--- _id: '64864' abstract: - lang: eng text: Probing novel properties, arising from twisted interfaces, has traditionally relied on the stacking of exfoliated two-dimensional materials and the spontaneous formation of van der Waals bonds. So far, investigations involving intimate covalent or ionic bonds have not been a focus. Yet, we show here that an established technique, involving thermocompressional wafer bonding, works well for creating twisted non-van der Waals interfaces. We have successfully bonded z-cut lithium niobate single crystals to create ferroelectric oxide interfaces with strong polar discontinuities and have mapped the associated emergent interfacial conductivity. In some instances, a dramatic change in microstructure occurs, involving local dipolar switching. A twist-induced collapse in the capability of the system to effec8tively screen interfacial bound charge is implied. Importantly, this only occurs around specific moiré twist angles with sparse coincident lattices and associated short-range aperiodicity. In quasicrystals, aperiodicity is known to induce pseudo-bandgaps and we suspect a similar phenomenon here. article_number: '1842' article_type: original author: - first_name: Andrew full_name: Rogers, Andrew last_name: Rogers - first_name: Kristina full_name: Holsgrove, Kristina last_name: Holsgrove - first_name: Nils A. full_name: Schäfer, Nils A. last_name: Schäfer - first_name: Boris full_name: Koppitz, Boris last_name: Koppitz - first_name: Conor J. full_name: McCluskey, Conor J. last_name: McCluskey - first_name: Shivani full_name: Yedama, Shivani last_name: Yedama - first_name: Ronan full_name: Lynch, Ronan last_name: Lynch - first_name: Keelan full_name: Sloan, Keelan last_name: Sloan - first_name: Barry full_name: Porter, Barry last_name: Porter - first_name: Adam full_name: Sykes, Adam last_name: Sykes - first_name: Alex full_name: Catalan Daniels, Alex last_name: Catalan Daniels - first_name: Romualdo S. full_name: Silva, Romualdo S. last_name: Silva - first_name: Flavio Y. full_name: Bruno, Flavio Y. last_name: Bruno - first_name: Sam D. full_name: Seddon, Sam D. last_name: Seddon - first_name: Haidong full_name: Lu, Haidong last_name: Lu - first_name: Michael full_name: Rüsing, Michael id: '22501' last_name: Rüsing orcid: 0000-0003-4682-4577 - first_name: Christa full_name: Fink, Christa last_name: Fink - first_name: Philipp full_name: Fahler-Muenzer, Philipp last_name: Fahler-Muenzer - first_name: Sarah full_name: Fearn, Sarah last_name: Fearn - first_name: Sandrine E.

Quantum mechanics, however, imposes fundamental limits on the simultaneous determination of these quantities. In this work, we derive and experimentally verify the quantum uncertainty bounds governing joint time–frequency measurements. We show that when detection is restricted to finite time windows, the problem is naturally described by a quantum rotor, rendering the commonly used Heisenberg uncertainty relation inapplicable. We further propose an optimal detection scheme that saturates these fundamental limits. By sampling the\r\n \ Q\r\n -function, we demonstrate the reconstruction of the Wigner function beyond the harmonic oscillator. Using an experimental implementation based on a quantum pulse gate, we confirm that the proposed scheme approaches the ultimate quantum limit for simultaneous time–frequency measurements.

In this work, we investigate the impact of the optical pulse shape and duration on the accuracy of this method. We find that Gaussian temporal pulse shapes yield cleaner arrival-time histograms and, thus, more accurate PNR, compared to bandpass-filtered pulses of equal bandwidth. For low system jitter and an optical pulse duration comparable to the other jitter contributions, photon numbers can be discriminated in our system with a commercial SNSPD. At 60 ps optical pulse duration, photon-number discrimination is significantly reduced. Furthermore, we highlight the importance of using the correct arrival-time histogram model when analyzing photon-number assignment. Using exponentially modified Gaussian distributions, instead of the commonly used Gaussian distributions, we can more accurately determine photon-number misidentification probabilities. Finally, we reconstruct the positive operator-valued measures of the detector, revealing sharp features that indicate the intrinsic PNR capabilities. article_number: '016102' author: - first_name: Timon full_name: Schapeler, Timon id: '55629' last_name: Schapeler orcid: 0000-0001-7652-1716 - first_name: Isabell full_name: Mischke, Isabell last_name: Mischke - first_name: Fabian full_name: Schlue, Fabian id: '63579' last_name: Schlue - first_name: Michael full_name: Stefszky, Michael id: '42777' last_name: Stefszky - first_name: Benjamin full_name: Brecht, Benjamin id: '27150' last_name: Brecht orcid: '0000-0003-4140-0556 ' - first_name: Christine full_name: Silberhorn, Christine id: '26263' last_name: Silberhorn - first_name: Tim full_name: Bartley, Tim id: '49683' last_name: Bartley citation: ama: Schapeler T, Mischke I, Schlue F, et al.

