FDS with CCFC lock

[Aritomi, Yuhang]

We replaced a flipping mirror for CCFC with flipping 50:50 BS. We originally had 36% loss and we have 50% additional loss from BS. The total loss will be 68%.

We measured FDS with CCFC lock (attached picture). We also tried to measured anti squeezing, but we cannot have anti squeezing larger than ~11dB so it is not shown in this plot. It seems the nonlinear gain is not optimized.

For HOM angle -1,-14,-28 deg, detuning is around 60Hz and more or less stable, but for HOM angle -38 deg, detuning is 44Hz. I'm sure that green alignment is fine for HOM angle -1,-14,-28 deg, but not sure for HOM angle -38 deg. 

We will measure FDS again and check green alignment at the same time.

In this measurement, we assumed that green power is 56mW and generated squeezing is 21 dB, but nonlinear gain was not optimized in this measurement and actual nonlinear gain (or generated squeezing) should be lower. I assume that generated squeezing is 16dB in this measurement and fitted the FDS measurement again (attached picture). In this case, homodyne angle changes from 0 deg to 90 deg and detuning is between 89-98 Hz. The detuning fluctuation might be better with CCFC.
