Optical Analogs of Hawking Radiation in the Quantum Regime
Abstract
In the context of this grant, we were able to obtain some interesting results. We demonstrated the first photon pair source based on the spontaneous four wave mixing (SFWM) process in fused silica micro spheres, yielding the shortest SFWM photon-pair bandwidths reported to date (Ortiz Ricardo 2021). We obtained results in terms of engineering entanglement in polarization and frequency based on SFWM in a photonic crystal fiber (de la Torre 2021). We have worked on artificial intelligence, on the one hand having developed a neural network algorithm to identify serious cases of COVID-19 (Quiroz-Jurez 2021), and a separate system to identify particle mixture though machine learning-assisted diffraction (Villegas 2022). We have demonstrated an experimental realization of an optical analogue of Hawking radiation, with an interferometric arrangement which can boost our signal by a factor of 4 (Elizarraras 2022). We have demonstrated an experiment, along with a novel analysis methodology, designed to probe organic compounds through entangled two photon absorption (Corona-Aquino 2022). We have demonstrated a quantum optical coherence microscopy device which embodies a number of key aspects drastically increasing the available signal (Ypiz-Graciano 2022). We have proposed a strategy based on NOON-state interferometry for the certification of entangled two-photon absorption (Martnez-Tapia 2023). We have presented a tutorial paper covering various aspects of fiber-based photon pairs sources, ranging from phase matching properties to photon pair characterization (Garay-Palmett 2023). Finally, we have developed a technique based on genetic algorithms for the retrieval of the internal morphology of samples, e.g. biological in nature (Li-Gomez 2023).
