抄録
We investigate the nonlinear interaction between two photons in a single-input pulse at an atomic two-level nonlinearity. A one-dimensional model for the propagation of light to and from the atom is used to describe the precise spatiotemporal coherence of the two-photon state. It is shown that the interaction generates spatiotemporal entanglement in the output state similar to the entanglement observed in parametric down-conversion. A method of generating photon pairs from coherent pump light using this quantum-mechanical four-wave mixing process is proposed.
