Optical phase encoding in pulsed approach to reservoir computing

The exploitation of the full structure of multimode light fields enables compelling capabilities in many fields including classical and quantum information science. We exploit data-encoding on the optical phase of the pulses of a femtosecond laser source for a photonic implementation of a reservoir computing protocol. Rather than intensity detection, data-reading is done via homodyne detection that accesses combinations of amplitude and phase of the field. Numerical and experimental results on NARMA tasks and laser dynamic predictions are shown. We discuss perspectives for quantum enhanced protocols.

Spectrally shaped and pulse-by-pulse multiplexed multimode squeezed states of light

Spectral- and time- multiplexing are currently explored to generate large multipartite quantum states of light for quantum technologies. In the continuous variable approach, the deterministic generation of large entangled states demands the generation of a large number of squeezed modes. Here, we demonstrate the simultaneous generation of 21 squeezed spectral modes at 156 MHz. We exploit the full repetition rate and the ultrafast shaping of a femtosecond light source to combine, for the first time, frequency- and time- multiplexing in multimode squeezing. This paves the way to the implementation of multipartite entangled states that are both scalable and fully reconfigurable.

Unveiling the Dynamics of Optical Frequency Combs from Phase-Amplitude Correlations

The noise dynamics of an Optical Frequency Comb (OFC) based on a mode-locked Ti-Sapphire laser is analyzed in terms of noise modes. A spectrally resolved multipixel homodyne detection enables the simultaneous measurement of the amplitude and phase noises of several optical frequency channels, from which the covariance matrices of the amplitude and phase quadratures of the laser field are calculated. The decomposition of these matrices into the four most significant time/frequency modes of the field enables the tracking of the origin of the noises and the correlations between the noise modes. In particular, the correlations between the amplitude and phase noises are measured. These measurements are well reproduced by a model taking into account the correlations between the CEO phase noise and the amplitude noise induced by the group velocity dispersion of the laser cavity.
