Modulational and filamentational instabilities of intense photon pulses and their dynamics in a photon gas.
It is shown that an intense photon pulse interacting nonlinearly with sound waves in a photon gas is subjected to modulational and filamentational instabilities. Starting from a new set of coupled equations governing nonlinear photon-photon interactions, we derive a dispersion relation which depicts the temporal and spatial amplification rates of the modulational and filamentational instabiliti...
متن کاملEntangled-photon ellipsometry
Performing reliable measurements in optical metrology, such as those needed in ellipsometry, requires a calibrated source and detector, or a wellcharacterized reference sample. We present a novel interferometric technique to perform reliable ellipsometric measurements. This technique relies on the use of a non-classical optical source, namely polarization-entangled twin photons generated by spo...
متن کاملEntangled-photon Fourier optics
Entangled photons, generated by spontaneous parametric down-conversion from a second-order nonlinear crystal, present a rich potential for imaging and image-processing applications. Since this source is an example of a threewave mixing process, there is more flexibility in the choices of illumination and detection wavelengths and in the placement of object(s) to be imaged. Moreover, this source...
متن کاملEntangled-Photon Microscopy
All forms of microscopy that have previously been developed rely on classical sources of light, which are relatively noisy by virtue of the photons arriving randomly in time and position. We propose a new technique of two-beam optical microscopy using a nonclassical light source comprising entangled photon pairs generated by the process of nonlinear optical parametric downconversion. Entangled-...
