The OPO is being employed nowadays as a source of squeezed light tuned to atomic transitions, in order to study how the atoms interact with squeezed light.<ref>{{cite journal|author1=T.

It ishas also recently been demonstrated that a degenerate OPO can be used as an all-optical quantum [[Hardware random number generator|random number generator]] that does not require post processing.<ref>{{cite journal|last=Marandi|first=A.|author2=N.
