We demonstrated a time-of-flight (TOF) ranging system employing laser pulses at 1550 nm with multiple repetition rates to decrease the range ambiguity, which was usually found in high-repetition TOF systems. The time-correlated single-photon counting technique with an InGaAs/InP avalanche photodiode based single-photon detector, was applied to record different arrival time of the scattered return photons from the non-cooperative target at different repetition rates to determine the measured distance, providing an effective and convenient method to increase the absolute range capacity of the whole system. We attained hundreds of meters range with millimeter accuracy by using laser pulses of approximately 10-MHz repetition rates.

False Memories of Familiar Faces.

Exp Psychol

January 2025

Department of Psychology, Louisiana State University, Baton Rouge, LA, USA.

Article Synopsis
  • Prior familiarity with faces, especially when they are known US celebrities, enhances recognition and source memory compared to unfamiliar European celebrities.
  • In two experiments, both familiar and unfamiliar faces showed improved recognition rates with repetition during learning, but participants were more accurate with familiar faces.
  • Experiment 2 revealed that while familiar faces were recognized more frequently, they were also more prone to being incorrectly identified as previously seen when paired with new backgrounds, suggesting complexities in face memory recall.

High-dimensional photon states (qudits) are pivotal to enhance the information capacity, noise robustness, and data rates of quantum communications. Time-bin entangled qudits are promising candidates for implementing high-dimensional quantum communications over optical fiber networks with processing rates approaching those of classical telecommunications. However, their use is hindered by phase instability, timing inaccuracy, and low scalability of interferometric schemes needed for time-bin processing.

Continuous-wave mode-locking at multi-GHz repetition rates is achieved in an ultrashort laser cavity at critical pulse energies 100 times lower than predicted by conventional theory. The authors reveal that dynamic gain depletion and recovery between consecutive round-trips is the key factor behind a low-pulse-energy transition from Q-switched mode-locking (QSML) to continuous-wave mode-locking (CWML). As well as providing new insight into gain dynamics, the results suggest a practical route to low-threshold lasing at very high-repetition rates.
