Abstract

En 中文
State-preserving frequency conversion in the optical domain is a necessary component in many configurations of quan-tum information processing and communication. Thus far, nonlinear crystals are used for this purpose. Here, we report on an approach based on coherent anti-Stokes Raman scat-tering (CARS) in a dense molecular hydrogen gas. This four-wave mixing process sidesteps the limitations imposed by crystal properties, it is intrinsically broadband and does not generate an undesired background. We demonstrate this method by converting photons from 434 nm to 370 nm and show that their polarization is preserved. (c) 2022 Optica Pub-lishing Group
