Observation of linear and nonlinear light trapping on topological dislocations
S. K. Ivanov, A. V. Kireev, K. Sabour +11
Topological dislocations in otherwise periodic lattices represent global structural defects that, nevertheless, typically leave the lattice periodicity intact far from the dislocat…
Observation of nonlinear higher-order topological insulators with unconventional boundary truncations
Changming Huang, Alexander V. Kireev, Yuxin Jiang +10
In higher-order topological insulators (HOTIs), topologically nontrivial phases are usually associated with the shift of Wannier centers to topologically nontrivial positions on th…
Experimental loopback boson sampling
Yu. A. Biriukov, R. D. Morozov, K. I. Okhlopkov +15
We present an experimental demonstration of boson sampling enhanced by optical feedback lines, a novel approach that introduces temporal correlations among photons to amplify compu…
Observation of nonlinear topological corner states originating from different spectral charges
Victor O. Kompanets, Suge Feng, Yiqi Zhang +11
Higher-order topological insulators (HOTIs) are unique topological materials supporting edge states with the dimensionality at least by two lower than the dimensionality of the und…
Observation of Light Localization at the Edges of Quasicrystal Waveguide Arrays
S. K. Ivanov, S. A. Zhuravitskii, N. S. Kostyuchenko +10
Quasicrystals are unique systems that, unlike periodic structures, lack translational symmetry but exhibit long-range order dramatically enriching the system properties. While evol…
Programmable entangled qubit states on a linear-optical platform
N. N. Skryabin, Yu. A. Biriukov, M. A. Dryazgov +22
We present an experimental platform for linear-optical quantum information processing. Our setup utilizes multiphoton generation using a high-quality single-photon source, which is…
