Author:Zhang, Y; Roux, FS; McLaren, M; Forbes, ADate:Aug 2014Considering the quantum state produced in type I spontaneous parametric down-conversion with collinear, degenerate signal and idler beams, and a Gaussian pump, we show that the azimuthal Schmidt number in the Laguerre-Gaussian (LG) basis ...Read more
Author:Zhang, Y; McLaren, M; Roux, FS; Forbes, ADate:Aug 2014We present a simple way of simulating Spontaneous parametric down-conversion (SPDC) by modulating a classical laser beam with two spatial light modulators (SLM) through a back projection setup. This system has the advantage of having very ...Read more
Author:Zhang, Y; Yangz, HL; Lunga, D; Prasad, S; Crawford, MDate:Jun 2014Manifold learning techniques have demonstrated various levels of success in their ability to represent spectral signature characteristics in hyperspectral imagery. Such images consists of spectral features with very subtle differences and at ...Read more
