We image with cameras entangled photon light transmitted through a random medium. Near-field and far-field spatial quantum correlations show that entangled photon pairs (bi-photons) generated by spontaneous optical parametric…
We show that it is possible to estimate the shape of an object by measuring only the fluctuations of a probing field, allowing us to expose the object to a minimal light intensity. This scheme, based on noise measurements through homodyne…

We present a technique based on multi-photon detection which leads to a strong focussing of photons scattered by independent single photon emitters. For N single photon sources it is shown that if m - 1 photons are detected in a particular…

The inverse acoustic scattering of point objects using multi-frequency sparse measurements are studied. The objects may be a sum of point sources or point like scatterers. We show that the locations and scattering strengths of the point…

Multiple scattering of waves in disordered media is a nightmare whether it be for detection or imaging purposes. The best approach so far to get rid of multiple scattering is optical coherence tomography. It basically combines confocal…
This paper introduces the use of pseudo-filters that optimize the detection/extraction of sources on a background. We assume as a first approach that such sources are described by a spherical (central) profile and that the background is…
