Abstract
We investigate semiclassical dynamics and quantum properties of light beams generated in time-modulated nondegenerate optical parametric oscillator (NOPO). Having in view production of continuous-variable (CV) entangled states of light beams we propose two experimentally feasible schemes of NOPO: (i) driven by continuously modulated pump field; (ii) under action of a periodic sequence of identical laser pulses. It is shown that the time modulation of pump field amplitude essentially improves the degree of CV entanglement in NOPO. On the whole the level of integral two-mode squeezing, which characterizes the degree of CV entanglement, goes below the standard limit established in an ordinary NOPO with monochromatic pumping. We develop semiclassical and quantum theories of these devices for both below- and above-threshold regimes of generation. Properties of CV entanglement for various operational regimes of the devices are discussed in the time domain in application to time-resolved quantum information technologies. Our analytical results are in well agreement with the results of numerical simulation and support a concept of CV entangled states of time-modulated light beams.
