Precision length metrology is achieved by retracing the peak positions of dual‐microcomb breathing spectra (DBS) with different repetition rates back to the stable comb optical modes, enabling the attainment of nanoscale accuracy across long distance in a single‐shot measurement while consuming fewer computational resources. Minimum Allan deviations of 1.08 nm at a distance of 0.5 m, and 21.8 nm at a distance of 217 m are experimentally demonstrated. The DBS methodology eliminates the need for auxiliary ranging and other complex steps while being CMOS‐compatible and offering the potential for single‐chip integration, will thus emerge as a competitive and novel alternative in the realm of length metrology applications.","PeriodicalId":204,"journal":{"name":"Laser & Photonics Reviews","volume":"14 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":11.0,"publicationDate":"2025-06-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144311557","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the lack of proper design and fabrication strategy causes great difficulties for achromatic chiroptic response with a high g‐factor in the visible region. Here a facile generation of 3D spiral plasmonic micropillars based on laser direct writing with a spiral vector beam is introduced. These plasmonic micropillars exhibit a dissymmetric factor (g‐factor) up to 1.0 at 800 nm, which gives rise to strong chiral plasmon photoluminescence (PL) with an achromatic luminescence dissymmetry (g<jats:sub>lum</jats:sub>) up to 0.4 across the visible region (500–750 nm). Furthermore, cathodoluminescence (CL) characterizations of these spiral micropillars reveal a location‐selective chiral inversion of the CL spectra, which is related to the variation of the superchiral fields within the spiral micropillars. This work not only establishes a facile, efficient and enantioselective paradigm for the optical generation of 3D chiral plasmonic nanostructures but also reveals the crucial role of superchiral field in both the chiral PL and CL, which is significant for the development of superior chiral luminescence devices.","PeriodicalId":204,"journal":{"name":"Laser & Photonics Reviews","volume":"14 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":11.0,"publicationDate":"2025-06-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144311562","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this paper, a framework is proposed for the compatible and complementary implementation of quantum time synchronization and quantum cryptography, by multiplexing the same energy‐time entangled biphotons and quantum channel. A proof‐of‐principle experiment between two independent nodes across a 120 km fiber is demonstrated, which achieves sub‐picosecond synchronization stability based on the quantum two‐way time transfer protocol. Simultaneously, this synchronization provides the required timing for enabling dispersive optics quantum key distribution with an average finite‐size secure key rate of 73.8 bits per second. Furthermore, the performance degradation induced by asymmetric delay attacks in the quantum channel is effectively mitigated by the parallel quantum time synchronization procedure.
