An optical Eratosthenes' sieve for large prime numbers
Bohan Li, G. Maltese, J. I. Costa-Filho +2
We report the first experimental demonstration of prime number sieve via linear optics. The prime numbers distribution is encoded in the intensity zeros of the far field produced b…

Engineering Schrödinger cat states with a photonic even-parity detector
G. S. Thekkadath, B. A. Bell, I. A. Walmsley +1
When two equal photon-number states are combined on a balanced beam splitter, both output ports of the beam splitter contain only even numbers of photons. Consider the time-reversa…
