Discovery of Parabolic Microresonators Produced via Fiber Tapering
Dashiell L. P. Vitullo, Gabriella Gardosi, Sajid Zaki +3
We demonstrate a new method for creation of surface nanoscale axial photonics (SNAP) microresonators with harmonic profiles via fiber tapering in a laser-heated microfurnace. The s…
Entanglement Swapping for Generation of Heralded Time-Frequency-Entangled Photon Pairs
Dashiell L. P. Vitullo, M. G. Raymer, B. J. Smith +3
Photonic time-frequency entanglement is a promising resource for quantum information processing technologies. We investigate swapping of continuous-variable entanglement in the tim…
Localization of light in an optical microcapillary introduced by a droplet
Tabassom Hamidfar, Kirill V. Tokmakov, Brian J. Mangan +5
Sensing with optical whispering gallery modes (WGMs) is a rapidly developing detection method in modern microfluidics research. This method explores the perturbations of spectra of…
Double-heralded generation of two-photon-states by spontaneous four-wave-mixing in the presence of noise
Roger A. Smith, Dileep V. Reddy, Dashiell L. P. Vitullo +1
We present an experimental method for creating and verifying photon-number states created by non-degenerate, third-order nonlinear-optical photon-pair sources. By using spatially m…
