Kavli Affiliate: Alireza Marandi | First 5 Authors: Marc Jankowski, Nayara Jornod, Carsten Langrock, Boris Desiatov, Alireza Marandi | Summary: The generation and amplification of photons by parametric down-conversion in quadratic nonlinear media is used as a source of entangled photons, squeezed light, and short optical pulses at difficult to access wavelengths. Optical nonlinearities are […]
Kavli Affiliate: Alireza Marandi | First 5 Authors: Marc Jankowski, Nayara Jornod, Carsten Langrock, Boris Desiatov, Alireza Marandi | Summary: High-gain optical parametric amplification is an important nonlinear process used both as a source of coherent infrared light and as a source of nonclassical light. In this work, we experimentally demonstrate an approach to optical […]
Kavli Affiliate: Austin J. Minnich | First 5 Authors: Hirsh Kamakari, Shi-Ning Sun, Mario Motta, Austin J. Minnich, | Summary: Quantum simulation on emerging quantum hardware is a topic of intense interest. While many studies focus on computing ground state properties or simulating unitary dynamics of closed systems, open quantum systems are an interesting target […]
Kavli Affiliate: James Bock | First 5 Authors: Phillip Korngut, Min Gyu Kim, Toshiaki Arai, Priyadarshini Bangale, James Bock | Summary: Scattered sunlight from the interplanetary dust (IPD) cloud in our Solar system presents a serious foreground challenge for spectro-photometric measurements of the Extragalactic Background Light (EBL). In this work, we report on measurements of […]

Kavli Affiliate: Scott K. Cushing | First 5 Authors: Ilana J. Porter, Angela Lee, Scott K. Cushing, Hung-Tzu Chang, Justin C. Ondry | Summary: Silicon nanoparticles have the promise to surpass the theoretical efficiency limit of single-junction silicon photovoltaics by the creation of a "phonon bottleneck", a theorized slowing of the cooling rate of hot […]
Kavli Affiliate: Alireza Marandi | First 5 Authors: Christian Leefmans, Avik Dutt, James Williams, Luqi Yuan, Midya Parto | Summary: Topological phases feature robust edge states that are protected against the effects of defects and disorder. The robustness of these states presents opportunities to design technologies that are tolerant to fabrication errors and resilient to […]
Kavli Affiliate: Scott K. Cushing | First 5 Authors: Szilard Szoke, Manni He, Bryce P. Hickam, Scott K. Cushing, | Summary: Entangled photon spectroscopy is a nascent field that has important implications for measurement and imaging across chemical, biology, and materials fields. Entangled photon spectroscopy potentially offers improved spatial and temporal-frequency resolutions, increased cross sections […]
Kavli Affiliate: Chiara Daraio | First 5 Authors: Berthy T. Feng, Alexander C. Ogren, Chiara Daraio, Katherine L. Bouman, | Summary: An object’s interior material properties, while invisible to the human eye, determine motion observed on its surface. We propose an approach that estimates heterogeneous material properties of an object from a monocular video of […]
