A radial carpet (RC) optical beam is a type of structured light beam that is classified as a subfamily of combined half-integer Bessel-like beams. Coherent detection of such structured modes can be difficult given their structural complexity and the deterioration of the quality of modes during propagation in turbulent environments. In this paper, we first study the detection of RC modes by using fork-shaped diffraction gratings and then propose an incoherent detection approach to classify 16 classes of RC modes based on training a convolutional neural network model using DenseNet-201 architecture. The dataset comprises recorded images of RC modes after a 120 cm propagation length in a turbulent underwater environment. As the evaluations indicate, the classifier has an accuracy of 98% in identifying RC modes measured in moderate turbulence with a strength level of C n 2 ∼10 −12 m −2/3 . This method eliminates the difficulties caused by the use of multiple optical elements in coherent detection techniques such as diffraction gratings. Besides simplifying the optical system settings, it also reduces the volume and cost of implementation, especially in optical communication applications.

The semiclassical expressions for susceptibilities are inadequate when quantum aspects of light become prominent. A more appropriate formulation of the electrical susceptibility theory requires the quantization of the electromagnetic field. We show here a way to do this up to the second order, within a low-dimensional system. The generalized expressions reveal that susceptibilities depend on the quantum state of light. As experimentally verifiable consequences of this, we predict new phenomena such as photon number-dependent refractive index, even in the linear regime, and non-quadratic second harmonic generation, which should be appreciable when very low-intensity coherent light is involved. We also deduce when the semiclassical expressions, which happen to be particular cases of those derived here, can be used confidently.

We present numerical characterizations of the wavefront sensing performance for few-mode photonic lantern wavefront sensors (PLWFSs). These characterizations include calculations of throughput, control space, sensor linearity, and an estimate of maximum linear reconstruction range for standard and hybrid lanterns with 3 to 19 ports, at a wavelength of 1550 nm. We additionally consider the impact of beam-shaping optics and a charge-1 vortex mask, placed in the pupil plane. The former is motivated by the application of PLs to high-resolution spectroscopy, which could enable efficient injection into the spectrometer along with simultaneous focal-plane wavefront sensing; similarly, the latter is motivated by the application of PLs to vortex fiber nulling (VFN), which can simultaneously enable wavefront sensing and the nulling of on-axis starlight. Overall, we find that the PLWFS setups tested in this work exhibit good linearity out to ~0.25-0.5 radians of RMS wavefront error (WFE). Meanwhile, we estimate the maximum amount of WFE that can be handled by these sensors, before the sensor response becomes degenerate, to be around ~1-2 radians RMS. In the future, we expect these limits can be pushed further by increasing the number of degrees of freedom, either by adopting higher-mode-count lanterns, dispersing lantern outputs, or separating polarizations. Lastly, we consider optimization strategies for the design of the PLWFS, which involve both modification of the lantern itself and the use of pre- and post-lantern optics like phase masks and interferometric beam recombiners.
