Manipulating the excitation of resonant electric and magnetic multipole moments in structured dielectric media has unlocked many sophisticated electromagnetic functionalities. This article demonstrates the experimental realization of a…
Radiation by elementary sources is a basic problem in wave physics. We show that the time-domain energy flux radiated from electromagnetic and acoustic subwalength sources exhibits remarkable features. In particular, a subtle trade-off…
In this work we study the transverse spatial correlation of the pair of photons generated via the process of spontaneous parametric frequency down-conversion, in periodically poled non-linear crystals illuminated by a pulsed laser beam. It…
We present a quantum-theoretical treatment of biphoton generation in single-resonant type-II parametric down-conversion. The nonlinear medium is continuously pumped and is placed inside a cavity which is resonant for the signal field, but…
Photon triplet sources exhibit non-Gaussian features, a key property for applications in quantum computing and quantum information. However, spectral correlations can limit the performance and detection efficiency of these systems.…
We describe the generation of correlated photon pairs by means of spontaneous parametric down-conversion of an optical pump in the form of a finite energy Airy beam. The optical system function, which contributes to the propagation of the…
We investigate single photon generation from individual self-assembled InGaAs quantum dots coupled to the guided optical mode of a GaAs photonic crystal waveguide. By performing confocal microscopy measurements on single dots positioned…
Cavity-enhanced Spontaneous parametric down-conversion (SPDC) is capable of efficient generation of single photons with suitable spectral properties for interfacing with the atoms. However, beside the remarkable progress of this technique,…
Inherent loss is always to be avoided in generating single photons or biphotons, but interestingly it provides opportunities for manipulating the photon wave packet. In this paper we show how inherent loss in parametric down-conversion can…
This paper is concerned with identification of a spatial source function from final time observation in a bi-parabolic equation, where the full source function is assumed to be a product of time dependent and a space dependent function. Due…
Gamma ray bursts (GRB) occur at random points in the sky at cosmological distances. The spectra evolve through X-ray, optical region to possibly radio frequency. Though there are some models, the origin and time evolution of GRB are not…
Spectrally-tunable quantum-light sources are key elements for the realization of long-distance quantum communication. A deterministically fabricated single-photon source with a photon-extraction efficiency of {\eta}=(20 +- 2) % and a tuning…
Quantum imaging with spatially entangled photons offers advantages such as enhanced spatial resolution, robustness against noise, and counter-intuitive phenomena, while a biphoton spatial aberration generally degrades its performance.…
Sources of high-energy photons have important applications in almost all areas of research. However, the photon flux and intensity of existing sources is strongly limited for photon energies above a few hundred keV. Here we show that a…
Nonclassical light sources are highly sought after as they are an integral part of quantum communication and quantum computation devices. Typical sources rely on bulk crystals that are not compact and have limited bandwidth due to…
This paper offers an extensive exploration of nonradiating sources for the two- and three-dimensional biharmonic wave equations. Various equivalent characterizations are derived to reveal the nature of a nonradiating source. Additionally,…
High-dimensional entanglement in the form of transverse spatial correlation between a pair of photons generated via spontaneous parametric downconversion is not only a valuable resource in many academic and real-life applications but also…
We explore the observational appearance of the photosphere of an ultrarelativistic flow with internal dissipation of energy as predicted by the magnetic reconnection model. Previous study of the radiative transfer in the photospheric region…
Grating-coupler-induced collective intersubband transitions in a quasi-two-dimensional electron system are investigated both experimentally and theoretically. Far-infrared transmission experiments are performed on samples containing a…
We study the formation and evolution of the spectral imprint of resonantly scattered Lyman $\alpha$ photons in the context of GRB's continuum optical afterglow. Based on an analytic model and a complete treatment of all the scatterings…
