Quantum optics: Robust light-controlled qubits   pp147 - 148
Lachlan Rogers and Fedor Jelezko
doi:10.1038/nphoton.2016.29
Optical control of geometric phase is demonstrated, paving the way towards quantum state control of the nitrogen–vacancy centre in diamond becoming resilient, spatially selective and scalable.

X-ray photonics: Attosecond coherent control at FELs   pp148 - 150
Nick Hartmann and James M. Glownia
doi:10.1038/nphoton.2016.24
Coherent control joins the nonlinear optical toolbox for free-electron lasers and demonstrates phase control on the attosecond scale.

Optical communications: Temporal ghost imaging   pp150 - 152
Daniele Faccio
doi:10.1038/nphoton.2016.30
Ghost imaging allows the creation of images using light that never interacts with the object. Researchers now show that this technique can be applied to reconstruct temporal 'images' of rapidly varying, picosecond signals in telecommunication systems.

Imaging: Super-resolution fight club   pp152 - 153
Seamus Holden and Daniel Sage
doi:10.1038/nphoton.2016.22
A 2016 competition to find the optimum software for 3D single-molecule localization microscopy will help practitioners choose the best tool for the job and spur further developments in the field.

Multi-wave coherent control of a solid-state single emitter   pp155 - 158
F. Fras, Q. Mermillod, G. Nogues, C. Hoarau, C. Schneider et al.
doi:10.1038/nphoton.2016.2
The coherent control of bright excitons in InAs quantum dots is demonstrated by combining heterodyne spectral interferometry with nonlinear multi-wave mixing. The spectro-temporal shape of the coherent emission from InAs quantum dots is manipulated at will.

Electro-optic sampling of near-infrared waveforms   pp159 - 162
Sabine Keiber, Shawn Sederberg, Alexander Schwarz, Michael Trubetskov, Volodymyr Pervak et al.
doi:10.1038/nphoton.2015.269
Direct measurement of the electric field of light in the near-infrared is experimentally demonstrated, showing that careful optical filtering allows the time-resolved detection of electric field oscillations with half-cycle durations as short as 2.1 fs, even with a 5 fs sampling pulse.

Self-homodyne measurement of a dynamic Mollow triplet in the solid state   pp163 - 166
Kevin A. Fischer, Kai Müller, Armand Rundquist, Tomas Sarmiento, Alexander Y. Piggott et al.
doi:10.1038/nphoton.2015.276
Intrinsic Fano interference in a strongly coupled quantum dot/photonic crystal cavity system is controlled to remove most of the coherently scattered light. This result leads to the first experimental observation of the dynamic Mollow triplet.

Ghost imaging in the time domain   pp167 - 170
Piotr Ryczkowski, Margaux Barbier, Ari T. Friberg, John M. Dudley and Goëry Genty
doi:10.1038/nphoton.2015.274
Scientists demonstrate the temporal analogue of ghost imaging with temporal resolution at the picosecond level. The approach is insensitive to temporal distortion that may occur after the object, and is scalable and can be integrated on-chip.

Attosecond pulses measured from the attosecond lighthouse   pp171 - 175
T. J. Hammond, Graham G. Brown, Kyung Taec Kim, D. M. Villeneuve and P. B. Corkum
doi:10.1038/nphoton.2015.271
Using the attosecond streak camera method, researchers measure the temporal characteristics of coherent, spatially separated attosecond pulses generated from the attosecond lighthouse.

Coherent control with a short-wavelength free-electron laser   pp176 - 179
K. C. Prince, E. Allaria, C. Callegari, R. Cucini, G. De Ninno et al.
doi:10.1038/nphoton.2016.13
Researchers demonstrate correlation of two colours (63.0 and 31.5 nm wavelengths) in a free-electron laser and control photoelectron angular distribution by adjusting phase with 3 attosecond resolution.

Measurement of topological invariants in a 2D photonic system   pp180 - 183
Sunil Mittal, Sriram Ganeshan, Jingyun Fan, Abolhassan Vaezi and Mohammad Hafezi
doi:10.1038/nphoton.2016.10
A photonic analogue of charge pumping in electronic quantum Hall systems is demonstrated by using a finite 2D square annulus of ring resonators. Topological invariants are investigated by observing the shift of the edge state resonances.

Optical manipulation of the Berry phase in a solid-state spin qubit   pp184 - 189
Christopher G. Yale, F. Joseph Heremans, Brian B. Zhou, Adrian Auer, Guido Burkard et al.
doi:10.1038/nphoton.2015.278
An all-optical manipulation of the Berry phase based on stimulated Raman adiabatic passage is demonstrated in an individual nitrogen–vacancy centre in diamond. The adiabatic control is 100 times faster than that demonstrated before in atomic systems.

Weilin Liu, Ming Li, Robert S. Guzzon, Erik J. Norberg, John S. Parker et al.
doi:10.1038/nphoton.2015.281
Scientists experimentally demonstrate a fully configurable photonic integrated signal processor based on an InP–InGaAs material system by controlling the injection currents to the active components.