However, their emission wavelength depends on their size and immediate surroundings in the solid-state environment. By applying a serrodyne electro-optic phase modulation, we achieve a spectral shift up to 0.01 nm (3.5 GHz) while preserving the purity and indistinguishability of the photons. This method provides an efficient and scalable approach for tuning the emission wavelength of QDs without relying on nonlinear frequency mixing or probabilistic processes. Our results show that the electro-optic phase modulation enables stable and tunable spectral shifts, making it suitable for applications such as quantum communication, quantum key distribution, and primarily integrating remote quantum dot sources into large-scale quantum networks. article_type: original author: - first_name: Sanjay full_name: Kapoor, Sanjay last_name: Kapoor - first_name: Aleksander full_name: Rodek, Aleksander last_name: Rodek - first_name: Michał full_name: Mikołajczyk, Michał last_name: Mikołajczyk - first_name: Jerzy full_name: Szuniewicz, Jerzy last_name: Szuniewicz - first_name: Filip Maksymilian full_name: Sośnicki, Filip Maksymilian id: '106751' last_name: Sośnicki orcid: 0000-0002-2465-4645 - first_name: Tomasz full_name: Kazimierczuk, Tomasz last_name: Kazimierczuk - first_name: Piotr full_name: Kossacki, Piotr last_name: Kossacki - first_name: Michał full_name: Karpiński, Michał last_name: Karpiński citation: ama: Kapoor S, Rodek A, Mikołajczyk M, et al.

A time lens is characterized by its chirp rate, which determines the focusing strength of the time lens, and accurate knowledge of this chirp is critical for precise dispersion compensation and minimizing aberrations. Here, we introduce a tunable time aperture model for sinusoidal time lenses that provides a more accurate estimate of the effective chirp rate without modifying the device. We derive a closed-form expression for the maximum phase error and show how it depends on the time aperture. We experimentally demonstrate a 1.6-fold improvement in spectral bandwidth compression of Gaussian pulses compared to the conventional approach. Our framework offers a practical tool for designing efficient temporal optical systems, benefiting applications in both classical and quantum optics where accurate spectro-temporal shaping is essential. article_number: '096111' article_type: original author: - first_name: Sanjay full_name: Kapoor, Sanjay last_name: Kapoor - first_name: Filip Maksymilian full_name: Sośnicki, Filip Maksymilian id: '106751' last_name: Sośnicki orcid: 0000-0002-2465-4645 - first_name: Michał full_name: Karpiński, Michał last_name: Karpiński citation: ama: Kapoor S, Sośnicki FM, Karpiński M.

A simple fabrication method is an important requirement for such sources. Here, we present a single photon source based on diced ridge waveguides in titanium indiffused LiNbO3. These waveguides can be easily fabricated by combining planar titanium in-diffusion without lithographic patterning and easy-to-handle precision dicing. Such devices have the potential to generate high single photon rates because ridge structures are typically less prone to the photorefractive effect. We achieve waveguide propagation losses <0.4dBcm and a SHG conversion efficiency of about 81%Wcm2. Harnessing a type-0 SPDC process to generate 1550 nm photons, we obtain a SPDC brightness of 3⋅1051s⋅mW⋅nm, with a heralding efficiency of ηh=45% (ηh,wg=77.5% for the waveguide itself excluded setup losses) and a heralded second-order correlation function of gh2(0)<0.003 at low pump powers. article_number: '593' article_type: original author: - first_name: Christian full_name: Kießler, Christian id: '44252' last_name: Kießler - first_name: Michelle full_name: Kirsch, Michelle id: '69553' last_name: Kirsch - first_name: Sebastian full_name: Lengeling, Sebastian id: '44373' last_name: Lengeling - first_name: Harald full_name: Herrmann, Harald id: '216' last_name: Herrmann - first_name: Christine full_name: Silberhorn, Christine id: '26263' last_name: Silberhorn citation: ama: Kießler C, Kirsch M, Lengeling S, Herrmann H, Silberhorn C.

