Microscopic quantum description of surface plasmon polaritons: Revealing intrinsic ultrastrong light-matter coupling

Florian Maurer, Thomas F. Allard, Yanko Todorov +2

We develop a microscopic quantum theory of surface plasmon polaritons valid for arbitrary metal-dielectric geometries. Our framework is based on the Power-Zienau-Woolley representa…

Plasmonic metamaterial time crystal

Tingwen Guo, Jules Sueiro, Gian Marcello Andolina +18

Periodically driven optical materials and metamaterials have recently emerged as a promising platform for realizing photonic time crystals (PTCs), which are systems whose optical p…

A diffusion model for light scattering in ejecta

J. A. Don Jayamanne, J. -R. Burie, O. Durand +2

We derive a diffusion equation for light scattering from ejecta produced by extreme shocks on metallic samples. This model is easier to handle than a more conventional model based…

Harnessing coherent-wave control for sensing applications

Pablo Jara, Arthur Goetschy, Hui Cao +1

Imaging techniques such as functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) and diffuse optical tomography (DOT) achieve deep, non-invasive sensing in turbid media, but they are const…

Performance and uses of the Refimeve metrological signal, 1000 km from the source

Collombon Mathieu, Cantin Etienne, Hagel Gaëtan +3

We present a detailed analysis of the end-user performance of the metrological signal at 1542 nm disseminated by the French national fibre network Refimeve, about 1000 km from the…

Theoretical predictions for ultrasensitive sensing in three-dimensional stochastic interferometry

Guillaume Graciani, Marcel Filoche

We show that a random light field can be harnessed for high-precision metrology by introducing specific boundary conditions in the form of Lambertian reflections inside a cavity. W…
