Abstract
We analyze the quantum properties of the signal near field emitted by a degenerate parametric oscillator below threshold, including diffraction and its effects on the threshold for signal generation. The field is probed by a local oscillator field of arbitrary spatial configuration. The results are expressed in terms of an appropriate spectrum which describes how the level of squeezing varies with the angle from the direction of propagation. The results hold for cavities both with plane and with spherical mirrors.
