Sub-picosecond all-optical switch using a multi-quantum-well semiconductor optical amplifier
We investigate an all-optical switch that is operated by the nonlinear phase-shift introduced by optical pulses with duration of 200 fs in a semiconductor optical amplifier (SOAs). The gate is made out of a commercially available InGaAsP–InGaAs multi-quantum-well (MQW) SOA placed in a Mach–Zehnder interferometer. We have measured the nonlinear phase-shift as a function of the injection current ...
متن کاملNanoscale sub-100 picosecond all-optical magnetization switching in GdFeCo microstructures.
Ultrafast magnetization reversal driven by femtosecond laser pulses has been shown to be a promising way to write information. Seeking to improve the recording density has raised intriguing fundamental questions about the feasibility of combining ultrafast temporal resolution with sub-wavelength spatial resolution for magnetic recording. Here we report on the experimental demonstration of nanos...
متن کاملAn all-optical quantum gate in a semiconductor quantum dot.
We report coherent optical control of a biexciton (two electron-hole pairs), confined in a single quantum dot, that shows coherent oscillations similar to the excited-state Rabi flopping in an isolated atom. The pulse control of the biexciton dynamics, combined with previously demonstrated control of the single-exciton Rabi rotation, serves as the physical basis for a two-bit conditional quantu...
متن کاملLarge optical nonlinearity of ITO nanorods for sub-picosecond all-optical modulation of the full-visible spectrum
Nonlinear optical responses of materials play a vital role for the development of active nanophotonic and plasmonic devices. Optical nonlinearity induced by intense optical excitation of mobile electrons in metallic nanostructures can provide large-amplitude, dynamic tuning of their electromagnetic response, which is potentially useful for all-optical processing of information and dynamic beam ...
متن کاملSub-picosecond Optical Pulses at the Sls Storage Ring
We report on the feasibility and expected performance of a sub-picosecond X-ray source at the Swiss Light Source (SLS), based on the electron-beam slicing method. This method has recently been demonstrated at the Advanced Light Source (ALS), using a bending magnet to produce ultrafast optical pulses [1]. To improve the flux of such a source for user experiments, we have studied its realization ...
