Timekeeping precision enhancements at constant power

K. J. H. Peters, B. Braeckeveldt, B. Maes +1

We demonstrate precision enhancements in a timekeeping device at constant power and regardless of the operation frequency. Our timekeeping device is a laser-driven coupled-cavity s…

Continuous-Wave Nonlinear Polarization Control and Signatures of Criticality in a Perovskite Cavity

G. Keijsers, R. M. de Boer, B. Verdonschot +3

Halide perovskites have emerged as promising photonic materials for fundamental physics studies and technological applications. Their potential for nonlinear optics has also drawn…

Weak Ergodicity Breaking in Optical Sensing

V. G. Ramesh, S. R. K. Rodriguez

The time-integrated intensity transmitted by a laser driven resonator obeys Lévy's arcsine laws [Ramesh \textit{et al.}, Phys. Rev. Lett. \textit{in press} (2024)]. Here we demonst…

Spontaneous symmetry breaking in plasmon lattice lasers

Nelson de Gaay Fortman, Radoslaw Kolkowski, Debapriya Pal +3

Spontaneous symmetry breaking (SSB) is key for our understanding of phase transitions and the spontaneous emergence of order. Photonics provide versatile systems to study SSB. In t…

Spontaneous symmetry breaking in diffraction

J. Abad-Arredondo, Z. Geng, G. Keijsers +4

The connection between symmetries and conservation laws is a cornerstone of physics. It underlies Bloch's theorem which explains wave phenomena in all linear periodic systems. Here…

Spontaneous symmetry breaking in a coherently driven nanophotonic Bose-Hubbard dimer

B. Garbin, A. Giraldo, K. J. H. Peters +7

We report on the first experimental observation of spontaneous mirror symmetry breaking (SSB) in coherently driven-dissipative coupled optical cavities. SSB is observed as the brea…

Exceptional precision of a nonlinear optical sensor at a square-root singularity

K. J. H. Peters, S. R. K. Rodriguez

Exceptional points (EPs) -- spectral singularities of non-Hermitian linear systems -- have recently attracted great interest for sensing. While initial proposals and experiments fo…

Steady-state superfluidity of light in a tunable cavity at room temperature

G. Keijsers, Z. Geng, K. J. H. Peters +2

Light in a nonlinear cavity is expected to flow without friction -- like a superfluid -- under certain conditions. Until now, part-light part-matter (i.e., polariton) superfluids h…

Non-Markovian Stochastic Resonance of Light in a Microcavity

K. J. H. Peters, Z. Geng, K. Malmir +2

We report the first observation of non-Markovian stochastic resonance, i.e., noise-assisted amplification of a periodic signal in a system with memory. Our system is an oil-filled…

Non-reciprocity and zero reflection in nonlinear cavities with tailored loss

S. R. K. Rodriguez, V. Goblot, N. Carlon Zambon +2

We demonstrate how to tailor the losses of nonlinear cavities in order to suppress their reflection and enhance their non-reciprocal transmission. We derive analytical expressions…
