"Optimal states of light in disordered media: indestructible light beams and maximum information states";
Talk: Colloquium talk at TU Graz, Graz (invited); 2021-12-14.



English abstract:
In my talk I will present recent advances in designing tailor-made
states of light with optimal properties in scattering across highly disordered
media. First, I will present so-called "scattering-invariant modes"; these light
fields have the unique property that they are transmitted across a disordered
medium with the same output profile as when travelling through free space
[1]. In a second part, I will discuss how the concept of Fisher information
allows us to distill from the measurable scattering matrix of a system the
unique state of light, which delivers the maximum amount of information
about a desired system parameter of interest to an external observer [2]. Both
of these concepts were recently implemented together with the group of Allard
Mosk in Utrecht using optical wave-front shaping tools.
