MUMBAI, India, Aug. 1 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202517066543 A) filed by Quantum Optical Technologies Sp. Z O. O., Rzeszow, Poland, on July 11, for 'method for synchronizing light beams in the detection of very weak optical signals carrying classical or quantum information.'

Inventor(s) include Jachura, Michal; Jarzyna, Marcin; and Tanska, Lidia.

The application for the patent was published on Aug. 1, under issue no. 31/2025.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The subject of invention is a method for synchronizing optical beams in the detection of very weak optical signals carrying classical or quantum information, based on quantum pulse gating implemented using a nonlinear optical medium. It is characterized in that the lower frequency optical beam leaving the nonlinear medium is monitored by a photodetector connected to an electronic module, which controls the optical delay line placed in the optical path of the control beam or the signal beam in such a way that the value of the time-averaged optical signal measured by the photodetector is as small as possible, while the correction of the delay line based on the measured signal occurs continuously or periodically. The higher frequency optical beam leaving the nonlinear medium is measured using an optical signal receiver capable of detecting the optical signal modulated in the modulation format of the transmitter generating the signal beam pulses."

The patent application was internationally filed on Dec. 27, 2023, under International application No.PCT/PL2023/050108.