Despite lithium niobate's wide applicability as a nonlinear optical material, the impact of mechanical stress on its nonlinear optical properties is not well characterized. In this work, we systematically study both experimentally and theoretically, the nonlinear optical responses of thin film lithium niobate (TFLN) single crystals. Compressive and tensile stress is applied in our experiment using a piezodriven strain cell. We then record the second-harmonic-generated (SHG) response in back-reflection geometry, and compare these results to theoretical modeling using density functional theory (DFT). Both methods consistently reveal that uniaxial stress induces changes of the nonlinear optical susceptibility of certain tensor elements on the order of up to 1 pm/(V GPa). The exact value depends on the tensor element that is addressed in our SHG analysis, on the crystal orientation, and also whether using compressive or tensile stresses. Furthermore, a lowering of the crystal symmetry when applying stress along the x or y crystallographic axes is observed by the appearance of new nonlinear optical tensor elements within the strained crystals. article_number: '064109' author: - first_name: Mike N. full_name: Pionteck, Mike N. last_name: Pionteck - first_name: Matthias full_name: Roeper, Matthias last_name: Roeper - first_name: Boris full_name: Koppitz, Boris last_name: Koppitz - first_name: Samuel D. full_name: Seddon, Samuel D. last_name: Seddon - first_name: Michael full_name: Rüsing, Michael id: '22501' last_name: Rüsing orcid: 0000-0003-4682-4577 - first_name: Laura full_name: Padberg, Laura id: '40300' last_name: Padberg - first_name: Christof full_name: Eigner, Christof id: '13244' last_name: Eigner orcid: https://orcid.org/0000-0002-5693-3083 - first_name: Christine full_name: Silberhorn, Christine id: '26263' last_name: Silberhorn - first_name: Simone full_name: Sanna, Simone last_name: Sanna - first_name: Lukas M. full_name: Eng, Lukas M. last_name: Eng citation: ama: Pionteck MN, Roeper M, Koppitz B, et al.

Performing this task with low latency requires combining single-photon-level detectors with both electronic logic processing and optical modulation in close proximity. Here, we demonstrate low-latency feedforward using a quasi-photon-number-resolved measurement on a quantum light source. Specifically, we use a multipixel superconducting nanowire single-photon detector, amplifier, logic, and an integrated electro-optic modulator in situ below 4 K. We modulate the signal mode of a spontaneous parametric down-conversion source, conditional on a photon-number measurement of the idler mode, with a total latency of (23±3)ns. Furthermore, we investigate the resulting change in the photon statistics. This represents an important benchmark for the fastest quantum photonic feedforward experiments comprising measurement, amplification, logic, and modulation. This has direct applications in quantum computing, communication, and simulation protocols. article_number: '720' author: - first_name: Frederik full_name: Thiele, Frederik id: '50819' last_name: Thiele orcid: 0000-0003-0663-5587 - first_name: Niklas full_name: Lamberty, Niklas id: '75307' last_name: Lamberty - first_name: Thomas full_name: Hummel, Thomas id: '83846' last_name: Hummel orcid: 0000-0001-8627-2119 - first_name: Nina Amelie full_name: Lange, Nina Amelie id: '56843' last_name: Lange orcid: 0000-0001-6624-7098 - first_name: Lorenzo Manuel full_name: Procopio Peña, Lorenzo Manuel id: '105816' last_name: Procopio Peña - first_name: Aishi full_name: Barua, Aishi id: '104502' last_name: Barua - first_name: Sebastian full_name: Lengeling, Sebastian id: '44373' last_name: Lengeling - first_name: Viktor full_name: Quiring, Viktor last_name: Quiring - first_name: Christof full_name: Eigner, Christof id: '13244' last_name: Eigner orcid: https://orcid.org/0000-0002-5693-3083 - first_name: Christine full_name: Silberhorn, Christine id: '26263' last_name: Silberhorn - first_name: Tim full_name: Bartley, Tim id: '49683' last_name: Bartley citation: ama: Thiele F, Lamberty N, Hummel T, et al.

