Analytical description of spectral hole-burning effects in active semiconductors.
An analytical description of the effects of spectral hole burning on the optical properties of active semiconductor materials is developed for fields that are slow compared to intraband relaxation times. Nonlinear gain compression and four-wave mixing effects are discussed.
متن کاملSpectral hole burning and selection of conformational substates in chromoproteins.
We investigated spectral holes burnt at 1.5 K into the origins of several tautomeric forms of mesoporphyrin IX-substituted horseradish peroxidase at pH 8 under pressures up to 2 MPa. From the pressure-induced lineshift the compressibility of the apoprotein could be determined. We found that the compressibility changed significantly when measured at different tautomer origins. It was concluded t...
متن کاملSpectral hole burning and its application in microwave photonics
Spectral hole burning, used in inhomogeneously broadened emitters, is a well-established optical1 technique, with applications from spectroscopy to slow light2 and frequency combs3. In microwave photonics4, electron spin ensembles5,6 are candidates for use as quantum memories7 with potentially long storage times8. Here, we demonstrate long-lived collective dark states9 by spectral hole burning ...
متن کاملBroadband radio-frequency spectrum analysis in spectral-hole-burning media.
We demonstrate a 20 GHz spectrum analyzer with 1 MHz resolution and >40 dB dynamic range using spectral-hole-burning (SHB) crystals, which are cryogenically cooled crystal hosts lightly doped with rare-earth ions. We modulate a rf signal onto an optical carrier using an electro-optic intensity modulator to produce a signal beam modulated with upper and lower rf sidebands. Illuminating SHB cryst...
متن کاملDetection of ultrasound-modulated diffuse photons using spectral-hole burning.
The lack of efficient detection techniques has so far prevented ultrasound-modulated optical tomography from achieving maturity. By applying a quantum spectral filter based on spectral-hole burning, one modulation sideband of the ultrasound-modulated diffuse photons can be efficiently selected while the DC and the other sidebands are blocked. This technique features a large etendue as well as t...
