Towards real-world quantum networks: a review
Shi-Hai Wei, Bo Jing, Xue-Ying Zhang +11
Quantum networks play an extremely important role in quantum information science, with application to quantum communication, computation, metrology and fundamental tests. One of th…
Quasinormal mode theory for nanoscale electromagnetism with quantum surface responses
Qiang Zhou, Pu Zhang, Xue-Wen Chen
We report a self-consistent quasinormal mode theory for nanometer scale electromagnetism where the possible nonlocal and quantum effects are treated through quantum surface respons…
Spectrally multiplexed heralded single photon source at telecom-band
Hao Yu, Chenzhi Yuan, Ruiming Zhang +9
Heralded single photon source (HSPS) is an important way in generating genuine single photon, having advantages of experimental simplicity and versatility. However, HSPS intrinsica…
High-performance quantum entanglement generation via cascaded second-order nonlinear processes
Zichang Zhang, Chenzhi Yuan, Si Shen +12
In this paper, we demonstrate the generation of high-performance entangled photon-pairs in different degrees of freedom from a single piece of fiber pigtailed periodically poled Li…
A general framework of canonical quasinormal mode analysis for extreme nano-optics
Qiang Zhou, Pu Zhang, Xue-Wen Chen
Optical phenomena associated with extremely localized field should be understood with considerations of nonlocal and quantum effects, which pose a hurdle to conceptualize the physi…
Bright Optical Eigenmode with about 1 nm Volume
Wancong Li, Qiang Zhou, Pu Zhang +1
Concentrating optical field in an eigenmode with a tiny volume is vitally important for light-matter interactions at the fundamental level and underpins new technologies. In the pa…
