The degenerate operation is obtained by introducing a birefringent plate inside the cavity resulting in phase locking. After filtering the pump noise, which plays a critical role, continuous-variable EPR correlations between the orthogonally polarized signal and idler beams are demonstrated.Quantum PhysicsExperimental demonstration of frequency-degenerate bright EPR beams with a self-phase-locked optical parametric oscillatortext
