Entangled-photon ellipsometry
Performing reliable measurements in optical metrology, such as those needed in ellipsometry, requires a calibrated source and detector, or a wellcharacterized reference sample. We present a novel interferometric technique to perform reliable ellipsometric measurements. This technique relies on the use of a non-classical optical source, namely polarization-entangled twin photons generated by spo...
متن کاملEntangled-photon Fourier optics
Entangled photons, generated by spontaneous parametric down-conversion from a second-order nonlinear crystal, present a rich potential for imaging and image-processing applications. Since this source is an example of a threewave mixing process, there is more flexibility in the choices of illumination and detection wavelengths and in the placement of object(s) to be imaged. Moreover, this source...
متن کاملEntangled-Photon Microscopy
All forms of microscopy that have previously been developed rely on classical sources of light, which are relatively noisy by virtue of the photons arriving randomly in time and position. We propose a new technique of two-beam optical microscopy using a nonclassical light source comprising entangled photon pairs generated by the process of nonlinear optical parametric downconversion. Entangled-...

متن کاملEntangled-photon coincidence fluorescence imaging.
We describe fluorescence imaging using the second-order correlation of entangled photon pairs. The proposed method is based on the principle that one photon of the pair carries information on where the other photon has been absorbed and has produced fluorescence in a sample. Because fluorescent molecules serve as "detectors" breaking the entanglement, multiply-scattered fluorescence photons wit...
