We study theoretically the quenching of a charge-density-wave phase in a model system of a quasi-two dimensional material, which includes both electron-hole and electron-phonon interactions leading, respectively to excitonic and…
When standard light sources are employed, the precision of the phase determination is limited by the shot noise. Quantum entanglement provides means to exceed this limit with the celebrated example of N00N states that saturate the ultimate…
We present a new technique using a frequency comb laser and optical cavities for performing ultrafast transient absorption spectroscopy with improved sensitivity. Resonantly enhancing the probe pulses, we demonstrate a sensitivity of…
The success of non-linear optics relies largely on pulse-to-pulse consistency. In contrast, covariance based techniques used in photoionization electron spectroscopy and mass spectrometry have shown that wealth of information can be…
Spiral phase contrast is an important and convenient imaging processing technology in edge detection, and a broader field-of-view (FOV) of imaging is a long-pursuing aim to see more regions of the illumination objects. Compared with…
Harmonic-assisted phase amplification was achieved in a 300-micrometer-thick Nd:GdVO4 laser in the self-mixing interference scheme. The key event is the self-induced skew cosh Gaussian (e.g., skew-chG) mode oscillation in a thin-slice…
Transmission losses through optical fibers are one of the main obstacles preventing both long-distance quantum communications and continuous-variable quantum key distribution. Optical amplification provides a tool to obtain, at least…
In the phase retrieval problem, an unknown vector is to be recovered given quadratic measurements. This problem has received considerable attention in recent times. In this paper, we present an algorithm to solve a nonconvex formulation of…
Timescale comparison between optical atomic clocks over ground-to-space and terrestrial free-space laser links will have enormous benefits for fundamental and applied science, from measurements of fundamental constants and searches for dark…
Optical amplification is critical for optical signal transmission. While the emergence of erbium-doped fiber amplifiers has revolutionized optical communications in fiber-based systems, on-chip amplification remains essential for integrated…
Optical parametric amplification is a second-order nonlinear process whereby an optical signal is amplified by a pump via the generation of an idler field. It is the key ingredient of tunable sources of radiation that play an important role…
In this work, we address the central problem about how to effectively find the available precision limit of unknown parameters. In the framework of the quantum Ziv-Zakai bound (QZZB), we employ noiseless linear amplification (NLA)techniques…
A planar reflective phaser based on an open-ended edge-coupled-line structure is proposed. This phaser is the first reported phaser that combines the benefits of high resolution, inherent to cross-coupled resonator reflective phasers, and…
Quantum correlation, such as entanglement and squeezing have shown to improve phase estimation in interferometric setups on one side, and non-interferometric imaging scheme of amplitude object on the other. In the last case, quantum…
In conventional quantum nondemolition measurements, the interaction between signal and probe preserves the measured variable. Alternatively, it is possible to restore the original value of the variable by feedback. In this paper, we…
We report on the amplification of an optical vortex beam carrying orbital angular momentum via induced narrow Raman gain in an ensemble of cold cesium atoms. A 20\% single-pass Raman gain of a weak vortex signal field is observed with a…
We demonstrate that important information about linear optical circuits can be obtained through the phase shift induced by integrated optical resonators. As a proof of principle, the phase of an unbalanced Mach-Zehnder interferometer is…
Entanglement distribution is crucial for quantum communication and cryptography but is hindered by channel loss and decoherence. Noiseless linear amplification (NLA) is a probabilistic protocol that supports noiseless amplification without…
Quantum-enhanced phase estimation paves the way to ultra-precision sensing and is of great realistic significance. In this paper we investigate theoretically the estimation of a second-order nonlinear phase shift using a coherent state and…
We propose a low-complexity phase recovery scheme that simultaneously mitigates laser phase noise and fiber nonlinearity across several subcarriers. In a long single-span link with Raman amplification, the scheme achieves 0.9 dB gain with…
