Solid-state single-photon emitters pp631 - 641 Igor Aharonovich, Dirk Englund and Milos Toth doi:10.1038/nphoton.2016.186 This Review summarizes recent progress of single-photon emitters based on defects in solids and highlights new research directions. The photophysical properties of single-photon emitters and efforts towards scalable system integration are also discussed.

Experimental investigation of the no-signalling principle in parity–time symmetric theory using an open quantum system pp642 - 646 Jian-Shun Tang, Yi-Tao Wang, Shang Yu, De-Yong He, Jin-Shi Xu et al. doi:10.1038/nphoton.2016.144 The violation of the no-signalling principle — information can be transmitted faster than light — is experimentally investigated using entangled photons. It can be simulated when the parity–time symmetrically evolved subspace is solely considered.

Designing whispering gallery modes via transformation optics pp647 - 652 Yushin Kim, Soo-Young Lee, Jung-Wan Ryu, Inbo Kim, Jae-Hyung Han et al. doi:10.1038/nphoton.2016.184 Transformation optics makes it possible to design whispering-gallery-mode resonators with high Q factors and unidirectional emission.

Reversible optical switching of antiferromagnetism in TbMnO3 pp653 - 656 Sebastian Manz, Masakazu Matsubara, Thomas Lottermoser, Jonathan Büchi, Ayato Iyama et al. doi:10.1038/nphoton.2016.146 Laser-controlled writing and erasure of antiferromagnetic domains in multiferroic TbMnO3 using light pulses of two different colours is demonstrated.

Experimental realization of optomechanically induced non-reciprocity pp657 - 661 Zhen Shen, Yan-Lei Zhang, Yuan Chen, Chang-Ling Zou, Yun-Feng Xiao et al. doi:10.1038/nphoton.2016.161 Non-magnetic non-reciprocal transparency and amplification is experimentally achieved by optomechanics using a whispering-gallery microresonator. The idea may lead to integrated all-optical isolators or non-reciprocal phase shifters.

Geopotential measurements with synchronously linked optical lattice clocks pp662 - 666 Tetsushi Takano, Masao Takamoto, Ichiro Ushijima, Noriaki Ohmae, Tomoya Akatsuka et al. doi:10.1038/nphoton.2016.159 Real-time geopotential measurements with two synchronously linked optical lattice clocks are demonstrated. A height difference between the two clocks separated by 15 km is determined, with an uncertainty of 5 cm, by means of a gravitational redshift.

Sub-cycle optical phase control of nanotunnelling in the single-electron regime pp667 - 670 Tobias Rybka, Markus Ludwig, Michael F. Schmalz, Vanessa Knittel, Daniele Brida et al. doi:10.1038/nphoton.2016.174 Carrier-envelope-phase control of the electronic current over a laterally confined tunnelling gap a few nanometres wide yields current densities above 50 MA cm–2 driven by picojoule-level optical pulses at room temperature.

Quantum teleportation with independent sources and prior entanglement distribution over a network pp671 - 675 Qi-Chao Sun, Ya-Li Mao, Si-Jing Chen, Wei Zhang, Yang-Fan Jiang et al. doi:10.1038/nphoton.2016.179 The first field test of quantum teleportation is implemented over a 30 km optical fibre network with independent quantum light sources. To establish a robust quantum teleportation system in the real world, several feedback mechanisms are developed.

Verma et al. doi:10.1038/nphoton.2016.180 The first field test of quantum teleportation is implemented across a metropolitan fibre network with independent quantum light sources. To establish a robust quantum teleportation system in the real world, several feedback mechanisms are developed.
