We demonstrate the transduction of macroscopic quantum correlations by Ag localized surface plasmons (LSPs). Quantum noise reduction, or squeezed light, generated through four-wave mixing in Rb vapor, is coupled to a Ag nanohole array designed to exhibit LSP-mediated extraordinary-optical transmission spectrally coincident with the squeezed light source at 795 nm. This first demonstration of th...

Eigenmodes of three-wave interactions in second-order [X((2))] nonlinear materials are explored that have a noenergy-exchange property between all the waves. They are shown to exhibit cross-induced nonlinear refraction and to be ideal candidates for amplitude-dependent phase control in X((2)) materials that emulate nonlinear refractive-index effects in third-order [X((3))] materials. It is show...

Although previous studies have attempted to address the challenge of land subdivision, there is still a scarcity in the literature on how the extent of conformity to land subdivision planning regulations may be statistically and spatially analyzed. This study, therefore, explores the extent to which residential developers comply with land subdivision planning regulations in Kenya, a case study ...

Trauma and stressor related disorders include disorders in which exposure to a traumatic or stressful event is listed explicitly as a diagnostic criterion. These include reactive attachment disorder, posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), acute stress disorder, and adjustment disorders. Psychological distress following exposure to a traumatic or stressful event is quite variable. In some cases, ...
