Squeeze Laser


Our Squeeze Laser (SL) is a compact device to be placed onto your optical table (footprint 40 cm x 60 cm). It generates squeezed vacuum states in the continuous wave regime at 1550 nm or 1064 nm. The systems achieve squeezing levels of up to 10dB in the MHz frequency regime. The squeezing regime can be extended to the kHz range with a dedicated locking scheme. The output is a free-space TEM00 spatial mode. 

A conventional laser at half wavelength drives the Squeeze Laser and is integrated by Noisy Labs. If a suitable laser is already available in the customer's laboratory, it can also be used to integrate with the Squeeze Laser.
