A reversible optical memory for twisted photons

L. Veissier, A. Nicolas, L. Giner +4

We report on an experiment in which orbital angular momentum of light is mapped at the single-photon level into and out of a cold atomic ensemble. Based on the dynamic electromagne…

A single ion coupled to an optical fiber cavity

Matthias Steiner, Hendrik M. Meyer, Christian Deutsch +2

We present the realization of a combined trapped-ion and optical cavity system, in which a single Yb^+ ion is confined by a micron-scale ion trap inside a 230 mum-long optical fibe…

Pairwise summation approximation for Casimir potentials and its limitations

Anne-Florence Bitbol, Antoine Canaguier-Durand, Astrid Lambrecht +1

We investigate the error made by the pairwise summation (PWS) approximation in three geometries where the exact formula for the Casimir interaction is known: atom-slab, slab-slab a…

A high-fidelity single-photon source based on a type-II optical parametric oscillator

Olivier Morin, Virginia D'Auria, Claude Fabre +1

Using a continuous-wave type-II optical parametric oscillator below threshold, we have demonstrated a novel source of heralded single-photons with high-fidelity. The generated stat…

Witnessing trustworthy single-photon entanglement with local homodyne measurements

Olivier Morin, Jean-Daniel Bancal, Melvyn Ho +5

Single-photon entangled states, i.e. states describing two optical paths sharing a single photon, constitute the simplest form of entanglement. Yet they provide a valuable resource…

Classical Casimir interaction in the plane-sphere geometry

Antoine Canaguier-Durand, Gert-Ludwig Ingold, Marc-Thierry Jaekel +3

We study the Casimir interaction in the plane-sphere geometry in the classical limit of high temperatures. In this limit, the finite conductivity of the metallic plates needs to be…

A time/frequency quantum analysis of the light generated by synchronously pumped optical parametric oscillators

Shifeng Jiang, Nicolas Treps, Claude Fabre

We present in this paper a general model for determining the quantum properties of the light generated by a synchronously pumped optical parametric oscillator (SPOPO) operating bel…

Field locked to Fock state by quantum feedback with single photon corrections

X. Zhou, I. Dotsenko, B. Peaudecerf +6

Fock states with photon numbers n up to 7 are prepared on demand in a microwave superconducting cavity by a quantum feedback procedure which reverses decoherence-induced quantum ju…
