摘要
Using Caves's theory on the quantum-noise limit in an amplifier, we consider the quantum limit on noise in a Raman amplifier. We show explicitly that the full quantum equations for the Raman interaction can be transformed into the general form for a quantum amplifier. In addition, we show that in the steady-state limit the Raman amplifier becomes a phase-insensitive amplifier. At this limit we find that the output signal-to-noise ratio is unity when one photon per mode is input. Thus we conclude that the Raman amplifier, in the phase-insensitive limit, will operate at the quantum-noise limit.
