Plug-and-play measurement of chromatic dispersion by means of two-photon interferometry
International audience; Since the first proof-of-principle experiments 25 years ago, quantum metrology has matured from fundamental concepts to versatile and powerful tools in a large variety of research branches, such as gravitational-wave detection, atomic clocks, plasmonic sensing, and magnetometry. At the same time, two-photon interferometry, which underpins the possibility of entanglement to probe optical materials with unprecedented levels of precision and accuracy, holds the promise to stand at the heart of innovative functional quantum sensing systems. We report a novel quantum-based method for measuring the frequency dependence of the velocity in a transparent medium, i.e, the chro…
Higher-order dispersion parameters management in highly nonlinear photonic crystal fibers for far-detuned frequency conversion
International audience; In this communication we present results dealing with the precise management of dispersion coefficients into two highly nonlinear fiber structures (a tapered PCF and an all-solid fiber) for far-detuned frequency conversion towards 2µm.
