We display the results of the numerical simulations of a set of Langevin equations, which describe the dynamics of a degenerate optical parametric oscillator in the Wigner representation. The scan of the threshold region shows the gradual transformation of a quantum image into a classical roll pattern. An experiment on parametric down-conversion in lithium triborate shows strikingly similar results in both the near and the far eld, displaying qualitatively the classical features of quantum images.

Abstract
We display the results of the numerical simulations of a set of Langevin equations, which describe the dynamics of a degenerate optical parametric oscillator in the Wigner representation. The scan of the threshold region shows the gradual transformation of a quantum image into a classical roll pattern. An experiment on parametric down-conversion in lithium triborate shows strikingly similar results in both the near and the far eld, displaying qualitatively the classical features of quantum images.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
