However, the quantum behavior including the commutation relations has been relatively less explored.

An important outcome of our work is the proof that the widely assumed quantum commutation relation for the total observable angular momentum of light is fundamentally incorrect. Our work will motivate experiments and lead to new insights on the quantum behavior of the angular momentum of light.","PeriodicalId":501621,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Optical Society of America B","volume":"10 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141866947","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As such, solid-state high-harmonic generation is increasingly used as a probe for femtosecond time-resolved pump-probe experiments. So far, most experimental pump-probe studies have reported photoexcitation-induced amplitude suppression of high-harmonic generation in solid-state media, yet the origins of this phenomenon remain elusive. Through simulations based on the semiconductor Bloch equations, we identify the dephasing of the coherent carrier population as the primary mechanism driving this suppression. Furthermore, we find band gap renormalization to be a source for phase shifts of high harmonics.

The horizontally formed diodes are connected in the SRR radial direction, reducing the overall junction capacitance of the metasurface array compared to its counterparts with vertically formed Schottky junctions. This reduction in the junction capacitance has an essential role in the switching speed of the metasurface between the On and Off states. By carefully varying the externally applied bias voltage to the Schottky diodes, one can manipulate the incident THz signal at the metasurface resonance frequencies by converting its resonance mode by switching states. We use the forenamed platform to design three fundamental THz devices: a modulator, a polarization switch, and a polarizing beam splitter. A reverse bias of <jats:italic>V</jats:italic><jats:sub> <jats:italic>R</jats:italic> </jats:sub>=5V excites two LC resonances at 0.3 THz and 0.89 THz in the modulator, which fade away by switching the gate voltage to <jats:italic>V</jats:italic><jats:sub> <jats:italic>F</jats:italic> </jats:sub>=0.49V, exciting a dipole resonance in the metasurface at 0.75 THz. The numerical results show that this THz modulator enjoys modulation depths of ≥92% at the LC resonances and a phase modulation of ∼1.16rad at 0.86 THz. An identical electric bias change of the Schottky diodes in the polarization switch alters the resonators from anisotropic to isotropic, changing the output wave polarization from circular with nearly 99% of the circular polarization percentage to linear or quasi-linear at four frequencies simultaneously. Additionally, the proposed THz polarization splitter can deflect the cross-polarized transmitted component from the normally outgoing co-polarized one with an angle of 70° at 0.56 THz. The splitting ratio is switched from 1:1 in reverse bias to 14:1 in forward bias by changing the bias to forward bias. We expect that the proposed designs in the THz frequency domain, benefiting from the several hundred GHz switching speed of the Schottky diodes array, will be beneficial in applications such as analysis of the complex organic structures or polarization modulation and polarization-dependent multiplexing/demultiplexing in wireless communication systems.","PeriodicalId":501621,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Optical Society of America B","volume":"26 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141866951","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For a separation of time scales between the drive and intrinsic Rabi oscillations in the former model, the driving results in an effective periodic reversal of time. The corresponding Floquet Hamiltonian is a Wannier–Stark model, which can be analytically solved. Despite the chaotic nature of the driven Lipkin–Meshkov–Glick model, moderate system sizes can display qualitatively different behaviors under varying system parameters. Ergodicity arises in systems that are neither adiabatic nor diabatic, owing to repeated multi-level Landau–Zener transitions. Chaotic behavior, observed in slow driving, manifests as random jumps in the magnetization, suggesting potential utility as a random number generator. Furthermore, we discuss both models in terms of a Floquet Fock state lattice.","PeriodicalId":501621,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Optical Society of America B","volume":"102 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141866952","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

An interesting area of research is the control of such an optical chirality. In this work, we report a study of the controllable optical chirality of vortex beams via photonic jets. Within the framework of the generalized Lorenz–Mie theory (GLMT), we present the analytical expressions for describing the electromagnetic fields of the photonic jets formed on the shadow side of the micro-sized dielectric spheres illuminated by Laguerre–Gaussian (LG) vortex beams. The optical chirality of the vortex beams focused in the near-field area of the photonic jets is numerically simulated. It is revealed that the optical chirality of the vortex beams is drastically enhanced via photonic jets. Moreover, the optical chirality of the vortex beams focused in the near-field area of the photonic jets can be controlled by choosing the radius and refractive index of the dielectric sphere. Such controllable optical chirality is expected to be applicable in chiral manipulation, detection, and recognition.","PeriodicalId":501621,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Optical Society of America B","volume":"46 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141866953","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here, we show that the Jaynes–Cummings model only applies when the cavity does not significantly change the emitter’s decay rate into free-space. Most notably, the predictions made by the Jaynes–Cummings model become increasingly wrong when approaching the ideal emitter-resonator systems with no free-space decay channels. We present a Hamiltonian that provides, within the validity range of the rotating wave approximation, a correct theoretical description that applies to all regimes. As minimizing the coupling to free-space modes is paramount for many cavity-based applications, a correct description of strong light-matter interaction is therefore crucial for developing and optimizing quantum protocols.","PeriodicalId":501621,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Optical Society of America B","volume":"34 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141866957","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
