Research in Prof. M. Vasilyev’s group
Our group works on nonlinear and quantum optics, optical communication systems and devices, and nanophotonics.
- Phase-sensitive fiber amplifiers
- All-optical signal processing (under construction)
- All-optical networking
- Symmetric dispersion-managed fiber (DMF)
Current and Past Research Projects in Quantum Optics
Interests: manipulation of quantum properties of light (quantum information processing); generation, characterization, and application of non-classical states of light (e.g. squeezed, twin-beam, or entangled states).
Noiseless optical amplification of images
Long-distance quantum communications using photonic qudits (under construction)
Quantum noise of optical solitons
Current and Past Research Projects in Nanophotonics
Interests: nonlinear-optical effects, information processing in micro- and nanoscale structures.
Nano- and micro-scale devices for photonic signal processing
