    Entangled Two-Photon Interference
    (Elsevier Gmbh, 2019) Salmanogli, Ahmad
    This article proposes a theoretical solution to one of the original problems of the double-slit experiment, which expresses that it is impossible to identify the photon's path without disturbing it We contend that using the entangled two-photon (signal and idler photons) and inserting a double-slit into the beam of signal (idler) photon, it is possible to distinguish the path of signal (idler) photon, just by the detection of the idler (signal) photon. Basically, the signal and idler photons are highly correlated to each other due to the momentum conservation. Indeed, the photon-photon correlation originates the nonlocal interference effect, so using this effect, lets us know about which path the photon goes through, with its conjugate photon's position detection rather than its detection.

    Joint Parameter and State Estimation of the Hemodynamic Model by Iterative Extended Kalman Smoother
    (Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2016) Akin, Ata; Aslan, Serdar; Cemgil, Ali Taylan; Aslan, Murat Samil; Toreyin, Behcet Ugur
    The joint estimation of the parameters and the states of the hemodynamic model from the blood oxygen level dependent (BOLD) signal is a challenging problem. In the functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) literature, quite interestingly, many proposed algorithms work only as a filtering method. This makes the estimation of hidden states and parameters less reliable compared with the algorithms that use smoothing. In standard implementations, smoothing is performed only once. However, joint state and parameter estimation can be improved substantially by iterating smoothing schemes such as the extended Kalman smoother (IEKS). In the fMRI literature, extended Kalman filtering is thought to be less accurate than standard particle filtering (PF). We compared EKF with PF and observed that the contrary is true. We improved the EKF performance by adding smoother. By iterative scheme joint hemodynamic and parameter estimation is improved substantially. We compared IEKS performance with the square-root cubature Kalman smoother (SCKS) algorithm. We show that its accuracy for the state and the parameter estimation is better and much faster than iterative SCKS. SCKS was found to be a better estimator than the dynamic expectation maximization (DEM), EKF, local linearization filter (LLF) and PP methods. We show in this paper that IEKS is a better estimator than iterative SCKS under different process and measurement noise conditions. As a result, IEKS seems to be the best method we evaluated in all aspects. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

    Entanglement of Optical and Microcavity Modes by Means of an Optoelectronic System
    (Amer Physical Soc, 2019) Salmanogli, Ahmad; Gokcen, Dincer; Gecim, H. Selcuk
    Entanglement between optical and microwave cavity modes is a critical issue in illumination systems. Optomechanical systems are utilized to introduce coupling between the optical and microwave cavity modes. However, due to some restrictions of the optomechanical system, especially sensitivity to the thermal photon noise at room temperature, an alternative optoelectronic system is designed to address the problem. We study a method by which it may be possible to remove the mechanical part of the previous systems to minimize the thermally generated photons. Unlike optomechanical systems, in our system, the optical mode is directly coupled to the microwave cavity mode through the optoelectronic elements without employing any mechanical parts. The utilized approach leads to generating the entangled modes at room temperature. For this purpose, the dynamics of the motion of the optoelectronic system is theoretically derived using the Heisenberg-Langevin equations from which one can calculate the coupling between optical and microwave cavity modes. The direct coupling between the optical and microwave cavity modes is the most important feature and is achieved through the combination of the photodetector and a Varactor diode. Hence, by controlling the photodetector current, that is, the photocurrent, depending on the optical cavity incident wave and the Varactor diode-biased voltage, the coupling between the optical and microwave cavity modes is established. The voltage across the Varactor diode also depends on the generated photocurrent. Consequently, our results show that the coupled modes are entangled at room temperature without the requirement for any mechanical parts.

    Error Performance of Optical Wireless Communication Systems Exercising Bpsk Subcarrier Intensity Modulation in Non-Kolmogorov Turbulent Atmosphere
    (Elsevier Science Bv, 2019) Baykal, Yahya; Gokce, Muhsin Caner; Ata, Yalcin
    Subcarrier intensity modulation (SIM) scheme is preferred due to efficient bandwidth usage superiority over other modulation techniques such as on-off keying (OOK), pulse position modulation (PPM). In this paper, we investigate the bit error rate (BER) performance of optical wireless communication (OWC) system using binary phase shift keying (BPSK) SIM in non-Kolmogorov turbulent atmosphere. We pay attention to the weak turbulence conditions by using Rytov approximation and considering that the receiver is a PIN photodetector. Propagating beam type is Gaussian. It is seen that BER performance of the BPSK SIM OWC is significantly affected from non-Kolmogorov power law exponent, load resistor, responsivity of the PIN photodetector, bandwidth, beam source size, turbulence strength and noise factor.

