Our latest work has just been published in Nature Communications ! In this work, we demonstrate that artificial neural networks can predict and bring a certain degree of control in incoherent dynamics—a longstanding challenge in nonlinear fibre optics.
By combining deep learning with optical seeding and real-time acquisition techniques, we manage to tune, predict and retrieve hidden information from noisy and fluctuating signals. A first step towards an extended control in shaping complex, noise-driven processes in photonics. A work done at XLIM (CNRS/ Université de Limoges), in collaboration with FEMTO-ST Institute and Leibniz Universität Hannover.

Our latest work with the team of Michael Kues (Leibniz University Hannover) is online, and featured in Cover of the ACS Photonics Issue of November 2023.
In this paper, we leverage quantum-inspired dispersive Fourier transform to characterize ultrafast spectral fluctuations with great sensitivity (< fW), high spectral resolution (~50 pm), and excellent dynamic range (up to ~80dB).
A great way to analyze and push forward the study of nonlinear instabilities and incoherent processes in photonics with improved performances.
