Here we present the first quantum homodyne detector on a silicon chip. We demonstrate all of the characteristics required for detection of quantum states: high speed, signal-to-noise ratio, and common-mode rejection ratio.

We demonstrate that generalized Weyl points can exist in a parameter space and we report the first observation of such nodal points in one-dimensional photonic crystals in the optical range. The reflection phase inside the band gap of a truncated photonic crystal exhibits vortexes in the parameter space where the Weyl points are defined and they share the same topological charges as the Weyl points.

Harmonic sidebands are compared in monolayer vs. bulk WSe2. We find strong Coulomb enhancement of sidebands in monolayer WSe2 when resonant vs. non-resonant 1s-exciton excitations are compared, this is virtually absent in bulk.
