Quantum optical properties of higher harmonics generated in semiconductors — •Philip Heinzel1 and René Sondenheimer1,2 — 1Friedrich-Schiller-University — 2Fraunhofer Institute for Applied Optics and Precision Engineering
The exploration of resource state generation for quantum applications has gained increased attention in recent years. Higher harmonics, generated through non-classical effects, stand out as promising candidates for their potential quantum attributes. To delve deeper into this phenomenon, our study focuses on the generation of non-classical light via laser-driven semiconductor intraband excitations, as investigated in [1]. Building upon the parametrical approximation method [2], we adopt the approach outlined in [1] to characterize the generated states. Our objective is to extend the linearized Hamiltonian approximation up to the quadratic order, introducing potential squeezing effects and rotations. Furthermore, we aim to investigate the resulting states, exploring their photon number statistics and quantum effects such as entanglement between different harmonic modes. This examination will provide a more nuanced understanding of the quantum properties inherent in states generated through laser-driven semiconductor intraband excitations.
