Basis- and Channel-Selective Quantum Photodetection
Mohamed Hatifi, Brian Stout
Photodetection converts optical quantum states into measurement events, but the usual electric-field response model becomes restrictive when the detector response is shaped by cavi…

Contextual Light-Particle Interference
Brian Stout
We propose and analyze a generalized model of photodetection in which the detector couples simultaneously to both electric and magnetic components of the electromagnetic field. Ext…

T-matrix representation of optical scattering response: Suggestion for a data format
Nigar Asadova, Karim Achouri, Kristian Arjas +39
The transition matrix, frequently abbreviated as T-matrix, contains the complete information in a linear approximation of how a spatially localized object scatters an incident fiel…
