Fast Adaptive Optics for High-Dimensional Quantum Communications in Turbulent Channels
Lukas Scarfe, Felix Hufnagel, Manuel F. Ferrer-Garcia +3
Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) promises a provably secure method to transmit information from one party to another. Free-space QKD allows for this information to be sent over great…
Secure communication using low dimensional topological elements
Manuel F. Ferrer-Garcia, Avishy Carmi, Alessio D'Errico +3
Low-dimensional topological objects, such as knots and braids, have become prevalent in multiple areas of physics, such as fluid dynamics, optics, and quantum information processin…
Full-mode Characterisation of Correlated Photon Pairs Generated in Spontaneous Downconversion
Alessio D'Errico, Felix Hufnagel, Filippo Miatto +2
Spontaneous parametric downconversion is the primary source to generate entangled photon pairs in quantum photonics laboratories. Depending on the experimental design, the generate…
Polychromatic Electric Field Knots
Manuel F. Ferrer-Garcia, Alessio D'Errico, Alicia Sit +2
The polarization of a monochromatic optical beam lies in a plane, and in general, is described by an ellipse, known as the polarization ellipse. The polarization ellipse in the tig…
Bloch-Landau-Zener dynamics induced by a synthetic field in a photonic quantum walk
Alessio D'Errico, Raouf Barboza, Rebeca Tudor +4
Quantum walks are processes that model dynamics in coherent systems. Their experimental implementations proved key to unveil novel phenomena in Floquet topological insulators. Here…
Bulk detection of time-dependent topological transitions in quenched chiral models
Alessio D'Errico, Francesco Di Colandrea, Raouf Barboza +5
The topology of one-dimensional chiral systems is captured by the winding number of the Hamiltonian eigenstates. Here we show that this invariant can be read-out by measuring the m…
