    Observation of two-photon interference using the zero-phonon-line emission of a single molecule
    (Institute of Physics (IOP) Publishing, 2006) Ehrl, M.; Hellerer, Th.; Brauchle, C.; Zumbusch, A.; Department of Physics; Department of Physics; Müstecaplıoğlu, Özgür Esat; Kiraz, Alper; Faculty Member; Faculty Member; College of Sciences; 1674; 22542
    We report the results of coincidence counting experiments at the output of a Michelson interferometer using the zero-phonon-line emission of a single molecule at 1.4 K. Under continuous wave excitation, we observe the absence of coincidence counts as an indication of two-photon interference. This corresponds to the observation of Hong-Ou-Mandel correlations.

    Generalized unitarity relation for linear scattering systems in one dimension
    (Springer, 2019) Department of Physics; Department of Mathematics; Department of Physics; Department of Mathematics; Mostafazadeh, Ali; Faculty Member; College of Sciences; 4231
    We derive a generalized unitarity relation for an arbitrary linear scattering system that may violate unitarity, time-reversal invariance, PT - symmetry, and transmission reciprocity.

    Self-dual spectral singularities and coherent perfect absorbing lasers without PT-symmetry
    (Institute of Physics (IOP) Publishing, 2012) Department of Mathematics; Department of Mathematics; Mostafazadeh, Ali; Faculty Member; College of Sciences; 4231
    A PT-symmetric optically active medium that lases at the threshold gain also acts as a complete perfect absorber at the laser wavelength. This is because spectral singularities of PT-symmetric complex potentials are always accompanied by their time-reversal dual. We investigate the significance of PT-symmetry for the appearance of these self-dual spectral singularities. In particular, using a realistic optical system we show that self-dual spectral singularities can emerge also for non-PT-symmetric configurations. This signifies the existence of non-PT-symmetric coherent perfect absorbing lasers.

    Propagation of short pulses through a Bose-Einstein condensate
    (Institute of Physics (IOP) Publishing, 2006) Tarhan, Devrim; Sefi, Seckin; Department of Physics; Department of Physics; Müstecaplıoğlu, Özgür Esat; Faculty Member; College of Sciences; 1674
    We study propagation of short laser pulses in a Bose-Einstein condensate taking into account dispersive effects under the conditions for electromagnetically induced transparency. We calculate dispersion coefficients using typical experimental parameters of slow-light schemes in condensates. By numerically propagating the laser pulse, and referring to theoretical estimations, we determine the conditions for which dispersion starts to introduce distortions on the pulse shape.

    Quantum canonical transformations in star-product formalism
    (Institute of Physics (IOP) Publishing, 2013) Hakioğlu, Tuğrul; Teğmen, Adnan; Department of Physics; Department of Physics; Dereli, Tekin; Faculty Member; College of Sciences; 201358
    We study construction of the star-product version of three basic quantum canonical transformations which are known as the generators of the full canonical algebra. By considering the fact that star-product of c-number phase-space functions is in complete isomorphism to Hilbert-space operator algebra, it is shown that while the constructions of gauge and point transformations are immediate, generator of the interchanging transformation deforms this isomorphism. As an alternative approach, we study all of them within the deformed form. How to transform any c-number function under linear-nonlinear transformations and the intertwining method are shown within this argument as the complementary subjects of the text.

    Low-frequency scattering defined by the Helmholtz equation in one dimension
    (Institute of Physics (IOP) Publishing, 2021) Loran, Farhang; Department of Mathematics; Department of Physics; Department of Mathematics; Department of Physics; Mostafazadeh, Ali; Faculty Member; College of Sciences; 4231
    The Helmholtz equation in one dimension, which describes the propagation of electromagnetic waves in effectively one-dimensional systems, is equivalent to the time-independent Schrodinger equation. The fact that the potential term entering the latter is energy-dependent obstructs the application of the results on low-energy quantum scattering in the study of the low-frequency waves satisfying the Helmholtz equation. We use a recently developed dynamical formulation of stationary scattering to offer a comprehensive treatment of the low-frequency scattering of these waves for a general finite-range scatterer. In particular, we give explicit formulas for the coefficients of the low-frequency series expansion of the transfer matrix of the system which in turn allow for determining the low-frequency expansions of its reflection, transmission, and absorption coefficients. Our general results reveal a number of interesting physical aspects of low-frequency scattering particularly in relation to permittivity profiles having balanced gain and loss.
