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…
Long-range entanglement and quantum correlations in a multi-frequency comb system
Sahil Pontula, Debasmita Banerjee, Marin Soljacic +1
Frequency combs are multimode photonic systems that underlie countless precision sensing and metrology applications. Since their invention over two decades ago, numerous efforts ha…
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…
Noise-immune quantum correlations of intense light
Shiekh Zia Uddin, Nicholas Rivera, Devin Seyler +7
Lasers with high intensity generally exhibit strong intensity fluctuations far above the shot-noise level. Taming this noise is pivotal to a wide range of applications, both classi…
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…