From this, we formulate a quantitative physical model of the multi-photon detector response that combines the local detection mechanism and local fluctuations (hotspot formation and intrinsic jitter) with the thermoelectric dynamics of resistive domains. Our model provides an excellent description of the arrival-time histogram of a commercial SNSPD across several orders of magnitude, both in arrival-time probability and across mean photon number. This is achieved with just three fitting parameters: the scaling of the mean arrival time of voltage response pulses, as well as the Gaussian and exponential jitter components. Our findings have important implications for photon-number-resolving detector design, as well as applications requiring low jitter, such as light detection and ranging (LIDAR).' article_number: '086113' article_type: original author: - first_name: Mariia full_name: Sidorova, Mariia last_name: Sidorova - first_name: Timon full_name: Schapeler, Timon id: '55629' last_name: Schapeler orcid: 0000-0001-7652-1716 - first_name: Alexej D. full_name: Semenov, Alexej D. last_name: Semenov - first_name: Fabian full_name: Schlue, Fabian id: '63579' last_name: Schlue - first_name: Michael full_name: Stefszky, Michael id: '42777' last_name: Stefszky - first_name: Benjamin full_name: Brecht, Benjamin id: '27150' last_name: Brecht orcid: '0000-0003-4140-0556 ' - first_name: Christine full_name: Silberhorn, Christine id: '26263' last_name: Silberhorn - first_name: Tim full_name: Bartley, Tim id: '49683' last_name: Bartley citation: ama: Sidorova M, Schapeler T, Semenov AD, et al.

DWs show very different properties as compared to their hosting bulk crystal, in particular with respect to the high local electrical conductivity. The objective of this work is to demonstrate DW conductivity up to temperatures as high as 400 °C which extends previous studies significantly. Experimental investigation of the DW conductivity of charged, inclined DWs is performed using 5 mol % MgO-doped lithium niobate single crystals. Current–voltage ( ) curves are determined by DC electrometer measurements and impedance spectroscopy and found to be identical. Moreover, impedance spectroscopy enables to recognize artifacts such as damaged electrodes. Temperature dependent measurements over repeated heating cycles reveal two distinct thermal activation energies for a given DW, with the higher of the activation energies only measured at higher temperatures. Depending on the specific sample, the higher activation energy is found above 160 °C to 230 °C. This suggests, in turn, that more than one type of defect/polaron is involved, and that the dominant transport mechanism changes with increasing temperature. First principles atomistic modeling suggests that the conductivity of inclined domain walls cannot be solely explained by the formation of a 2D carrier gas and must be supported by hopping processes. This holds true even at temperatures as high as 400 °C. Our investigations underline the potential to extend DW current based nanoelectronic and sensor applications even into the so-far unexplored temperature range up to 400 °C. article_number: '116949' article_type: original author: - first_name: Hendrik full_name: Wulfmeier, Hendrik last_name: Wulfmeier - first_name: Uliana full_name: Yakhnevych, Uliana last_name: Yakhnevych - first_name: Cornelius full_name: Boekhoff, Cornelius last_name: Boekhoff - first_name: Allan full_name: Diima, Allan last_name: Diima - first_name: Marlo full_name: Kunzner, Marlo last_name: Kunzner - first_name: Leonard M. full_name: Verhoff, Leonard M. last_name: Verhoff - first_name: Jonas full_name: Paul, Jonas last_name: Paul - first_name: Julius full_name: Ratzenberger, Julius last_name: Ratzenberger - first_name: Elke full_name: Beyreuther, Elke last_name: Beyreuther - first_name: Joshua full_name: Gössel, Joshua last_name: Gössel - first_name: Iuliia full_name: Kiseleva, Iuliia last_name: Kiseleva - first_name: Michael full_name: Rüsing, Michael id: '22501' last_name: Rüsing orcid: 0000-0003-4682-4577 - first_name: Simone full_name: Sanna, Simone last_name: Sanna - first_name: Lukas M. full_name: Eng, Lukas M. last_name: Eng - first_name: Holger full_name: Fritze, Holger last_name: Fritze citation: ama: Wulfmeier H, Yakhnevych U, Boekhoff C, et al.

However, the spectral information in CARS is often hampered by the presence of a nonresonant contribution to the scattering process that shifts and distorts the Raman peaks. In this work, we apply a method to obtain nonresonant background-free spectra based on time-delayed, broadband CARS (TD-BCARS) using an intrapulse excitation scheme. In particular, this method can measure the phononic dephasing times across the full phonon spectrum at once. We test the methodology on amorphous SiO2 (glass), which is used to characterize the setup-specific and material-independent response times, and then apply TD-BCARS to the analysis of single crystals of diamond and ferroelectrics of potassium titanyl phosphate (KTP) and potassium titanyl arsenate (KTA). For diamond, we determine a dephasing time of \U0001D70F=7.81 ps for the single \U0001D460⁢\U0001D45D3 peak." article_number: '224106' article_type: original author: - first_name: F. full_name: Hempel, F. last_name: Hempel - first_name: Michael full_name: Rüsing, Michael id: '22501' last_name: Rüsing orcid: 0000-0003-4682-4577 - first_name: F. full_name: Vernuccio, F. last_name: Vernuccio - first_name: K.

