"transverse" in vacuum. Namely, the waves’ oscillatory electric and
magnetic fields are confined within a plane transverse to the waves’
propagation direction. Thus, the polarisation of these fields can be
described by an arbitrary vectorial superposition of two vectors lying
in the transverse plane. Though... -

Trapped ions are a leading hardware platform for quantum information processing, in particular quantum simulation. Qubits or (pseudo-)spin states encoded in the internal electronic structure of ions can be precisely controlled, and quantum coherence for individual qubits can last for several minutes. Phonon-mediated programmable long range inter-spin interactions can be engineered by shining...

We have developed a photonic device for the detection of gases at sub-ppmv levels of concentration using a modified Intra Cavity Absorption Spectroscopy (ICAS) technique [Technique for the detection of trace gases using intracavity fiber laser absorption spectroscopy (IFLAS), G Das - US Patent 9,705,277, 2017]. In the new ICAS technique, the system was operated near the laser threshold...

We construct a model for surface-plasmon polaritons propagation along lossy curved interfaces and introduce a set of conditions to characterize surface-plasmon polaritons propagation at these interfaces. Mathematically, we employ conformal transformation to map the curved interfaces between lossy linear, isotropic and homogeneous materials to planar interfaces between lossy inhomogeneous...
