Quantum remote sensing

We present an advanced quantum ghost imaging (QGI) setup that enables low-noise, three-dimensional imaging and ranging of distant objects.

Short-term stability of a microcell optical reference based on the Rb atom two-photon transition at 778 nm

We report on the development and short-term stability characterization of an optical frequency reference based on the spectroscopy of the rubidium two-photon transition at 778 nm in a microfabricated vapor cell. When compared against a 778 nm reference signal extracted from a frequency-doubled cavity-stabilized telecom laser, the short-term stability of the microcell frequency standard is  until 200 s, in good agreement with a phase noise level of  at 1 Hz offset frequency.
