Cross-polarized photon-pair generation and bi-chromatically pumped optical parametric oscillation on a chip
Prof Morandotti’s group demonstrated the possibility of harnessing polarization for communication and quantum optics with integrated chips. Experimental set-up of the hybrid self-locked and external pumping scheme. The arrow on top of the amplifier represents the propagation direction of the light inside the cavity. The ...

Collapse Arrest in Instantaneous Kerr Media via Parametric Interactions
Prof. Morandotti and his collaborators demonstrated the possibility to manage the collapse of a two dimensional, multicolor beam in an instantaneous Kerr medium. Figure.: (a) Total photon flux Q=QP1 + QP2 + QS1 + QS2, (b) cross photon flux J = QP1 − QP2 + ...
