Abstract

The bright Einsten-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) beams with the quantum correlations between the quadrature-phase amplitudes of the spatially separated signal and idler beams have been experimentally generated from a cw nondegenerate optical parametric amplifier injected by seed waves with degenerate frequency but orthogonal polarization. The correlation degree of 0.853±0.004 between the quadrature-phase amplitudes of the output entangled beams is directly inferred from the measured quadrature-phase squeezing of the output vacuum squeezed-state light field formed from superposition of the original signal and idler modes. Our theoretical calculation and experimental measurements provide a reliable method to confirm the quadrature phase-squeezing and EPR correlation of bright light field.
