We show that the correlation dynamics in coherently excited doubly excited resonances of helium can be followed in real time by two-photon interferometry. This approach promises to map the evolution of the two-electron wave packet onto experimentally easily accessible noncoincident single-electron spectra. We analyze the interferometric signal in terms of a semianalytical model which is validated by a numerical solution of the time-dependent two-electron Schrödinger equation in its full dimensionality.

Hanbury-Brown and Twiss (HBT) effect is the foundation for stellar intensity interferometry. However, it is a phase insensitive two-photon interference effect. Here we extend the HBT interferometer by mixing intensity-matched reference fields with the input fields before intensity correlation measurement.

Evaluating the quantum optical properties of solid-state single-photon emitters is a time-consuming task that typically requires interferometric photon correlation experiments. Photon correlation Fourier spectroscopy (PCFS) is one such technique that measures time-resolved single-emitter line shapes and offers additional spectral information over Hong-Ou-Mandel two-photon interference but requires long experimental acquisition times. Here, we demonstrate a neural ordinary differential equation model, g2NODE, that can forecast a complete and noise-free interferometry experiment from a small subset of noisy correlation functions.

Due to the serious biological toxicity and environmental refractory of heavy metal ions, the detection of heavy metal ions in liquids has attracted great attention. A novel fiber optic surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensor is presented for detecting lead ions (Pb) with temperature compensation. The sensitivity of SPR channel to Pb is up to -41.

Article Synopsis
- Large field-of-view (FOV) microscopic imaging is crucial in biomedicine, particularly in label-free techniques like lensless digital holographic microscopy (LDHM), which offers high resolution but faces challenges in accurate quantitative phase imaging (QPI).
- The research uses two-photon polymerization (TPP) to create widefield phase test targets, enabling the assessment of LDHM's imaging errors across the entire large FOV under various conditions.
- Results showed that there are minimal phase value differences (under 12%) near the detector's edges, highlighting the need for new design approaches in photonic manufacturing to improve large-area lensless imaging accuracy.

The laser system is the most complex component of a light-pulse atom interferometer (LPAI), controlling frequencies and intensities of multiple laser beams to configure quantum gravity and inertial sensors. Its main functions include cold-atom generation, state preparation, state-selective detection, and generating a coherent two-photon process for the light-pulse sequence. To achieve substantial miniaturization and ruggedization, we integrate key laser system functions onto a photonic integrated circuit.
