Characterizing quantum synchronization in the van der Pol oscillator via tomogram and photon correlation
Published on 2026-05-22 by Kingshuk Adhikary, K M Athira and M Rohith @IOP SCIENCE
Abstract: Scalable methods for detecting and quantifying the nonclassical nature of a quantum state in noisy environments are challenging due to a complex relationship between noise and quantum coherence. In particular, identifying experimentally accessible signatures of synchronization in such regimes remains an open problem. By leveraging promising experimental implementation, we underpin what possible direct measures of nonclassicality are available. This work outlines accessing quantum synchronization[...]
Our summary: This study characterizes quantum synchronization in a driven van der Pol oscillator using nonclassical area and second-order correlation function. It leverages homodyne tomography to assess nonclassicality without full state reconstruction. The findings provide a scalable framework for identifying synchronization in noisy environments.