Our theoretical approach is based on the formalism of Gaussian states and the Langevin equation, which is elaborated for weak parametric down-conversion and photon-number-unresolved click detection. Using the example of frequency-degenerate type-II SPDC generated under the pump-idler group-velocity-matching condition, we show how the joint-spectral intensity, mode structure, normalized second-order correlation function, and Hong-Ou-Mandel interference pattern depend on internal losses of the SPDC process. We found that the joint-spectral intensity is almost insensitive to internal losses, while the second-order correlation function shows a strong dependence on them, being different for the signal and idler beams in the presence of internal losses. Based on the sensitivity of the normalized second-order correlation function, we show how its measurement can be used to experimentally determine internal losses. article_number: '033122' author: - first_name: Denis A. full_name: Kopylov, Denis A. last_name: Kopylov - first_name: Michael full_name: Stefszky, Michael id: '42777' last_name: Stefszky - first_name: Torsten full_name: Meier, Torsten id: '344' last_name: Meier orcid: 0000-0001-8864-2072 - first_name: Christine full_name: Silberhorn, Christine id: '26263' last_name: Silberhorn - first_name: Polina R. full_name: Sharapova, Polina R. id: '60286' last_name: Sharapova citation: ama: 'Kopylov DA, Stefszky M, Meier T, Silberhorn C, Sharapova PR.

Despite the effects of pyroelectricity and photorefraction, the spectral properties match our theoretical model.

Thus LiNbO3 is used for various applications such as electro-optic modulation or nonlinear frequency conversion and mixing. But LiNbO3 also exhibits a strong photorefractive effect, which limits the intensity of the optical fields involved. Various approaches to reduce the photorefractive effect have been investigated, such as increasing the temperature, doping the crystal or using different waveguide designs in LiNbO3. Here, we present an analysis of the approach to increase the photorefractive damage threshold by using different waveguide designs. Contrary to previous claims and investigations, our SHG measurements revealed no significant difference in resistance to photorefractive damage when comparing conventional Ti-doped channel waveguides and Ti-doped diced ridge waveguides in LiNbO3. Furthermore, we have investigated the effect of photorefractive cleaning and curing using a light field at 532 nm. Here, we observe a reduction in the photorefractive effect at room temperature during and after SHG measurements, which is an easy alternative to conventional approaches. article_number: '114260' article_type: original author: - first_name: Michelle full_name: Kirsch, Michelle id: '69553' last_name: Kirsch - first_name: Christian full_name: Kießler, Christian id: '44252' last_name: Kießler - first_name: Sebastian full_name: Lengeling, Sebastian id: '44373' last_name: Lengeling - first_name: Michael full_name: Stefszky, Michael id: '42777' last_name: Stefszky - first_name: Christof full_name: Eigner, Christof id: '13244' last_name: Eigner orcid: https://orcid.org/0000-0002-5693-3083 - first_name: Harald full_name: Herrmann, Harald id: '216' last_name: Herrmann - first_name: Christine full_name: Silberhorn, Christine id: '26263' last_name: Silberhorn citation: ama: Kirsch M, Kießler C, Lengeling S, et al.

Uncertainty relations derived from joint properties of the MUBs are generally assumed to be uniform, irrespective of the specific observables chosen within a set. In this work, we demonstrate instead that the uncertainty relations can depend on the choice of observables. Through both experimental observation and numerical methods, we show that selecting different sets of three MUBs in a five-dimensional quantum system results in distinct uncertainty bounds, i.e., in varying degrees of complementarity, in terms of both entropy and variance.' article_number: '033152' article_type: original author: - first_name: Laura Maria full_name: Serino, Laura Maria id: '88242' last_name: Serino - first_name: Giovanni full_name: Chesi, Giovanni last_name: Chesi - first_name: Benjamin full_name: Brecht, Benjamin id: '27150' last_name: Brecht orcid: '0000-0003-4140-0556 ' - first_name: Lorenzo full_name: Maccone, Lorenzo last_name: Maccone - first_name: Chiara full_name: Macchiavello, Chiara last_name: Macchiavello - first_name: Christine full_name: Silberhorn, Christine id: '26263' last_name: Silberhorn citation: ama: 'Serino LM, Chesi G, Brecht B, Maccone L, Macchiavello C, Silberhorn C.
