In fiber-optic distributed sensing, vibration signals are mostly assumed to follow Gaussian distribution for the simplicity of signal processing. However, in real applications, vibration signals often behave as non-Gaussian processes, which…
We investigate sideband spectroscopy of a trapped ion using a probe laser phase modulated at the trap drive frequency. The enhanced sensitivity of our technique over traditional sideband spectroscopy allows us to detect stray fields of…
We propose a novel pulsed optical field method that alternately switches the pump beam in conventional saturation absorption to time-division multiplex the same probe beam into both probe and reference beams, followed by digital…
Path-length diversity methods may be used for adaptive optics (AO) systems to retrieve phase and amplitude information by measuring intensity across multiple planes. Observations that rely on free-space propagation, such as the nonlinear…
Linear off-resonant X-ray Raman techniques are capable of detecting the ultrafast electronic coherences generated when a photoexcited wave packet passes through a conical intersection. A hybrid femtosecond or attosecond probe pulse is…
Linear systems such as room acoustics and string oscillations may be modeled as the sum of mode responses, each characterized by a frequency, damping and amplitude. Here, we consider finding the mode parameters from impulse response…
The dynamic range of an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) is critical during sampling of analog signals. A modulo operation prior to sampling can be used to enhance the effective dynamic range of the ADC. Further, sampling rate of ADC too…
We design, test, and analyze fiber-optic voltage sensors based on optical reflection from a piezoelectric transducer. By controlling the physical dimensions of the device, we can tune the frequency of its natural resonance to achieve a…
Optical frequency combs, with precise control of repetition rate and carrier-envelope-offset frequency, have revolutionized many fields, such as fine optical spectroscopy, optical frequency standards, ultra-fast science research,…
Recurrence behavior of wave packets in coupled higher dimensional systems and periodically driven systems is analyzed, which takes place in the realm of higher coupling/modulation strength. We analyze the wave packet dynamics close to…
Balancing high sensitivity with a broad dynamic range is a fundamental challenge in measurement science, as improving one often compromises the other. While traditional quantum metrology has prioritized enhancing local sensitivity, a large…
Double resonance optically pumped magnetometry can be used to measure static magnetic fields with high sensitivity by detecting a resonant atomic spin response to a small oscillating field perturbation. Determination of the resonant…
Frequency-filtered photon correlations have been proven to be extremely useful in grasping how the detection process alters photon statistics. Harnessing the spectral correlations also permits refinement of the emission and unraveling of…
We determine the frequencies of solar oscillations covering a wide range of degree (100< l <4000) and frequency (1.5 <\nu<10 mHz) using the ring diagram technique applied to power spectra obtained from MDI (Michelson Doppler Imager) data.…
We report on methods to monitor the transmission path in optical networks using a correlation-based OTDR technique with direct and coherent detection. A high probing symbol rate can provide picosecond-accuracy of the fiber propagation…
Tuneable ultrafast laser pulses are a powerful tool for measuring difficult-to-access degrees of freedom in materials science. In general these experiments require the ability to address resonances and excitations both above and below the…
The spatial resolution of direct-modulation Brillouin optical correlation-domain reflectometry is studied with respect to modulation amplitude and frequency. Results suggest that optimal resolution improvement is achieved by increasing…
Absorption of ultrashort laser pulses in a metallic grating deposited on a transparent sample launches coherent compression/dilatation acoustic pulses in directions of different orders of acoustic diffraction. Their propagation is detected…
We demonstrate pump-probe techniques, namely the Doppler spectrometry and the reflectometry in detail, which directly capture the time-resolved ultrafast evolution of high intensity femtosecond laser-driven hot, dense plasma. These…
