Squeezed light generation by four-wave mixing in semiconductors

We have generated pulsed quadrature squeezed light by self-phase modulation (SPM) in ZnS and cross-phase modulation (XPM) in cubic ZnSe at photon energies slightly less than half the band gap in both materials. 40% squeezing at 780nm was obtained in the SPM experiment, while the XPM geometry produce...
