Toward quantum processing in molecules: a THz-bandwidth coherent memory for light.
The unusual features of quantum mechanics are enabling the development of technologies not possible with classical physics. These devices utilize nonclassical phenomena in the states of atoms, ions, and solid-state media as the basis for many prototypes. Here we investigate molecular states as a distinct alternative. We demonstrate a memory for light based on storing photons in the vibrations o...
متن کاملTHz-bandwidth tunable slow light in semiconductor optical amplifiers.
We report tunable fractional delays of 250% for 700 fs pulses propagating in a 1.55 mum semiconductor optical amplifier at room temperature. This large fractional delay is attributed to a spectral hole created by the propagating pulses for pulses with duration shorter than the carrier heating relaxation time. Delay can be tuned electrically by adjusting the current with low amplitude variation ...
متن کاملDesign Optimization for 4.1-THZ Quantum Cascade Lasers
We present an optimized design for GaAs/AlGaAs quantum cascade lasers operating at 4.1THz. This was based on a three-well active module with diagonal radiative transition. This was performed by modifying the existing model structure, to reduce the parasitic anticrossings (leakage currents) as well as the optical gain linewidth. While the gain FWHM was reduced by more than 50% the gain pea...
متن کاملShaping quantum pulses of light via coherent atomic memory.
We describe proof-of-principle experiments demonstrating a novel approach for generating pulses of light with controllable photon numbers, propagation direction, timing, and pulse shapes. The approach is based on preparation of an atomic ensemble in a state with a desired number of atomic spin excitations, which is later converted into a photon pulse. Spatiotemporal control over the pulses is o...
