Mechanisms governing photon-pair generation and emission directionality in quantum metasurfaces
Alberto Paniate, Ivano Ruo-Berchera, Francesco Monticone
Metasurfaces are emerging as a promising platform for photon-pair generation through spontaneous parametric down-conversion, thanks to their compactness, integrability, and intrins…
Efficient photon-pair emission from a nanostructured resonator and its theoretical description
Michael Poloczek, Alberto Paniate, Attilio Zilli +12
Spontaneous parametric down-conversion (SPDC) in subwavelength nanostructures is a promising source of quantum light, owing to its multifunctionality and ability to generate comple…
Chernoff Information Bottleneck for Covert Quantum Target Sensing
Giuseppe Ortolano, Ivano Ruo-Berchera, Leonardo Banchi
The paradigm of quantum metrology and sensing aims to identify a quantum advantage in precision at a fixed energy of the probe state. However, in practice, employing high-energy cl…
High resolution quantum enhanced phase imaging of cells
Alberto Paniate, Giuseppe Ortolano, Sarika Soman +2
Recovering both amplitude and phase information from a system is a fundamental goal of optical imaging. At the same time, it is crucial to operate at low photon doses to avoid alte…
A short history of Quantum Illumination
Marco Genovese, Ivano Ruo-Berchera
Quantum illumination represents one of the most interesting examples of quantum technologies. On the one hand, it can find significant applications; on the other hand, it is one of…
