Interests: • Nonclassical and Non-Gaussian State Engineering: Generation and characterization of photon-added, photon-subtracted, and multiphoton non-Gaussian states using partially coherent pump fields; extending these protocols toward integrated photonic platforms and roomtemperature quantum optical devices. • Entangled Photon Sources and Quantum Communication: SPDC-based polarization and spatial-mode entanglement with controlled coherence; coherence-induced entanglement recovery over lossy channels; device-independent QKD and long-distance quantum communication using 2 partially coherent photonic qubits. • Continuous-Variable Quantum Optics: Squeezed state generation and characterization via homodyne detection; Gaussian and non-Gaussian resource states for continuous-variable quantum computing, quantum error correction, and photonic quantum reservoir computing. • Quantum Sensing and Metrology: Entanglement- and squeezing-enhanced sensing beyond the standard quantum limit; coherence-engineered probes for precision interferometry, quantum LIDAR, and quantum gyroscopy. • Quantum and Ghost Imaging: Nonlocal double-slit and coherence-assisted imaging with partially coherent entangled qubits; EMCCD-based biphoton imaging; extending ghost imaging schemes toward quantum-enhanced resolution and low-light biological imaging. • Integrated Quantum Photonics: On-chip nonclassical light generation using silicon nitride and thin-film lithium niobate platforms; programmable photonic quantum circuits for boson sampling, Gaussian boson sampling, and scalable photon-based quantum information processing.
