Colors of entangled two-photon absorption
Multiphoton absorption of entangled photons offers ways for obtaining unique information about chemical and biological processes. Measurements with entangled photons may enable sensing biological signatures with high selectivity and at very low light levels to protect against photodamage.

Optical signal processing via two-photon absorption in a semiconductor microcavity for the next generation of high-speed optical communications network [PDF]
Due to the introduction of new broadband services, individual line data rates are expected to exceed 100 Gb/s in the near future. To operate at these high speeds, new optical signal processing techniques will have to be developed.

Spatial Properties of Entangled Two-Photon Absorption
We experimentally study entangled two-photon absorption in Rhodamine 6G as a function of the spatial properties of a high flux of broadband entangled photon pairs. We first demonstrate a key signature dependence of the entangled two-photon absorption rate on the type of entangled pair flux attenuation: linear, when the laser pump power is attenuated ...

Two-Photon Absorption of Nonclassical Light [PDF]
Two-photon absorption of light with nonclassical (squeezed) fluctuations is considered. Several unique effects are predicted for various possible regimes. These include a linear (instead of quadratic) growth of the absorption rate with the light intensity for weak fields, the possibility of a decreasing absorption with increasing intensity, and orders ...

Expanding the range of chromatic dispersion monitoring with two-photon absorption in semiconductors [PDF]
Chromatic dispersion monitoring based on two-photon absorption (TPA) in semiconductors is very attractive because it does not need any high speed electronic devices (Inui, 2002).
