Optical Analogue of the Dynamical Casimir Effect in a Dispersion-Oscillating Fibre
Stefano Vezzoli, Arnaud Mussot, Niclas Westerberg +6
The dynamical Casimir effect is the generation of pairs of real particles or photons from the vacuum as a result of a non-adiabatic change of a system parameter or boundary conditi…
Vacuum radiation and frequency-mixing in linear light-matter systems
Niclas Westerberg, Angus Prain, Daniele Faccio +1
Recent progress in photonics has led to a renewed interest in time-varying media that change on timescales comparable to the optical wave oscillation time. However, these studies t…
Ghost imaging with the human eye
Alessandro Boccolini, Alessandro Fedrizzi, Daniele Faccio
Computational ghost imaging relies on the decomposition of an image into patterns that are summed together with weights that measure the overlap of each pattern with the scene bein…
Observation of photon droplets and their dynamics
Kali E. Wilson, Niclas Westerberg, Manuel Valiente +4
We present experimental evidence of photon droplets in an attractive (focusing) nonlocal nonlinear medium. Photon droplets are self-bound, finite-sized states of light that are rob…
Computational time-of-flight diffuse optical tomography
Ashley Lyons, Francesco Tonolini, Alessandro Boccolini +4
Imaging through a strongly diffusive medium remains an outstanding challenge in particular in association with applications in biological and medical imaging. Here we propose a met…
A trillion frames per second: the techniques and applications of light-in-flight photography
Daniele Faccio, Andreas Velten
Cameras capable of capturing videos at a trillion frames per second allow to freeze light in motion, a very counterintuitive capability when related to our everyday experience in w…
