Hello all. I did my Ph.D. in experimental quantum optics and quantum information at the University of Toronto under the supervision of Dr. Aephraim Steinberg. I did a post-doc in Ian Walmsley's group at the University of Oxford in quantum optics and quantum information in integrated optical circuits. Following that, I worked in standards and metrology at the National Research Council Canada. I am now an Associate Professor in Physics at the University of Ottawa.

Articles I initiated

• degree of coherence
• interferometric visibility
• acousto-optic modulator
• interferometric visibility
• Wigner quasi-probability distribution
• POVM
• Interaction-free measurement
• Massasauga Provincial Park
• List of types of interferometers

Articles I substantially changed

• spontaneous parametric down-conversion
• coherent state
• Brewster's angle
• coherence (physics)
• principle of minimum energy
• Optical activity

Articles I am changing here and there

• nonlinear optics
• Dispersion (optics)

Articles I want to edit

• Electric Field
• SPIDER
• Quantum optics # History of quantum optics
• Quantum chaos
• Integrated optical circuit

Tip of the day...

Using templates

Templates are a type of page that contain boilerplate text that is intended to be displayed on more than one page in Wikipedia.

This Tip of the day box is an example of a template (there are several versions actually), and besides being displayed here it is displayed on many userpages as well.

Template names start with the prefix "Template:" followed by the page name. The main version of the template you are reading right now is called "Template:totd".

To display a template on a page, go to the target page, click "edit", and add the template's name (with or without the prefix) surrounded by double curly brackets to the page's source text. (The text you see in the edit box when you click edit this page is called "source text", because it is a lot like programming code, which is called "source code").

Including a template on a page in this way is called "transclusion". Here's an example:

To include the Template:Philosophy topics, type this at the end of the philosophy article you wish to place it on::

{{Philosophy topics}}
