Author:Zhang, Y; Roux, FS; McLaren, M; Forbes, ADate:Aug 2014Considering the quantum state produced in type I spontaneous parametric down-conversion with collinear, degenerate signal and idler beams, and a Gaussian pump, we show that the azimuthal Schmidt number in the Laguerre-Gaussian (LG) basis ...Read more
Author:Zhang, Y; McLaren, M; Roux, FS; Forbes, ADate:Aug 2014We present a simple way of simulating Spontaneous parametric down-conversion (SPDC) by modulating a classical laser beam with two spatial light modulators (SLM) through a back projection setup. This system has the advantage of having very ...Read more
