Experimental generation of polarization entanglement from spontaneous parametric down-conversion pumped by spatiotemporally highly incoherent light
Cheng Li, Boris Braverman, Girish Kulkarni +1
The influence of pump coherence on the entanglement produced in spontaneous parametric down-conversion (SPDC) is important to understand, both from a fundamental perspective, and f…
Selective Excitation of Subwavelength Atomic Clouds
Rasoul Alaee, Akbar Safari, Robert W. Boyd
A dense cloud of atoms with randomly changing positions exhibits coherent and incoherent scattering. We show that an atomic cloud of subwavelength dimensions can be modeled as a si…
Direct tomography of high-dimensional density matrices for general quantum states of photons
Yiyu Zhou, Jiapeng Zhao, Darrick Hay +3
Quantum state tomography is the conventional method used to characterize density matrices for general quantum states. However, the data acquisition time generally scales linearly w…
Telecom C-Band Photon-Pair Generation using Standard SMF-28 Fiber
Kyungdeuk Park, Dongjin Lee, Robert W. Boyd +1
Photon-pair generation must satisfy both the energy conservation and phase-matching conditions with a specific pump wavelength and dispersion of nonlinear optical medium, but findi…
Fundamental quantum limits in ellipsometry
L. Rudnicki, L. L. Sanchez-Soto, G. Leuchs +1
We establish the ultimate limits that quantum theory imposes on the accuracy attainable in optical ellipsometry. We show that the standard quantum limit, as usual reached when the…
Entanglement: Quantum or Classical?
Dilip Paneru, Eliahu Cohen, Robert Fickler +2
From its seemingly non-intuitive and puzzling nature, most evident in numerous EPR-like gedankenexperiments to its almost ubiquitous presence in quantum technologies, entanglement…
