Wave packets in a semiconductor superlattice
A theoretical study of hole wave packets in a GaAs, Als,,Ga,,,As superlattice is presented. Formation of the wave packet by short laser pulse excitation and the time-dependent nature of the wave packet are discussed, with particular attention given to the quasi-periodic nature of the time dependence. Phenomena analogous to those displayed in atomic and molecular wave packet systems are predicte...
متن کاملSemiconductor waveguide source of counterpropagating twin photons.
We experimentally demonstrate an integrated semiconductor source of counterpropagating twin photons in the telecom range. A pump beam impinging on top of an AlGaAs waveguide generates parametrically two counterpropagating, orthogonally polarized signal/idler guided modes. A 2 mm long waveguide emits at room temperature one average photon pair per pump pulse, with a spectral linewidth of 0.15 nm...
متن کاملTriggered Source of Single Photons based on Controlled Single Molecule Fluorescence
We use the method of adiabatic following to prepare a single molecule in its fluorescing excited state. Spontaneous emission from this state gives rise to a single photon. With our current experimental conditions, up to 74% of the sweeps lead to the emission of a single photon. Since the adiabatic passage is done on command, the molecule performs as a high rate source of triggered photons. The ...

T H E Q U A N T U M N A T U R E O F L I G H T , that is, the fact that light consists of individual photons, prevents, however, the extraction of a small fraction of a weak pulse. If each bit of information is encoded, e.g., via the light polarization, in a pulse that consists of exactlyone photon, then the eavesdropper must divert the whole pulse, which is easily detected at the receiving end....
متن کاملHigh-efficiency generation of a continuous-wave single-frequency 780 nm laser by external-cavity frequency doubling.
We demonstrated a 670 mW continuous-wave single-frequency laser source at 780 nm by using external-cavity-enhanced second-harmonic generation of a seeded fiber amplifier in periodically poled lithium niobate. A maximum second-harmonic conversion efficiency of 58% was achieved. The source can work stably over 1 h by locking the frequency-doubling cavity, while the power stability is less than 2%.
