Ultra-slow, stopped, and compressed light in Bose-Einstein condensates
We present theoretical analysis and experimental results of methods to achieve and use ultra-slow light (USL), stopped light, and compressed light in sodium BoseEinstein condensates (BECs). We present applications of these methods to study and harness both the coherent and superfluid properties of BECs. A description of the propagation of probe and coupling laser fields in three-level Λ configu...
متن کاملQuantum Information Storage with Slow and Stopped Light
This essay describes the phenomena where the group velocity of light is reduced to ultraslow speeds, and even stopped in atomic gases. The coherent coupling of photons to atomic spin excitations in the gases through Electromagnetically Induced Transparency (EIT) is discussed, and experimental observation is presented as evidence of the phenomena with specific focus on the emergence of excited s...
متن کاملDistortion management in slow-light pulse delay.
We describe a methodology to maximize slow-light pulse delay subject to a constraint on the allowable pulse distortion. We show that optimizing over a larger number of physical variables can increase the distortion-constrained delay. We demonstrate these concepts by comparing the optimum slow-light pulse delay achievable using a single Lorentzian gain line with that achievable using a pair of c...
متن کاملNonlinear light propagation in chalcogenide photonic crystal slow light waveguides.
Optical nonlinearity can be enhanced by the combination of highly nonlinear chalcogenide glass and photonic crystal waveguides (PCWs) providing strong optical confinement and slow-light effects. In a Ag-As(2)Se(3) chalcogenide PCW, the effective nonlinear parameter γeff reaches 6.3 × 10(4) W(-1)m(-1), which is 200 times larger than that in Si photonic wire waveguides. In this paper, we report t...
متن کاملStopped light and image storage by electromagnetically induced transparency up to the regime of one minute.
The maximal storage duration is an important benchmark for memories. In quantized media, storage times are typically limited due to stochastic interactions with the environment. Also, optical memories based on electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) suffer strongly from such decoherent effects. External magnetic control fields may reduce decoherence and increase EIT storage times conside...
