A Super-resolution Optical Classifier with High Photon Efficiency [PDF]
We propose and demonstrate a photon-efficient optical classifier to overcome the Rayleigh limit in spatial resolution. It utilizes mode-selective sum frequency generation and single-pixel photon detection to resolve closely spaced incoherent sources based on photon counting statistics.

Photon discerner: Adaptive quantum optical sensing near the shot noise limit [PDF]
Photon statistics of an optical field can be used for quantum optical sensing in low light level scenarios free of bulky optical components. However, photon-number-resolving detection to unravel the photon statistics is challenging. Here, we propose a novel detection approach, that we call `photon discerning', which uses adaptive photon thresholding ...

Photon Statistics in Adaptive Optics
ABSTRACT Random aberrations due to atmospheric turbulence determine the angular resolution of ground-based telescopes. Adaptive optics systems compensate the wavefront degradation before detection. Although systems with a large number of subapertures in the wavefront sensor and of actuators in the deformable mirror provide the best results, they are ...

Optomechanical measurement of photon spin angular momentum and optical torque in integrated photonic devices [PDF]
Photons carry linear momentum, and spin angular momentum when circularly or elliptically polarized. During light-matter interaction, transfer of linear momentum leads to optical forces, while angular momentum transfer induces optical torque. Optical forces including radiation pressure and gradient forces have long been utilized in optical tweezers and ...

Achromatic linear polarization rotators by tandem twisted nematic liquid crystal cells
An achromatic linear polarization rotator based on a tandem-2ϕ-twisted nematic liquid crystal cell (tandem-2ϕ-TNLC cell, where 2ϕ represents the total twisted angle) is theoretically analyzed and experimentally demonstrated.
