    Abstract Advances in the ability to manipulate free-electron phase profiles within the electron microscope have spurred development of quantum-mechanical descriptions of electron energy loss (EEL) processes involving transitions between phase-shaped transverse states. Here, we elucidate an underlying connection between two ostensibly distinct optical polarization analogs identified in EEL experiments as manifestations of the same conserved scattering flux. Our work introduces a procedure for probing general tensorial target characteristics including global mode symmetries and local polarization.

    Abstract Nanophotonics research has focused recently on the ability of nonlinear optical processes to mediate and transform optical signals in a myriad of novel devices, including optical modulators, transducers, color filters, photodetectors, photon sources, and ultrafast optical switches. The inherent weakness of optical nonlinearities at smaller scales has, however, hindered the realization of efficient miniaturized devices, and strategies for enhancing both device efficiencies and synthesis throughput via nanoengineering remain limited. Here, we demonstrate a novel mechanism by which second harmonic generation, a prototypical nonlinear optical phenomenon, from individual lithium niobate particles can be significantly enhanced through nonradiative coupling to the localized surface plasmon resonances of embedded gold nanoparticles. A joint experimental and theoretical investigation of single mesoporous lithium niobate particles coated with a dispersed layer of ~10 nm diameter gold nanoparticles shows that a ~32-fold enhancement of second harmonic generation can be achieved without introducing finely tailored radiative nanoantennas to mediate photon transfer to or from the nonlinear material. This work highlights the limitations of current strategies for enhancing nonlinear optical phenomena and proposes a route through which a new class of subwavelength nonlinear optical platforms can be designed to maximize nonlinear efficiencies through near-field energy exchange.

    Abstract Macroscopic, many-body self-trapped and quantum superposition states of the gaseous double-well Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) are investigated within the context of a multiconfigurational bosonic self-consistent field theory based upon underlying spatially symmetry-broken one-body wave functions. To aid in the interpretation of our results, an approximate model is constructed in the extreme Fock state limit, in which self-trapped and superposition states emerge in the many-body spectrum, striking a delicate balance between the degree of symmetry breaking, the effects of the condensate's mean field, and that of atomic correlation. It is found, in both the model and full theory, that the superposition state lies energetically below its related self-trapped counterpart even when many configurations are involved. Noticeably different spatial density profiles are associated with each type of excited state, thus providing a rigorous justification for approximate descriptions of high-lying excited states of the BEC.

    Abstract Free-electron-based measurements in scanning transmission electron microscopes (STEMs) reveal valuable information on the broadband spectral responses of nanoscale systems with deeply subdiffraction limited spatial resolution. Leveraging recent advances in manipulating the spatial phase profile of the transverse electron wavefront, we theoretically describe interactions between the electron probe and optically stimulated nanophotonic targets in which the probe gains energy while simultaneously transitioning between transverse states with distinct phase profiles. Exploiting the selection rules governing such transitions, we propose phase-shaped electron energy gain nanospectroscopy for probing the 3D polarization-resolved response field of an optically excited target with nanoscale spatial resolution. Considering ongoing instrumental developments, polarized generalizations of STEM electron energy loss and gain measurements hold the potential to become powerful tools for fundamental studies of quantum materials and their interaction with nearby nanostructures supporting localized surface plasmon or phonon polaritons as well as for noninvasive imaging and nanoscale 3D field tomography.

    Abstract Exciton polaritons (EPs) are ubiquitous light-matter excitations under intense investigation as test beds of fundamental physics and as components for all-optical computing. Owing to their unique attributes and facile experimental tunability, EPs potentially enable strong nonlinearities, condensation, and superfluidity at room temperature. However, the diffraction limit of light and the momentum content of fast electron probes preclude the characterization of EPs in nanoscale structured cavities exhibiting energy-momentum dispersion. Here we present fully relativistic analytical theory and companion numerical simulations showing that these limitations can be overcome to measure EPs in periodic nanophotonic cavities on their natural energy, momentum, and length scales via lattice electron energy gain spectroscopy. With the combined high momentum resolution of light and nanoscale spatial resolution of focused electron beams, lattice electron energy gain spectroscopy can expose deeply subwavelength EP features using currently available monochromated, aberration-corrected scanning transmission electron microscopes.

    Abstract The observational covariance matrix, whose diagonal square root is currently named radiometric noise, is one of the most important elements to characterize a given instrument. It determines the precision of measurements and their possible spectral inter-correlation. The characterization of this matrix is currently performed with blackbody targets of known temperature and is, therefore, an output of the calibration unit of the instrument system. We developed a methodology that can estimate the observational covariance matrix directly from calibrated Earth-scene observations. The technique can complement the usual analysis based on onboard blackbody calibration and is, therefore, a useful back up to check the overall quality of the calibration unit. The methodology was exemplified by application to three satellite Fourier transform spectrometers: IASI (Infrared Atmospheric Sounder Interferometer), CrIS (Cross-Track Infrared Sounder), and HIRAS (Hyperspectral Infrared Atmospheric Sounder). It was shown that these three instruments are working as expected based on the pre-flight and in-flight characterization of the radiometric noise. However, for all instruments, the analysis of the covariance matrix reveals extra correlation among channels, especially in the short wave spectral regions.
