Abstract

We report implementation and modelling of an efficient photon-triplets generation experiment based on a difference-frequency-mixing of two picosecond beams at 532 nm and 1491 nm in a type II phase-matched KTP crystal. The photon-triplets flux was measured as a function of the energy of the two incident beams using a coincidence protocol. A maximal flux of 11.6 photon-triplets per second was achieved. These experimental data were satisfactorily described by a semiclassical model based on the quantum fluctuations of vacuum and the classical equations of nonlinear optics.
