We have experimentally demonstrated how two beams of light separated by an octave in frequency can become entangled after their interaction in a second-order nonlinear medium. The entangler consisted of a nonlinear crystal placed within an…

When an X-ray area detector based on a single crystalline material, for instance, a state of the art hybrid pixel detector, is illuminated from a point source by monochromatic radiation, a pattern of lines appears which overlays the…

We study the imaging of a penetrable scatterer, aka target, in a waveguide with randomly perturbed boundary. The target is located between a partially coherent source which transmits the wave, and a detector which measures the spatially…

We investigate the effect of turbulence on quantum ghost imaging. We use entangled photons and demonstrate that for a novel experimental configuration the effect of turbulence can be greatly diminished. By decoupling the entangled photon…

Speckle is a wave interference phenomenon that has been studied in various fields, including optics, hydrodynamics and acoustics. Speckle patterns contain spectral information of the interfering waves, and of the scattering medium that…

Suppose that a plane wave is incident onto an impenetrable grating profile of Dirichlet or Impedance type or a penetrable grating. The grating interface is assumed to be given by a Lipschitz function in two dimensions. We derive stability…

We present an experimental demonstration of a subwavelength diffraction grating performing first-order differentiation of the transverse profile of an incident optical beam with respect to a spatial variable. The experimental results are in…

Diffraction patterns of electrons are believed to resemble those of electromagnetic waves (EMW). I performed a series of experiments invoked to show that the periodicity of peaks in the diffraction diagram of electrons is concerned with the…

Beam splitters are not-free operations with regard to quantum coherence. As a consequence, they can create coherence from both coherent and incoherent states. We investigate the increase in coherence produced by cascades of beam splitters.…

The classic Young's double-slit experiment exhibits first-order interference, producing alternating bright and dark fringes modulated by the diffraction effect of the slits. In contrast, here we demonstrate that its time-reversed…

The detection of beamstrahlung visible light, divided in its polarization components, effectively images the beam-beam collision (BBC). Monitoring and correction of drifts are reviewed. Monitoring of beam jitter is also possible. The…

The Fourier-Transform ghost imaging of both amplitude-only and pure-phase objects was experimentally observed with classical incoherent light at Fresnel distance by a new lensless scheme. The experimental results are in good agreement with…

Spin interferometry of the 4th order for independent polarized as well as unpolarized photons arriving simultaneously at a beam splitter and exhibiting spin correlation while leaving it, is formulated and discussed in the quantum approach.…

Tremendous progress has been realized in quantum optics for engineering and detecting the quantum properties of light. Today, photon pairs are routinely created in entangled states. Entanglement is revealed using single-photon detectors in…

The observation of neutron interference by using a crystal interferometer having a separate analyser opens the way to the construction and operation of interferometers with vast arm separation and length. Setting the design specifications…

Physical adversarial examples for camera-based computer vision have so far been achieved through visible artifacts -- a sticker on a Stop sign, colorful borders around eyeglasses or a 3D printed object with a colorful texture. An implicit…

Diffraction gratings are famous for their ability to exhibit, near a Wood anomaly, an arbitrarily large angular dispersion, e.g., with respect to the incidence angle or wavelength. For a diffraction grating under incidence by a plane wave…

We present a practical experimental realization of transmission x-ray ghost imaging using synchrotron light. Hard x-rays from an undulator were split by a Si 200 crystal in Laue geometry to produce two copies of a speckled incident beam.…

Imaging based on the induced coherence effect makes use of photon pairs to obtain information of an object without detecting the light that probes it. While one photon illuminates the object, only its partner is detected, so no measurement…

The interference of two independent single-photon pulses impinging on a beam splitter is analysed in a generalised time-resolved manner. Different aspects of the phenomenon are elaborated using different representations of the single-photon…
