Enhanced photon-pair generation under coherent control

Abstract

The generation of the narrowband strong-correlated biphotons via spontaneous four-wave mixing can be effectively controlled and enhanced by an additional driving field which drives a transition with its upper level being a Rydberg state. We study the properties of the noise of the generated biphotons and show that in the region of weak pumping and low atomic density, a high degree of the photon correlation is maintained with the photon-pair generation rate siginificantly enhanced.
