Towards generation of Squeezed States of Light at the Rb D1 line — •Torben Sobottke1,2 and Roman Schnabel1,2 — 1Universität Hamburg, Luruper Chaussee 149, 22761 Hamburg — 2The Hamburg Centre for Ultrafast Imaging, Hamburg, Germany
The unique non-classical properties of squeezed states of light can be widely used, for example in quantum limited metrology, quantum communication, spectroscopy or microscopy. Within the cluster of excellence "Advanced Imaging of Matter", we started a project which aims at building a portable, tunable, continuous wave squeezed light source operating around the Rb D1 line, thus in the wavelength range from 795nm to 805nm. This device will be used to study the interaction of squeezed light with atoms, ultracold atom gases or BECs. In the poster, we will present the current design ideas, and will especially focus on the challenges to counteract radiation damage of the SHG and OPO due to the near-UV pump light.
