Integral estimator of broadband omnidirectionality

A. G. Barriuso, J. J. Monzon, L. L. Sanchez-Soto +1

By using the notion of wavelength- and angle-averaged reflectance, we assess in a systematic way the performance of finite omnidirectional reflectors. We put forward how this conce…

Maximally polarized states for quantum light fields

L. L. Sanchez-Soto, E. C. Yustas, G. Bjork +1

The degree of polarization of a quantum state can be defined as its Hilbert-Schmidt distance to the set of unpolarized states. We demonstrate that the states optimizing this degree…

Mutually unbiased bases and discrete Wigner functions

Gunnar Bjork, Jose L. Romero, Andrei B. Klimov +1

Mutually unbiased bases and discrete Wigner functions are closely, but not uniquely related. Such a connection becomes more interesting when the Hilbert space has a dimension that…

Minimum uncertainty measurements of angle and angular momentum

Z. Hradil, J. Rehacek, Z. Bouchal +2

The uncertainty relations for angle and angular momentum are revisited. We use the exponential of the angle instead of the angle itself and adopt dispersion as a natural measure of…

Characterizing the reflectance near the Brewster angle: a Pade-approximant approach

Teresa Yonte, Luis L. Sanchez-Soto

We characterize the reflectance peak near the Brewster angle for both an interface between two dielectric media and a single slab. To approach this problem analytically, we approxi…
