Engineering of Chirped Apodized Sources for Quantum Spectroscopy
Abstract
Quantum sources of light are of paramount importance for the development of photonic quantum technologies. The growing demand for bright, efficient, and spectrally engineered photonic sources for applications in quantum sensing, spectroscopy, and imaging has motivated the development of tailored nonlinear crystals. Here, we report on the development and characterization of chirped, apodized KTP crystals specifically engineered for quantum spectroscopy. Our source exhibits an unprecedented bandwidth in a highly non-degenerate configuration, demonstrating its potential to support quantum spectroscopy protocols over broad spectral ranges while enabling significantly shorter measurement times.
