Telecommunication-wavelength solid-state memory at the single photon level.
We demonstrate experimentally the storage and retrieval of weak coherent light fields at telecommunication wavelengths in a solid. Light pulses at the single photon level are stored for a time up to 600 ns in an erbium-doped Y2SiO5 crystal at 2.6 K and retrieved on demand. The memory is based on photon echoes with controlled reversible inhomogeneous broadening, which is realized here for the fi...
متن کاملSingle-photon-level quantum memory at room temperature.
Room-temperature, easy-to-operate quantum memories are essential building blocks for future long distance quantum information networks operating on an intercontinental scale, because devices like quantum repeaters, based on quantum memories, will have to be deployed in potentially remote, inaccessible locations. Here we demonstrate controllable, broadband and efficient storage and retrieval of ...
متن کاملStrong Photon-Photon Interactions at the Single-Photon Level
Engineering light at the single photon level is a long-standing goal in physics. In this thesis, we investigate optical nonlinearities at the single photon level orchestrated by an optical cavity. We demonstrate an all-optical transistor where one stored ‘gate’ photon controls the propagation of a ’source’ light beam. The system is based on EIT and a highcooperativity cavity. Each ’gate’ photon...
متن کاملStorage density of shift-multiplexed holographic memory.
The storage density of shift-multiplexed holographic memory is calculated and compared with experimentally achieved densities by use of photorefractive and write-once materials. We consider holographic selectivity as well as the recording material's dynamic range (M/#) and required diffraction efficiencies in formulating the calculations of storage densities, thereby taking into account all maj...
