Optical source of individual pairs of color-conjugated photons

We demonstrate that Kerr nonlinearity in optical circuits can lead to both resonant four-wave mixing and photon blockade, which can be used for high-yield generation of high-fidelity individual photon pairs with conjugated frequencies. We propose an optical circuit, which, in the optimal pulsed-drive regime, would produce photon pairs at the rate up to $10^5s^{-1}$ (0.5 pairs per pulse) with $g^{(2)}<10^{-2}$ for one of the conjugated frequencies. We show that such a scheme can be utilised to generate color-entangled photons.

Conductivity activation energy for bilayer hetero-structures at integer filling numbers

We report on study of low-energy excitations in a bilayer hetero-structure 2D electron gas. We split the bilayer Hamiltonian into SU(4)-symmetric part and the anisotropy part and treat the latter as a perturbation. We find that both Goldstone and the charged excitations - skyrmions - are goverened by the non-linear Sigma Model. We calculate the anisotropic energy gap of the skyrmion to have a prominent minimum in the canted antiferromagnetic phase of bilayer. We compare our findings with the results of recent experiments.
