Far-field spatial coherence driven by lossy objects: first-principles approach unifying scattering of quantum light and thermal emission

Alessandro Ciattoni

Far-field spatial coherence dictates the interference properties of scattered light and thermal emission. Traditionally, these phenomena are treated through disjointed paradigms: c…

Quantum optomechanics of lossy bodies: general approach and structured squeezed vacuum effects

Alessandro Ciattoni

We investigate the overall optomechanical force experienced by a macroscopic lossy object in free space under external quantum illumination. To this end, utilizing the Modified Lan…

Direct derivation of the modified Langevin noise formalism from the canonical quantization of macroscopic electromagnetism

Alessandro Ciattoni

The modified Langevin noise formalism (MLNF) models the interaction of the quantized electromagnetic field with an arbitrary lossy magneto-dielectric object placed in vacuum using…

Quantum interference effects in two-photon scattering by a macroscopic lossy sphere

A. Ciattoni

We investigate the quantum optical scattering of two-photon wavepackets by a macroscopic lossy sphere by means of macroscopic quantum electrodynamics in the form of modified Langev…

Quantum optical scattering by macroscopic lossy objects: A general approach

Alessandro Ciattoni

We develop a general approach to describe the scattering of quantum light by a lossy macroscopic object placed in vacuum with no restrictions on both its dispersive optical respons…
