quantum noise with cross-correlation between its real and imaginary parts

Using the linear approximation method, this paper studies the statistical property of a single-mode laser driven by both coloured pump noise with signal modulation and the quantum noise with cross-correlation between its real and imaginary parts, and calculates the steady-state mean normalized intensity fluctuation and intensity correlation time. It analyses the influences of the modulation signal, the net gain coefficient, the noise and its correlation form on the statistical fluctuation of the laser system respectively. It is found that the coloured pump noise modulated by the signal has a great suppressing action on the statistical fluctuation of the laser system; the pump noise self-correlation time and the specific frequency of modulation signal have the result that the statistical fluctuation tends to zero. Furthermore, the `colour' correlation of pump noise has much influences on the statistical fluctuation of the laser system. Increasing the intensity of pump noise will augment the statistical fluctuation of the laser system, but the intensity of quantum noise and the coefficient of cross-correlation between its real and imaginary parts have less influence on the statistical fluctuation of the laser system. Therefore, from the conclusions of this paper the statistical property can be known and a theoretical basis for steady operation and output of the laser system can be provided.     

Stochastic resonance in a gain--noise model of a single-mode laser driven by pump noise and quantum noise with cross-correlation between real and imaginary parts under direct signal modulation

Stochastic resonance (SR) is studied in a gain--noise model of a single-mode laser driven by a coloured pump noise and a quantum noise with cross-correlation between real and imaginary parts under a direct signal modulation. By using a linear approximation method, we find that the SR appears during the variation of signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) separately with the pump noise self-correlation time \tau , the noise correlation coefficient between the real part and the imaginary part of the quantum noise \lambda_q , the attenuation coefficient \gamma and the deterministic steady-state intensity I_0 . In addition, it is found that the SR can be characterized not only by the dependence of SNR on the noise variables of \tau and \lambda_q, but also by the dependence of SNR on the laser system variables of \gamma and I₀. Thus our investigation extends the characteristic quantity of SR proposed before.

Output power spectrum of a single-mode laser driven by coloured pump and quantum noises with coloured correlation

By using the linear approximation method, the output power spectrum is calculated for a single-mode laser driven by coloured pump and quantum noises with coloured correlation. We have observed that the configuration of the output power spectrum is complicated: that is, it can be of single peak, two peaks or three peaks. The configurations of the power spectrum can be transformed from one into another by changing the cross-correlation time, the cross-correlation coefficient between the two noises, and pump noise intensity.

Influence of pumping laser bandwidth on the quantum fluctuation chracteristic of a non-degenerate optical parametric amplifier

Usually the quantum fluctuation characteristic of a non-degenerate optical parametric amplifier is analysed under the assumption of monochromatic pumping. However, in experiments, a driving beam with finite bandwidth is used to obtain the non-degenerate signal and idler beam amplifications. On account of that, we derive an analytical solution for the non-degenerate optical parametric amplification system with finite bandwidth laser pumping, and evaluate the associated quantum fluctuation. Finally, the application of the V1 criterion to bipartite entanglement is discussed.
