Distinguishing nonlinear processes in atomic media via orbital angular momentum transfer

Alexander M. Akulshin, Russell J. McLean, Eugeniy E. Mikhailov +1

We suggest a technique based on the transfer of topological charge from applied laser radiation to directional and coherent optical fields generated in ladder-type excited atomic m…

Excess optical quantum noise in atomic sensors

Irina Novikova, Eugeniy E. Mikhailov, Yanhong Xiao

Enhanced nonlinear optical response of a coherent atomic medium is the basis for many atomic sensors, and their performance is ultimately limited by the quantum fluctuations of the…

Discontinuity of Maximum Entropy Inference and Quantum Phase Transitions

Jianxin Chen, Zhengfeng Ji, Chi-Kwong Li +5

In this paper, we discuss the connection between two genuinely quantum phenomena --- the discontinuity of quantum maximum entropy inference and quantum phase transitions at zero te…

Solution to time-energy costs of quantum channels

Chi-Hang Fred Fung, H. F. Chau, Chi-Kwong Li +1

We derive a formula for the time-energy costs of general quantum channels proposed in [Phys. Rev. A 88, 012307 (2013)]. This formula allows us to numerically find the time-energy c…

Novel Properties of Twisted-Light Absorption

Andrei Afanasev, Carl E. Carlson, Asmita Mukherjee

We discuss novel features of twisted-light absorption both by hydrogen-like atoms and by micro-particles. First, we extend the treatment of atomic photoexcitation by twisted photon…
