Is orange carotenoid protein photoactivation a single-photon process?

open access: yesBiophysical Reports, 2022
In all published photoactivation mechanisms of orange carotenoid protein (OCP), absorption of a single photon by the orange dark state starts a cascade of red-shifted OCP ground-state intermediates that subsequently decay within hundreds of milliseconds,

On the application of Two-Photon Absorption for Laser Fault Injection attacks

open access: yesTransactions on Cryptographic Hardware and Embedded Systems, 2022
Laser Fault Injection (LFI) is considered to be the most powerful semiinvasive fault injection method for implementation attacks on security devices. In this work we discuss for the first time the application of the nonlinear Two-Photon Absorption (TPA)

Photon number resolution without optical mode multiplication

open access: yesNanophotonics, 2023
Common methods to achieve photon number resolution rely on fast on-off single-photon detectors in conjunction with temporal or spatial mode multiplexing.

Heralded single-photon absorption by a single atom [PDF]

open access: yesNature Physics, 2010
The emission and absorption of single photons by single atomic particles is a fundamental limit of matter-light interaction, manifesting its quantum mechanical nature. At the same time, as a controlled process it is a key enabling tool for quantum technologies, such as quantum optical information technology [1, 2] and quantum metrology [3, 4, 5, 6 ...

First-principles calculations of the optical response of single-layer and bilayer armchair graphene nanoribbons

open access: yesFrontiers in Nanotechnology, 2022
Electronic and optical properties of single-layer and bilayer armchair graphene nanoribbons are investigated using a first-principles method. Increased nanoribbon width reduces the band gap and causes a red shift in photon absorption energy.

Cooperative single-photon absorption at interfaces [PDF]

open access: yesChemical Physics Letters, 1994
The pairwise absorption of light by chemically distinct molecules in close proximity can result in their cooperative single-photon excitation. It is shown how new characteristics emerge where the two molecular species concerned lie on opposite sides of a phase boundary or interface, as for example with two immiscible liquids, one polar and the other ...

Removal of a single photon by adaptive absorption [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review A, 2001
We present a method to remove, using only linear optics, exactly one photon from a field-mode. This is achieved by putting the system in contact with an absorbing environment which is under continuous monitoring. A feedback mechanism then decouples the system from the environment as soon as the first photon is absorbed.

Witnessing entangled two-photon absorption via quantum interferometry

open access: yesAPL Photonics, 2023
Recent investigations have suggested that the use of non-classical states of light, such as entangled photon pairs, may open new and exciting avenues in experimental two-photon absorption spectroscopy.

Comparing confocal and two-photon Ca2+ imaging of thin low-scattering preparations

open access: yesBiophysical Reports, 2023
Ca2+ imaging provides insight into biological processes ranging from subcellular dynamics to neural network activity. Two-photon microscopy has assumed a dominant role in Ca2+ imaging.
