Optical-fiber source of polarization-entangled photon pairs in the 1550nm telecom band
We present a fiber based source of polarization-entangled photon pairs that
is well suited for quantum communication applications in the 1550nm band of
standard fiber-optic telecommunications. Polarization entanglement is created
by pumping a nonlinear-fiber Sagnac interferometer with two time-delayed
orthogonally-polarized pump pulses and subsequently removing the time
distinguishability by passing the parametrically scattered signal-idler photon
pairs through a piece of birefringent fiber. Coincidence detection of the
signal-idler photons yields biphoton interference with visibility greater than
90%, while no interference is observed in direct detection of either the signal
or the idler photons. All four Bell states can be prepared with our setup and
we demonstrate violations of CHSH form of Bell's inequalities by up to 10
standard deviations of measurement uncertainty.Comment: 12 pages, 4 figures, to be submitted to Phys. Rev. Lett. See also

Toward an Understanding of the Tidal Fluid Mechanics Associated with the Genesis Flood
Tidal fluid mechanics associated with a global ocean are investigated using numerical analysis and computer simulation. Tidal waves, with their shallow water wave characteristics, are shown to be perfect candidates for the role of sediment transport and deposition associated with the buildup of thick sequences of sedimentary strata. The global ocean in the tidal context is shown to be near resonance which, if present, would augment the load-carrying ability of the tidal waves. Pertinent variables of fluid friction, ocean depth, and bottom relief are studied to ascertain their role in the tidal action in a global ocean
Inverse Anticipating Synchronization
We report a new type of chaos synchronization:inverse anticipating
synchronization, where a time delay chaotic system can drive another system in
such a way that the driven system anticipates the driver by synchronizing with
its inverse future state. We extend the concept of inverse anticipating chaos
synchronization to cascaded systems. We propose means for the experimental
observation of inverse anticipating chaos synchronization in external cavity
lasers.Comment: LaTex 6 pages, resubmitted to PR
Parameter Mismatches and Perfect Anticipating Synchronization in bi-directionally coupled external cavity laser diodes
We study perfect chaos synchronization between two bi-directionally coupled
external cavity semiconductor lasers and demonstrate for the first time that
mismatches in laser photon decay rates can explain the experimentally observed
anticipating time in synchronization.Comment: Latex 4 page

Aluminium-oxide wires for superconducting high kinetic inductance circuits
We investigate thin films of conducting aluminium-oxide, also known as
granular aluminium, as a material for superconducting high quality, high
kinetic inductance circuits. The films are deposited by an optimised reactive
DC magnetron sputter process and characterised using microwave measurement
techniques at milli-Kelvin temperatures. We show that, by precise control of
the reactive sputter conditions, a high room temperature sheet resistance and
therefore high kinetic inductance at low temperatures can be obtained. For a
coplanar waveguide resonator with 1.5\,k sheet resistance and a kinetic
inductance fraction close to unity, we measure a quality factor in the order of
700\,000 at 20\,mK. Furthermore, we observe a sheet resistance reduction by
gentle heat treatment in air. This behaviour is exploited to study the kinetic
inductance change using the microwave response of a coplanar wave guide
resonator. We find the correlation between the kinetic inductance and the sheet
resistance to be in good agreement with theoretical expectations.Comment: 16 pages, 7 figure
