Observation of nonlinear bands in near-field scanning optical microscopy of a photonic-crystal waveguide
Amandev Singh, Georgios Ctistis, Simon R. Huisman +4
We have measured the photonic bandstructure of GaAs photonic-crystal waveguides with high energy and momentum resolution using near-field scanning optical microscopy. Intriguingly,…
Programmable multiport optical circuits in opaque scattering materials
Simon R. Huisman, Thomas J. Huisman, Tom A. W. Wolterink +2
We propose and experimentally verify a method to program the effective transmission matrix of general multiport linear optical circuits in random multiple-scattering materials by p…
Programming balanced optical beam splitters in white paint
S. R. Huisman, T. J. Huisman, S. A. Goorden +2
Wavefront shaping allows for ultimate control of light propagation in multiple-scattering media by adaptive manipulation of incident waves. We shine two separate wavefront-shaped b…
Characterization of a Quantum Light Source Based on Spontaneous Parametric Down-Conversion
Thomas J. Huisman, Simon R. Huisman, Allard P. Mosk +1
We have built a quantum light source capable of producing different types of quantum states. The quantum light source is based on entangled state preparation in the process of spon…
Controlling single-photon Fock-state propagation through opaque scattering materials
Thomas J. Huisman, Simon R. Huisman, Allard P. Mosk +1
The control of light scattering is essential in many quantum optical experiments. Wavefront shaping is a technique used for ultimate control over wave propagation in multiple-scatt…
Photonic-Crystal Waveguides with Disorder: Measurement of a Band-Edge Tail in the Density of States
S. R. Huisman, G. Ctistis, S. Stobbe +6
We measure localized and extended mode profiles at the band edge of slow-light photonic-crystal waveguides using phase-sensitive near-field microscopy. High-resolution band structu…
Extraction of optical Bloch modes in a photonic-crystal waveguide
S. R. Huisman, G. Ctistis, S. Stobbe +4
We perform phase-sensitive near-field scanning optical microscopy on photonic-crystal waveguides. The observed intricate field patterns are analyzed by spatial Fourier transformati…
Observation of sub-Bragg diffraction of waves in crystals
Simon R. Huisman, Rajesh V. Nair, Alex Hartsuiker +3
We investigate the diffraction conditions and associated formation of stopgaps for waves in crystals with different Bravais lattices. We identify a prominent stopgap in high-symmet…
Inhibited spontaneous emission of quantum dots observed in a 3D photonic band gap
M. D. Leistikow, A. P. Mosk, E. Yeganegi +3
We present time-resolved emission experiments of semiconductor quantum dots in silicon 3D inverse-woodpile photonic band gap crystals. A systematic study is made of crystals with a…
Controlling the quality factor of a tuning-fork resonance between 9 K and 300 K for scanning-probe microscopy
Georgios Ctistis, Eric Frater, Simon R. Huisman +4
We study the dynamic response of a mechanical quartz tuning fork in the temperature range from 9 K to 300 K. Since the quality factor Q of the resonance strongly depends on tempera…
Signature of a three-dimensional photonic band gap observed on silicon inverse woodpile photonic crystals
Simon R. Huisman, Rajesh V. Nair, Léon A. Woldering +3
We have studied the reflectivity of CMOS-compatible three-dimensional silicon inverse woodpile photonic crystals at near-infrared frequencies. Polarization-resolved reflectivity sp…
A bridge between the single-photon and squeezed-vacuum state
Nitin Jain, S. R. Huisman, Erwan Bimbard +1
The two modes of the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen quadrature entangled state generated by parametric down-conversion interfere on a beam splitter of variable splitting ratio. Detection…
Instant single-photon Fock state tomography
S. R. Huisman, Nitin Jain, S. A. Babichev +4
Heralded single photons are prepared at a rate of ~100 kHz via conditional measurements on polarization-nondegenerate biphotons produced in a periodically poled KTP crystal. The si…
