Abstract
We generalise the scheme of conditional preparation of
χ(2) macroscopic entangled states [S.A. Podoshvedov, JETP 129,
(2006)]. The studied system consists of the system of coupled down converters
with type-I phase matching pumped simultaneously by powerful optical fields
in coherent states, one auxiliary photon in superposition state of two input
modes and projective measurement system. The projective measurement system
involves two Hadamard gates introduced to generated output modes followed by
photodetectors. Identification of macroscopic entangled states is produced by
registration of one photon. No photon number resolving detection is requested
for the studied scheme.
