Using photonic devices, we developed a new approach to traditional spectroscopy where the spectral cross-correlation with a template spectrum can be done entirely on-device. By creating photonic devices with a carefully designed, modulated…

In this work we investigate quantum-enhanced target detection in the presence of large background noise using multidimensional quantum correlations between photon pairs generated through spontaneous parametric down-conversion. Until now…

Foreground contamination is the fundamental hindrance to the cosmic microwave background (CMB) signals and its separation from it represents a fundamental question in Cosmology. One of the most popular algorithm used to disentangle…
