Bright two-color continuous variable (CV) entangled optical beams at 0.8 and 1.5 μm are generated by utilizing a phase-insensitive optical parametric amplifier with only 1.5 μm signal field injected. Without locking the relative phase between the signal and pump fields, the amplitude quadrature difference squeezing of 3.30 dB and phase quadrature sum squeezing of 3.35 dB are observed, which satisfy the entanglement criterion. The demonstrated scheme here eliminates the necessity of precise phase control between the signal and pump fields and enables robust generation of two-color CV entangled states.
