It is generally accepted that quantum mechanics entails a revision of the classical propositional calculus as a consequence of its physical content. However, the universal claim according to which a new quantum logic is indispensable in order to mode...

This work demonstrates a mid-wavelength infrared InAs/InSb superlattice avalanche photodiode (APD). The superlattice APD structure was grown by molecular beam epitaxy on GaSb substrate. The device exhibits a 100 % cut-off wavelength of 4.6 µm a...

A definition of three-variable cumulative residual entropy is introduced, and then used to obtain expressions for higher order or triple-wise correlation measures, that are based on cumulative residual densities. These information measures are calcul...

The ongoing digital transformation is bringing a pervasive diffusion of ultra-broadband, fixed-mobile connectivity, the deployment of cloud-native Fifth Generation (5G) infrastructures, edge and fog computing and a wide adoption of artificial intelli...

We investigate finite systems of N paired fermions, common in atomic nuclei, for example. These systems exhibit quantum mechanical features akin to those of superconductors. We discover, however, some specific N dependent effects that can not be atta...

We investigate quantum correlations appearing for two-qubit detectors which are initially uncorrelated and locally coupled to a massless scalar field in a vacuum state. Under the perturbation up to the second order in the coupling, the state of the d...

We investigate the dynamics of a particle in a confined periodic system—a time-dependent oscillator confined by infinitely high and moving walls—and focus on the evolution of the phase of the wavefunction. It is shown that, for some speci...

We present an extension of the polarization coherence theorem (PCT) for the case in which two qubits play similarly important roles. The standard version of the PCT: ${\mathcal{V}}^2+{\mathcal{D}}^2={\mathcal{P}}^2$, involves three measures, visibility $\mathcal{V}$, distinguishability $\mathcal{D}$, and the degre...

Spin-orbital interaction of light attracts much attention in nanophotonics opening new horizons for modern optical systems and devices. The photonic spin Hall effect or Imbert-Fedorov shift takes a special place among the variety of spin-orbital inte...
