In this work we examine the entanglement of the output signal-idler squeezed vacuum state in the Heisenberg picture as a function of the coupling and internal propagation loss parameters of a microring resonator. Using the log-negativity as a measure of entanglement for a mixed Gaussian state, we examine the competitive effects of the transfer matrix that encodes the classical phenomenological loss, as well as the matrix that that incorporates the coupling and internal propagation loss due to the quantum Langevin noise fields required to preserve unitarity of the composite system,(signal-idler) and environment (noise) structure.

We investigate entangled photon pair generation in a lossy microring resonator using an input-output formalism based on the work of Raymer and McKinstrie (Phys. Rev. A 88, 043819 (2013)) and Alsing, et al. (Phys. Rev. A 95, 053828 (2017)) that incorp orates circulation factors that account for the multiple round trips of the fields within the cavity. We consider the nonlinear processes of spontaneous parametric down conversion and spontaneous four wave mixing, and we compute the generated biphoton signal-idler state from a single bus microring resonator, along with the generation, coincidence-to-accidental, and heralding efficiency rates. We compare these generalized results to those obtained by previous works employing the standard Langevin input-output formalism.
Entanglement verification and measurement is essential for experimental tests of quantum mechanics and also for quantum communication and information science. Standard methods of verifying entanglement in a bipartite mixed state require detection of both particles and involve coincidence measurement. We present a method that enables us to verify and measure entanglement in a two-photon mixed state without detecting one of the photons, i.e., without performing any coincidence measurement or postselection. We consider two identical sources, each of which can generate the same two-photon mixed state but they never emit simultaneously. We show that one can produce a set of single-photon interference patterns, which contain information about entanglement in the two-photon mixed state. We prove that it is possible to retrieve the information about entanglement from the visibility of the interference patterns. Our method reveals a distinct avenue for verifying and measuring entanglement in mixed states.
Entanglement is a fundamental feature of quantum mechanics, considered a key resource in quantum information processing. Measuring entanglement is an essential step in a wide range of applied and foundational quantum experiments. When a two-particle quantum state is not pure, standard methods to measure the entanglement require detection of both particles. We introduce a method in which detection of only one of the particles is required to characterize the entanglement of a two-particle mixed state. Our method is based on the principle of quantum interference. We use two identical sources of a two-photon mixed state and generate a set of single-photon interference patterns. The entanglement of the two-photon quantum state is characterized by the visibility of the interference patterns. Our experiment thus opens up a distinct avenue for verifying and measuring entanglement, and can allow for mixed state entanglement characterization even when one particle in the pair cannot be detected.
In order to implement fault-tolerant quantum computation, entanglement generation with low error probability and high success probability is required. We have proposed the use of squeezed coherent light as a probe to generate entanglement between two atoms by communication, and shown that the error probability is reduced well below the threshold of fault-tolerant quantum computation [Phys. Rev. A. {bf 88}, 022313 (2013)]. Here, we investigate the effect of photon loss mainly due to finite coupling efficiency to the cavity. The error probability with the photon loss is calculated by the beam-splitter model for homodyne measurement on probe light. Optimum condition on the amplitude of probe light to minimize the error probability is examined. It is shown that the phase-squeezed probe light yields lower error probability than coherent-light probe. A fault-tolerant quantum computation algorithm can be implemented under 0.59 dB loss by concatenating five-qubit error correction code.

We develop a general Hamiltonian treatement of spontaneous four-wave mixing in a microring resonator side-coupled to a channel waveguide. The effect of scattering losses in the ring is included, as well as parasitic nonlinear effects including self- and cross-phase modulation. A procedure for computing the output of such a system for arbitrary parameters and pump states is presented. For the limit of weak pumping an expression for the joint spectral intensity of generated photon pairs, as well as the singles-to-coincidences ratio, is derived.
