All-optical switching of nonlinear structured light in crystal-engineered van der Waals materials

Paolo Valisa, Marc Richstaetter, Bianca Sanfilippo +9

The orbital angular momentum (OAM) of light is a discrete, unbounded degree of freedom that underpins mode-multiplexed communications and high-dimensional quantum photonics. Yet, d…

Scaling native entanglement generation in layered semiconductors with quasi-phase matching

Benjamin Braun, Andrea Alessandrini, Josip Bajo +10

Efficient generation of entangled photons typically relies on spontaneous parametric down-conversion (SPDC) in phase-matched macroscopic nonlinear media. However, generating entang…
