Reconstructing 2D spatial modes for classical and quantum light

Valentin A. Averchenko, Gaetano Frascella, Mahmoud Kalash +2

We propose a method for finding 2D spatial modes of thermal field through a direct measurement of the field intensity and an offline analysis of its spatial fluctuations. Using thi…

Efficient generation of temporally shaped photons using nonlocal spectral filtering

Valentin Averchenko, Denis Sych, Christoph Marquardt +1

We study the generation of single-photon pulses with the tailored temporal shape via nonlocal spectral filtering. A shaped photon is heralded from a time-energy entangled photon pa…

Off-resonant emission of photon pairs in nonlinear optical cavities

Valentin A. Averchenko, Gerhard Schunk, Michael Förtsch +4

Cavity-assisted spontaneous parametric down-conversion (SPDC) and spontaneous four-wave mixing (SFWM) in nonlinear optical materials are practical and versatile methods to generate…

Heralded temporal shaping of single photons enabled by entanglement

Valentin Averchenko, Denis Sych, Gerd Leuchs

We propose a method to produce pure single photons with an arbitrary designed temporal shape in a heralded, lossless and scalable way. As the indispensable resource, the method use…

Shaping a single photon without interacting with it

Denis Sych, Valentin Averchenko, Gerd Leuchs

Complete control over the properties of light up to the level of single photons is an invaluable tool for quantum information science and fundamental studies of light-matter intera…

How subtraction of a single photon affects many quantum modes

Valentin A. Averchenko, Clément Jacquard, Valérian Thiel +2

The subtraction of a single photon from a multimode quantum field is analyzed as the conditional evolution of an open quantum system. We develop a theory describing different subtr…
