Optical satellite links open up new prospects for realizing quantum physical experiments over unprecedented length scales. We analyze and affirm the feasibility of detecting quantum squeezing in an optical mode with homodyne detection of…
While investigating quantum correlations in atomic systems, we note that single measurements contain information about these correlations. Using a simple model of measurement -- analogous to the one used in quantum optics -- we show how to…
It is proposed in this paper that without a measurement, the wave function of a system periodically transits to a bound energy eigenfunction or the complementary wave function that is orthogonal to all the bound energy eigenfunctions.…
The determination of the quantum properties of a single mode radiation field by heterodyne or double homodyne detection is studied. The realistic case of not fully efficient photodetectors is considered. It is shown that a large amount of…
We present an experimental demonstration of the power of real-time feedback in quantum metrology, confirming a theoretical prediction by Wiseman regarding the superior performance of an adaptive homodyne technique for single-shot…
The amplitude and phase of a material's nonlinear optical response provide insight into the underlying electronic dynamics that determine its optical properties. Phase-sensitive nonlinear spectroscopy techniques are widely implemented to…
Focusing on the transient regime, we explore atomic two-photon spectroscopy with self-aligned homodyne interferometry in a $\Lambda$-system with large optical depth. The two light sources at the origin of the interference are the…
In this letter, we have considered an electron in a coupled quantum dot system interacting with a detector represented by a point contact. We present a dynamical model for wave function collapse in the strong coupling to the detector limit.…
Accurate calibration of coherent optical receivers is essential for reliable performance assessment in coherent communications, precision and quantum sensing, and continuous-variable quantum key distribution (CV-QKD), where the effective…
The signal registered by a plane photodetector placed behind an optically inhomogeneous object irradiated by two coherent Gaussian beams intersecting inside the object at small angle to each other is calculated in the single-scattering…
The measurement problem remains unaddressed in modern physics, with an array of proposed solutions but as of yet no agreed resolution. In this paper, we examine measurement using the Q-based, objective-field model for quantum mechanics.…
The balanced homodyne detection as a readout scheme of gravitational-wave detectors is carefully examined from the quantum field theoretical point of view. The readout scheme in gravitational-wave detectors specifies the directly measured…
Performing homodyne detection at one port of squeezed-state light interferometer and then binarzing measurement data are important to achieve super-resolving and super-sensitive phase measurements. Here we propose a new data-processing…
We propose an innovative strategy to discriminate between two coherent states affected by either uniform or gaussian phase noise. The strategy is based on a homodyne-like detection scheme with photon-number-resolving detectors in the regime…
We give a description of balanced homodyne detection (BHD) using a conventional laser as a local oscillator (LO), where the laser field outside the cavity is a mixed state whose phase is completely unknown. Our description is based on the…
Driven by single photon detection requirements especially for quantum information sciences, the theory of arrays of off-on detectors has been well developed and applied. However for a comprehensive characterization of nonclassicality one…
A self-homodyne detection scheme is proposed to perform two-mode tomography on a twin-beam state at the output of a nondegenerate optical parametric amplifier. This scheme has been devised to improve the matching between the local…
Balanced homodyne detector (BHD) that can measure the field quadratures of coherent states has been widely used in a range of quantum information technologies. Generally, the BHD tends to suffer from narrow bands and an expanding bandwidth…
Measuring the spectral phase of a pulse is key for performing wavelength resolved ultrafast measurements in the few femtosecond regime. However, accurate measurements in real experimental conditions can be challenging. We show that the…
It is well known that the Husimi Q-function of the signal field can actually be measured by the eight-port homodyne detection technique, provided that the reference beam (used for homodyne detection) is a very strong coherent field so that…
