Abstract

We predict highly efficient sum-frequency conversion in quadratic nonlinear dielectric nano-resonators made of AlGaAs, and formulate a general quantum-classical correspondence with spontaneous parametric down-conversion, revealing a photon-pair generation regime with non-classical angular correlations.