    Anisotropy Effect on Performance of Ppm Optical Wireless Oceanic Communication Links
    (Pergamon-elsevier Science Ltd, 2019) Baykal, Yahya
    The performance, quantified by the bit-error-rate (BER), of M-ary pulse position modulated (PPM) optical wireless oceanic communication (OWOC) link is investigated when such a link operates in anisotropic weak oceanic turbulence. For this purpose, formulations of the average received power and the scintillation index of collimated Gaussian optical beam detected by a point detector are developed for anisotropic weak oceanic turbulence, which in turn are employed in the BER expression of the PPM OWOC links. BER is evaluated under various turbulence parameters of anisotropic oceanic turbulence, M of M-ary PPM, data bit rate, average current gain of avalanche photodiode (APD). For any investigated parameter, it is found that the BER performance of M-ary PPM OWOC links is improved as the ocean becomes more anisotropic. (C) 2019 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

    Modification of a Plasmonic Nanoparticle Lifetime by Coupled Quantum Dots
    (Amer Physical Soc, 2019) Salmanogli, Ahmad
    In this study, the interaction between a plasmonic nanoparticle and coupled quantum dots is investigated to identify how the coupled particles can manipulate the plasmonic nanoparticle decay rate. This subject is very important, because most applications of the plasmonic system are restricted due to the nanoparticle decay rate and the related losses. Therefore, in the present work, we try to find out how and by which method the plasmonic nanoparticle decay rate can be manipulated. For this purpose, a plasmonic system containing a nanoparticle coupled to some small quantum dots is designed. The system dynamics of motions are analyzed with Heisenberg-Langevin equations. These equations are analyzed to study the effect of the plasmonic nanoparticles on the quantum dots' decay rate. In the following, as an interesting point, the quantum dot coupling influence on the nanoparticle's decay rate is theoretically analyzed in the transient and steady-state conditions. Additionally, a theoretical formula is derived by which one can explicitly find the dependency of the modified decay rate of the plasmonic nanoparticle on the number of the coupled quantum dots and the coupling strength. The simulation results show that it is possible to effectively control the nanoparticles' decay rate with regard to the application for which they are utilized.

    Average Channel Capacity in Anisotropic Atmospheric Non-Kolmogorov Turbulent Medium
    (Elsevier, 2019) Baykal, Yahya; Gokce, Muhsin Caner; Ata, Yalcin
    The average channel capacity of a free space optical (FSO) communication system running an intensity modulated Gaussian beam is examined in anisotropic non-Kolmogorov atmospheric weak turbulence based on Rytov variance. Results are obtained by employing the log-normal distribution of irradiance fluctuations corresponding to weak turbulence regime. Our results show that average channel capacity increases together with the increase in anisotropy factor in x and y direction, non-Kolmogorov power law exponent, quantum efficiency of photo detector, Gaussian beam source size and the inner scale length. However, the average channel capacity is found to decrease when turbulence strength, link length and noise variance increase.

    Performance Analysis of M-Ary Pulse Position Modulation in Strong Oceanic Turbulence
    (Elsevier Science Bv, 2018) Baykal, Yahya; Ata, Yalcin; Gokce, Muhsin Caner
    In this paper, we consider an underwater wireless optical communication (UWOC) system which consists of an M-ary pulse position modulated (PPM) Gaussian optical beam at the transmitter and an avalanche photodiode (APD) at the receiver. In strong oceanic turbulence, we aimed at investigating the system performance in terms of bit error rate (BER) by the help of gamma-gamma channel model. For this purpose, the average power and the aperture averaged scintillation at the finite sized detector are derived by using the extended Huygens-Fresnel principle and the asymptotic Rytov theory, respectively. BER variations are examined versus the average APD gain, modulation order, bit rate as well as the oceanic turbulence parameters, i.e., the rate of dissipation of kinetic energy per unit mass of fluid, the rate of dissipation of mean-squared temperature and the ratio of temperature to salinity contributions to the refractive index spectrum.

    Anisotropy Effect on Multi-Gaussian Beam Propagation in Turbulent Ocean
    (Osa-optical Soc, 2018) Ata, Yalcin; Baykal, Yahya
    Average transmittance of multi-Gaussian (flat-topped and annular) optical beams in an anisotropic turbulent ocean is examined analytically based on the extended Huygens-Fresnel principle. Transmittance variations depending on the link length, anisotropy factor, salinity and temperature contribution factor, source size, beam flatness order of flat-topped beam, Kolmogorov microscale length, rate of dissipation of turbulent kinetic energy, rate of dissipation of the mean squared temperature, and thickness of annular beam are examined. Results show that all these parameters have effects in various forms on the average transmittance in an anisotropic turbulent ocean. Hence, the performance of optical wireless communication systems can be improved by taking into account the variation of average transmittance versus the above parameters.

    Signal-To Ratio Reduction Due To Oceanic Turbulence in Oceanic Wireless Optical Communication Links
    (Elsevier Science Bv, 2018) Baykal, Yahya
    The effect of oceanic turbulence on the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) at the receiver of an oceanic wireless optical communication (OWOC) link is studied. To quantify such effect, the metric employed is the reduction in the SNR when oceanic turbulence is present. SNR reduction due to oceanic turbulence is formulated by subtracting the 10 log (SNR) evaluated at the receiver in the presence of turbulence from the 10 log (SNR) evaluated at the receiver in the absence of turbulence. Classical SNR formula which is function of the received optical power, noise and optical detector parameters is utilized. As the average received power, our earlier result that uses a Gaussian optical source field and a finite Gaussian receiver aperture in atmospheric turbulence is adapted for oceanic turbulence and such found average received power is inserted in the SNR expression. OWOC links that use collimated Gaussian optical sources at the transmitter and PIN photodiode, avalanche photodiode (APD) at the receiver, are analyzed. Results that present the variations of the SNR reduction due to oceanic turbulence against the changes in the source, oceanic turbulence and the optical receiver parameters are reported.
