Detector-Conditioned Source-Space Nulls and Null-Mask Loss in a Programmable Two-Slit Interferometer
Jianming Wen
Afshar's double-slit experiment probes wave--particle complementarity by placing a wire grid at the dark fringes of a downstream interference pattern while retaining an imaging bas…
Entropic Reciprocity in Time-Reversed Young Interferometry
Jianming Wen
We show that time-reversed Young interferometry reorganizes, rather than reverses, optical entropy. A fixed detector conditions the reciprocal source--detector Green function and p…
Quadrature-PT symmetry: Classical-to-quantum transition in noise fluctuations
Wencong Wang, Yanhua Zhai, Dongmei Liu +3
While gain-loss-coupled photonic platforms have achieved significant success in studying classical parity-time (PT) symmetry, they encounter challenges in demonstrating pure quantu…
Direct generation of time-energy-entangled W triphotons in atomic vapor
Kangkang Li, Jianming Wen, Yin Cai +6
Sources of entangled multiphotons are not only essential for fundamental tests of quantum foundations, but are also the cornerstone of a variety of optical quantum technologies tod…
