By substituting Equations 3.9, 3.10, 3.13 and 3.14 into 3.8, we obtain for the Hamiltonian:<br />

.The parameters for the envelope of signal and idler frequencies have been merged<br />

into As,i.<br />

We now assume that our initial state |ψ(t = 0)〉 is the vacuum state |0〉. The<br />

corresponding two-photon-state |ψs,i〉 evaluates to:<br />

The functions As,i and Ap are slowly varying with frequency, we hence treat them<br />

as constant and combine them with the susceptibility into the constant A ′ . Furthermore,<br />

the leading vacuum term is of no particular interest to us and will therefore<br />

be omitted in future calculations. The hermitian conjugate part covers the reverse<br />

process. Since only few photons are downconverted the reversal process is neglected.<br />

This leads to the following state:<br />

In this formula ∆k represents the momentum mismatch already introduced in the<br />

SHG treatment (Equation 3.3).<br />

∆k = kp(ωp) − ks(ωs) − ki(ωi) (3.18)<br />

We extent the integration time to ±∞, since we are interested in the steady state.<br />

With this simplification, the time integration is easily solveable and yields:<br />

� ∞<br />

dt ′ e −i∆ωt′<br />

= 2πδ(∆ω) (3.19)<br />

−∞<br />

The result is the well known energy conservation condition, with ∆ω = ωp − ωs − ωi,<br />

that replaces the frequency mismatch. We employ the energy conservation condition<br />

to get rid of the ω integration.<br />
