The interaction of two orthogonally polarized beams and a four-level GaAs quantum well (QW) waveguide is investigated. It is shown that, by applying a static magnetic field normal to the propagation direction of the driving beams, the…
Light transport in a highly multimode fiber exhibits complex behavior in space, time, frequency and polarization, especially in the presence of mode coupling. The newly developed techniques of spatial wavefront shaping turn out to be highly…
We describe a simple magneto-optical experiment and introduce a magneto-optical Kramers-Kronig analysis (MOKKA) that together allow extracting the complex dielectric function for left- and right-handed circular polarizations in a broad…
A fundamental challenge in physics is controlling the propagation of waves in disordered media despite strong scattering from inhomogeneities. Spatial light modulators enable one to synthesize (shape) the incident wavefront, optimizing the…
Optics related to non-Euclidean geometry has been attracting growing interest for emerged novel phenomena and the analog for general relativity, while most studies are limited to the free space on rotationally-symmetric surfaces. In this…
In this article, we study the optical response of a duplicated two-level atomic medium subjected to a stationary control field and a weak co-propagating probe field, orthogonally polarized to each other. We show that both the reflected and…
The role of entanglement in determining the non-classicality of a given interaction has gained significant traction over the last few years. In particular, as the basis for new experimental proposals to test the quantum nature of the…
We investigate coherence in one- and two-photon optical systems, both theoretically and experimentally. In the first case, we develop the density operator representing a single photon state subjected to a non-dissipative coupling between…
We study magneto-optical coupling in a ferrimagnetic sphere resonator made of Yttrium iron garnet. We find that the resonator can be operated in the telecom band as a polarization-selective optical modulator. Intermodulation gain can be…
We have developed a technique for precise measurement of small magnetic fields using nonlinear magneto-optic rotation (NMOR). The technique relies on the resonant laser beam being chopped. During the on time, the atoms are optically pumped…
We present a sufficient condition for approximate controllability of the bilinear discrete-spectrum Schr\"odinger equation exploiting the use of several controls. The controllability result extends to simultaneous controllability,…
It is known that a spatially partially coherent light field produces better imaging contrast compared to a spatially coherent field and that the contrast increases as the spatial coherence length of the field becomes smaller. The transverse…
At high densities fluids of strongly dipolar spherical particles exhibit spontaneous long-ranged orientational order. Typically, due to demagnetization effects induced by the long range of the dipolar interactions, the magnetization…
The coupling between spin and charge degrees of freedom in a crystal imparts strong optical signatures on scattered electromagnetic waves. This has led to magneto-optical effects with a host of applications, from the sensitive detection of…
We demonstrate compact and accessible squeezed-light magnetometry using four-wave mixing in a single hot rubidium vapor cell. The strong intrinsic coherence of the four wave mixing process results in nonlinear magneto-optical rotation…
We demonstrate experimentally a method of varying the degree of directionality in laser-induced molecular rotation. To control the ratio between the number of clockwise and counter-clockwise rotating molecules (with respect to a fixed…
Nonlinear magneto-optical rotation is a sensitive technique for measuring magnetic fields. Here, the shot-noise-limited magnetometric sensitivity is analyzed for the case of optically-thick media and high light power, which has been the…
Plasmonic metamaterials provide a flexible platform for light manipulation and polarisation management, thanks to their engineered optical properties with exotic dispersion regimes. Here, we exploit the enhanced spin-orbit coupling induced…
Polarization is very sensitive to the configuration of the magnetic field in the radiation region. In addition to polarization curve and polarization spectrum, studies of polarization angle (PA) rotation spectrum is also crucial. In this…
The asymmetric magnetization reversal in exchange biased Fe/MnF$_{2}$ involves coherent (Stoner-Wohlfarth) magnetization rotation into an intermediate, stable state perpendicular to the applied field. We provide here experimentally tested…
