optical waveguide structure which provides a classic analog of coherent tunneling by …

We report on a direct visualization of coherent destruction of tunneling (CDT) of light waves
in a double well system which provides an optical analog of quantum CDT as originally …

An exactly-solvable model for the decay of a metastable state coupled to a semi-infinite, tight-
binding lattice, showing large deviations from exponential decay in the strong coupling …

Adiabatic passage of light in coupled optical waveguides with a curved axis is theoretically
investigated and shown to bear a close connection with coherent population transfer among …

In atomic physics, adiabatic evolution is often used to achieve a robust and efficient
population transfer. Many adiabatic schemes have also been implemented in optical …

The study of the interactions of chemical systems in a cavity and the ability to control the
reactions inside the cavities become an evolving and hot field of research. Despite that …

Spatial and/or temporal propagation of light waves in periodic optical structures offers a
unique possibility to realize in a purely classical setting the optical analogues of a wide …

It is theoretically shown that the phenomenon of coherent destruction of tunneling in bistable
quantum systems induced by an external driving field can be realized in a periodically …

We employ the inhomogeneous Helmholtz equation to explore the influence of the fractional
degeneracy and the pump distribution on the resonant lasing mode. Theoretical analyses …
