Vacuum Fluctuation-Induced State Switching in Degenerate Optical Parametric Oscillators
Yihao Huang, Seou Choi, Rom Simovitch +5
Bistable driven-dissipative systems near bifurcations can exhibit noise-activated switching between steady states. Here, we investigate how quantum vacuum fluctuations induce such…
Programmable control of the spatiotemporal quantum noise of light
Jamison Sloan, Michael Horodynski, Shiekh Zia Uddin +6
Optoelectronic systems based on multiple modes of light can often exceed the performance of their single-mode counterparts. However, multimode nonlinear interactions often introduc…
Quantum sensitivity of parametric oscillators
Alex Gu, Jamison Sloan, Charles Roques-Carmes +6
Many quantum systems exhibit high sensitivity to their initial conditions, where microscopic quantum fluctuations can significantly influence macroscopic observables. Understanding…
Observing the dynamics of quantum states generated inside nonlinear optical cavities
Seou Choi, Yannick Salamin, Charles Roques-Carmes +3
Quantum states at optical frequencies are often generated inside cavities to facilitate strong nonlinear interactions. However, measuring these quantum states with traditional homo…
