Abstract
We present the novel scheme for the generation of three-photon correlated states of light using an idea of composite nonlinear interactions in a cavity. The intracavity three-photon parametric splitting develops from the cascaded two-photon processes 3 ω→2 ω+ ω and 2 ω→ ω+ ω in χ (2)-materials, leading to the generation of two subharmonics at the frequencies ω and 2 ω. The advantages here, in comparison with the scheme of direct intracavity three-photon down-conversion in a χ (3)-material, are the comparatively low values of the characteristic thresholds of both parametric oscillations and appearing of distinct quantum dynamics of subharmonics. Discussions of dissipation and quantum features of this system are performed on ensemble-averaged quantum trajectories, based on the quantum-jump simulation method, and concern the Wigner functions, von Neumann entropies and photon-number distributions of both subharmonic modes.
