Diagonalizing an optical coherence matrix via on-chip Stokes tomography
Amin Hashemi, Abbas Shiri, Bahaa E. A. Saleh +2
Structured coherence -- partially coherent light spanned by a finite number of modes -- is emerging as a powerful tool in optical communications, computation, cryptography, and spe…
On-chip measurement of the modal Stokes-Gell-Mann parameters for partially coherent three-mode light
Amin Hashemi, Abbas Shiri, Bahaa E. A. Saleh +2
The Stokes parameters are three real parameters that completely characterize partially coherent optical fields spanned by two modes -- whether a pair of polarization or spatial mod…
On-chip control of the coherence matrix of four-mode partially coherent light: rank, entropy, and modal Stokes parameters
Amin Hashemi, Abbas Shiri, Bahaa E. A. Saleh +2
Partially coherent light offers salutary capabilities in optical information processing that cannot be matched by coherent light. To date, this `coherence advantage' has been confi…
Programmable on-chip synthesis and reconstruction of partially coherent two-mode optical fields
Amin Hashemi, Abbas Shiri, Bahaa E. A. Saleh +2
Partially coherent light is typically studied in the context of freely propagating continuous fields. Recent developments have indicated the existence of a `coherence advantage' in…
Bridging the gap between ultrafast optics and resonant photonics via omni-resonance
Abbas Shiri, Kenneth L. Schepler, Ayman F. Abouraddy
High-finesse planar Fabry-P{é}rot (FP) cavities spectrally filter the incident field at discrete resonances, and thus cannot be utilized to resonantly enhance the field of ultrash…
