(English) Entangled photon pairs can enhance optical imaging capabilities. Phase imaging allows detecting fine detail of transparent samples without potentially invasive fluorescent labelling, and here ...
Chisholm, Craig Sterling (Date of defense: 2023-06-19)
(English) The exquisite control available in atomic ultracold quantum gases experiments makes them an ideal candidate for quantum simulation of diverse topics ranging from high energy physics and analogue ...

This thesis focusses on the essential features of Quantum Theory that are systems in an entangled state and Bell nonlocal correlations. Here, we take the angle of a resource theory and are interested ...
Ricci, Francesco, 1987- (Date of defense: 2019-02-22)
Levitodynamics addresses the levitation and manipulation of micro- and nanoresonators with the purpose of studying their dynamics. This emerging field has attracted much attention over the last few years ...
Supic, Ivan (Date of defense: 2018-09-19)
The last two decades have been a very fruitful period for the fundamental research related to quantum information theory. Today we have a fairly good understanding of how intrinsically quantum properties ...

This thesis describes quantum measurements of an ensemble of cold rubidium-87 atoms. We extend the covariance matrix formalism to spin-1 systems, including effects of decoherence, losses due to probing ...
Kutluer, Kutlu (Date of defense: 2017-10-23)
A photonic quantum memory (QM) is a device that has the capability of storing a quantum state of light and retrieving back after a controlled time. It is an important element in quantum information ...

Hybrid diffuse optical devices allows for the non-invasive and continuous monitoring of the cerebral haemodynamics and metabolism. Such devices can be portable and are relatively inexpensive, therefore ...
Guenther, Nils Eric (Date of defense: 2021-09-08)
At sufficiently low temperatures, fluids of bosonic particles may undergo a phase transition, below which a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) forms. The BEC is one of the most fundamental concepts in ...
