Tunable entangled photon-pair generation in a liquid crystal

2024 · Nature

Abstract Liquid crystals, with their ability to self-assemble, strong response to an electric field and integrability into complex systems, are key materials in light-beam manipulation 1 . The recently discovered ferroelectric nematic liquid crystals 2,3 …

Quantum, Nonlinear, and Nano Optics Meet

2025

Quantum states of light, such as single photons, pairs of entangled photons, and squeezed light are a key resource for photonic quantum technologies. All these states can be obtained via the nonlinear optical effect of …
