Time-of-flight measurements are key to study distributed mode coupling and differential mode group delay (DMDG) in multimode fibers (MMFs). However, current approaches using regular photodetectors with limited sensitivity preclude the…
The interaction of multiple fluids through a heterogeneous pore space leads to complex pore-scale flow dynamics, such as intermittent pathway flow. The non-local nature of these dynamics, and the size of the 4D datasets acquired to capture…
Beam alignment enables efficient, stable transmission and control of optical energy and information, which critically depend on precise monitoring and regulation of the three-dimensional (3D) relative positioning between fibers. This study…
In the past decade superconducting nanowire single photon detectors (SNSPDs) have gradually become an indispensable part of any demanding quantum optics experiment. Until now, most SNSPDs are coupled to single-mode fibers. SNSPDs coupled to…
Transmission matrix measurements of multimode fibers are now routinely performed in numerous labs, enabling control of the electric field at the distal end of the fiber and paving the way for the potential application to ultrathin medical…
Single-photon avalanche diodes (SPADs) are a rapidly developing image sensing technology with extreme low-light sensitivity and picosecond timing resolution. These unique capabilities have enabled SPADs to be used in applications like…
A scanning white light interferometer is developed to measure the distributed polarization coupling (DPC) in high birefringence polarization maintaining fibers (PMFs). Traditionally, this technique requests only one polarization mode to be…
High-resolution array detectors are widely used in single-particle tracking, but their performance is limited by excess noise from background light and dark current. As pixel resolution increases, the diminished signal per pixel exacerbates…
Long-range speckle correlations play an essential role in wave transport through disordered media, but have rarely been studied in other complex systems. Here we discover spatio-temporal intensity correlations for an optical pulse…
Dynamic mode decomposition (DMD) provides a principled approach to extract physically interpretable spatial modes from time-resolved flow field data, along with a linear model for how the amplitudes of these modes evolve in time. Recently,…
Single-mode optical fibres exhibit a small but non-negligible birefringence that induces random polarisation rotations during light propagation. In classical interferometry these rotations give rise to polarisation-induced fading of the…
Spatial interferometry, based on the measurement of total absorbed power, can be used to determine the state of coherence of the electromagnetic field to which any energy-absorbing structure is sensitive. The measured coherence tensor can…
Transport-dominated phenomena provide a challenge for common mode-based model reduction approaches. We present a model reduction method, which is suited for these kind of systems. It extends the proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) by…
The propagation of coherent light in multimode optical fibers results in a speckled output that is both complex and sensitive to environmental effects. These properties can be a powerful tool for sensing, as small perturbations lead to…
We investigate the collective plasmonic modes of metal nano-particles in periodic two-dimensional (2D) arrays within a point-dipole description. As an open system, the full-dynamic dispersion relations of the 2D arrays are obtained through…
This paper examines the polarization-dependent output of various types of 3-mode photonic lanterns fabricated using double-clad fibers. We explore the sensitivity of the modal response across several types of photonic lanterns, from the…
In this work, we unveil the unique complex dynamics of multimode soliton interactions in graded-index optical fibers through simulations and experiments. By generating two multimode solitons from the fission of an input femtosecond pulse,…
When an optical pulse is focused into a multimode waveguide or fiber, the energy is divided among the available guided modes. Consequently, the initially localized intensity spreads transversely, the spatial profile undergoes rapid…
Atmospheric turbulence severely limits the coupling of received optical wavefronts into single-mode fibers in satellite-to-ground free-space optical links. Spatial demultiplexing receivers address this challenge by distributing the incoming…
In this work we investigate the probabilities of detecting single- and multi-photon coherent states on InGaAs/InP sine-gated and free-run single-photon avalanche diodes. As a result, we conclude that multi-photon state detection cannot be…
