1211.7127 (Quentin Glorieux et al.)

Generation of pulsed bipartite entanglement using four-wave mixing    [PDF]

Quentin Glorieux, Jeremy B. Clark, Neil V. Corzo, Paul D. Lett
Using four-wave mixing in a hot atomic vapor, we generate a pair of entangled twin beams in the microsecond pulsed regime near the D1 line of $^{85}$Rb, making it compatible with commonly used quantum memory techniques. The beams are generated in the bright and vacuum-squeezed regimes, requiring two separate methods of analysis, without and with local oscillators, respectively. We report a noise reduction of up to $3.8\pm 0.2$ dB below the standard quantum limit in the pulsed regime and a level of entanglement that violates an Einstein--Podolsky--Rosen inequality.
