TLDR
The direct measurement of 15 dB squeezed vacuum states of light and their application to calibrate the quantum efficiency of photoelectric detection and a customized InGaAs positive intrinsic negative photodiode optimized for high external quantum efficiency are reported on.
Abstract
Researchers have created quantum states of light whose noise level has been ``squeezed'' to a record low.

Enhancing atom-field interaction in the reduced multiphoton Tavis-Cummings model

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a scheme to enhance the light-matter coupling in a cavity QED system where two $\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Lambda}}$ atoms are weakly coupled to a single-mode cavity via multiphoton interaction.

Time-domain analysis on the pulsed squeezed vacuum detected with picosecond pulses

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigate the effect of the frequency chirp of local oscillator (LO) pulses and show that there exists an upper bound of the CHR parameter for a given squeezing level, and point out the importance of temporal broadening in nonlinear optical crystals for squeezing.

Long-distance continuous-variable quantum key distribution using separable Gaussian states

TL;DR: In this paper, a scheme for implementing long-distance continuous-variable quantum key distribution (CVQKD) using separable Gaussian states is presented. But the scheme is restricted to metropolitan areas, given that it is affected by the channel excess noise and losses.

Compact squeezed-light source at 1550 nm

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented a portable and fully automatic source based on parametric down-conversion set up on a breadboard of 1.35 m x 1.13 m.

Observation of squeezed light with 10-dB quantum-noise reduction.

TL;DR: It is shown experimentally that strong squeezing of light's quantum noise is possible and reached a benchmark squeezing factor of 10 in power (10 dB).
