Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of the project is to propose novel methods for optical measurements using optical systems designed on the basis of the time-reversal symmetry, and to experimentally demonstrate the proposed optical measurements for the applications of various ultra-sensitive measurements beyond conventional methods. In particular, we focus on time-reversal optical systems inspired by two-photon interference using time-correlated photon pairs, and demonstrated phase superresolution in two-photon interference and dispersion cancellation in optical coherence tomography with classical light. These applications have been demonstrated using purely quantum light with extremely low intensity. On the other hand, the proposed methods enable us to obtain intense signals from strong classical light with high efficiency, and they are expected to lead to the development of more practical sensitive measurements.
