Quantum spectra of Raman photon pairs from a mesoscopic particle

Quantum Langevin formalism with noise operators is used to provide quantum descriptions of photon pairs (the Stokes and anti-Stokes fields) emitted by a mesoscopic spherical particle composed of quantum particles in a double Raman configuration. The spectra of the fields obtained are sensitive to th...

description Quantum Langevin formalism with noise operators is used to provide quantum descriptions of photon pairs (the Stokes and anti-Stokes fields) emitted by a mesoscopic spherical particle composed of quantum particles in a double Raman configuration. The spectra of the fields obtained are sensitive to the dimension of the microsphere and can be controlled by pump and control laser fields. Spectral peaks due to quantum coherence are Stark shifted by the laser fields experiencing autofocusing inside the spherical particle, causing broadening of peaks as the size of the microsphere increases. The antinormal-order spectrum is found to be identical to the normal-order spectrum. The anti-Stokes spectrum is identical to the Stokes spectrum when the linear dispersion is neglected. Frequency-dependent dielectric functions of the Stokes and anti-Stokes spectra corresponding to the linear dispersions of the particle yield narrow morphology-dependent resonance gain peaks at certain frequencies of the Stokes and anti-Stokes spectra that depend not only on the particle size but also on the angle of observation.
