Absorption imaging is a commonly adopted method to acquire, with high temporal resolution, spatial information on a partially transparent object. It relies on the interference between a probe beam and the coherent response of the object. In…

We experimentally demonstrate the coherent control, i.e., phase-dependent enhancement and suppression, of the optical absorption in an array of metallic nanoantennas covered by a thin lu- minescent layer. The coherent control is achieved by…

The entrainment (or locking) phenomenon, by which an oscillator adapts its natural rhythm to an external periodic signal, is well-known in physics, chemistry, biology, etc.; however, controlling an stochastic nonlinear system with a…
