Abstract

In the recent years, different methods have been proposed to determine the spectrum of quantum fluctuations at the output of a given optical sytem. Among them, the semi-classical input-output method1,2,3 has been successfully applied to steady-state problems involving intracavity three-wave4,5,6 or four-wave mixing 7 in pure parametric media, taking into account the possible existence of linear losses in the system. After a brief overview of this method (part2), we will show how it can be extended to treat more complicated situations: firstly (part3), the case of a system without a steady-state solution (more precisely, in the self-pulsing regime), and secondly (part4), the case of a non-linear medium having its own dynamics and excess noise sources (more precisely, for atomic systems inserted in an optical cavity).
