Clavina combines linear and nonlinear quantum operations, advancing light-based quantum computing and error correction.

A recent study has unveiled a transformative nonlinear optical metasurface technology. This new technology, characterized by structures smaller than the wavelength of light, paves the way for ...

Nonlinear optical crystals are a class of materials that exhibit unique properties when interacting with light. Unlike conventional optical materials, which respond linearly to the electric field of ...

Nonlinear optics describes the regime in which the response of a material to an applied electromagnetic field depends nonlinearly on the field amplitude. Whereas in linear optics the induced ...

Materials scientists can learn a lot about a sample material by shooting lasers at it. With nonlinear optical microscopy—a specialized imaging technique that looks for a change in the color of intense ...

Nonlinear optics in tapered fibre waveguides exploits the interplay between intense light fields and the confined geometry of submicrometre-diameter fibres. Tapers, drawn from standard optical fibres ...

In the 1960s, physicists showed how light could interact with itself in intriguing ways thanks to a process known as second-harmonic generation. In the right kind of material, two photons of a certain ...

In the rapidly advancing field of photonic technology, recent discoveries in light-matter interactions with broken time-reversal symmetry promise to transform our approach to non-reciprocal optical ...
