We study non-Gaussian states generated by two-photon subtraction from a cw squeezed light source. In a cw scheme one can subtract two photons from the source with a designated time separation and can genarate temporally multiplexed superposition states of continuous variables. We numerically study the properties of these states in the light of bosonic interference in the time domain. In an appropriate temporal mode amplified kittens are produced in a region where the time separation is comparable with the correlation time of squeezed packets.

Field-orthogonal temporal mode analysis of optical fields is recently developed for a new framework of quantum information science. But so far, the exact profiles of the temporal modes are not known, which makes it difficult to achieve mode selection and de-multiplexing. Here, we report a novel method that measures directly the exact form of the temporal modes. This in turn enables us to make mode-orthogonal homodyne detection with mode-matched local oscillators. We apply the method to a pulse-pumped, specially engineered fiber parametric amplifier and demonstrate temporally multiplexed multi-dimensional quantum entanglement of continuous variables in telecom wavelength. The temporal mode characterization technique can be generalized to other pulse-excited systems to find their eigen modes for multiplexing in temporal domain.
We study the storage and retrieval of images in a hot atomic vapor using the gradient echo memory protocol. We demonstrate that this technique allows for the storage of multiple spatial modes. We study both spatial and temporal multiplexing by storin g a sequence of two different images in the atomic vapor. The effect of atomic diffusion on the spatial resolution is discussed and characterized experimentally. For short storage time a normalized cross-correlation between a retrieved image and its input of 88 % is reported.
We introduce a quantum teleportation scheme that can transfer a macroscopic spin coherent state between two locations. In the scheme a large number of copies of a qubit, such as realized in a coherent two-component Bose-Einstein condensate, is telepo rted onto a distant macroscopic spin coherent state using only elementary operations and measurements. We analyze the error of the protocol with the number of particles N in the spin coherent state under decoherence and find that it scales favorably with N.
Scalable photonic quantum technologies require highly efficient sources of single photons on demand. Although much progress has been done in the field within the last decade, the requirements impose stringent conditions on the efficiency of such devi ces. One of the most promising approaches is to multiplex a single or several heralded photon sources into temporal modes. In this work we analyze a specific proposal to synchronize photons from a continuous source with an external reference clock using imperfect optical switches, which necessarily degrade the ideal behavior of the devised arrangement. The performance of the source as a sub-poissonian light emitter is studied taking into account losses in the multiplexing arrangement, detector efficiency and dark counts. We estimate a fivefold increase in the single photon probability achieved for 0.5 dB loss switches.
Large multipartite quantum systems tend to rapidly reach extraordinary levels of complexity as their number of constituents and entanglement links grow. Here we use complex network theory to study a class of continuous variables quantum states that p resent both multipartite entanglement and non-Gaussian statistics. In particular, the states are built from an initial imprinted cluster state created via Gaussian entangling operations according to a complex network structure. To go beyond states that can be easily simulated via classical computers we engender non-Gaussian statistics via multiple photon subtraction operations. We then use typical networks measures, the degree and clustering, to characterize the emergent complex network of photon-number correlations after photon subtractions. We show that, in contrast to regular clusters, in the case of imprinted complex network structures the emergent correlations are strongly affected by photon subtraction. On the one hand, we unveil that photon subtraction universally increases the average photon-number correlations, regardless of the imprinted network structure. On the other hand, we show that the shape of the distributions in the emergent networks after subtraction is greatly influenced by the structure of the imprinted network, as witnessed by their higher-moments. Thus for the field of network theory, we introduce a new class of networks to study. At the same time for the field of continuous variable quantum states, this work presents a new set of practical tools to benchmark systems of increasing complexity.
