Detecting an eavesdropper in a quantum channel is essential in a quantum key distribution system. Sender Alice and receiver Bob (or all other involved personalities and end points) can rely on very high standards of security proofs to make a quantum channel nearly entirely secure. However, if an…

A very warm welcome to Cedric Traub, Markus Schmidt and Lisa Fischer who will do their Master and Bacherlor research thesis with us!

Happy to announce that the Stiller Lab got another Postdeadline Paper accepted, this time at the Frontiers in Optics 2023 Conference by Optica next week! Xinglin Zeng will present experiments on frequency conversion of orbital angular momentum information using structured acoustic waves!…

Postdeadline Paper at the PSC 2023 Conference (Photonics in Switching and Computing): our work on an optoacoustic perceptron for recurrent neural networks with Steven Becker and Dirk Englund from MIT has been accepted for the postdeadline session!

Congratulations Steven!

Negativer Druck ist ein seltenes und schwer nachzuweisendes Phänomen in der Physik. Mithilfe von flüssigkeitsgefüllten optischen Fasern und Schallwellen haben Forscher*innen des Max-Planck-Instituts für die Physik des Lichts (MPL) in Erlangen jetzt eine neue Methode entdeckt, um negativen Druck zu…

We report on the first optoacoustic recurrent operator for the application in optical neural networks:

An optoacoustic field-programmable perceptron for recurrent neural networks

Authors: Steven Becker, Dirk Englund and Birgit Stiller

Abstract:
A critical feature in signal processing is the…
