چکیده

A novel scheme to achieve large-angle atomic diffraction by standing-wave fields is proposed. It uses a highorder Doppleron resonance as a catalyst to speed up a high-order Bragg resonance by orders of magnitude. This effect occurs when the atom-field frequency detuning is such that the Bragg resonance and the Doppleron resonance become degenerate.

Point-by-point inscription of first-order fiber Bragg grating for C-band applications.

The influence of the fiber geometry on the point-by-point inscription of fiber Bragg gratings using a femtosecond laser is highlighted. Fiber Bragg gratings with high spectral quality and strong first-order Bragg resonances within the C-band are achieved by optimizing the inscription process. Large birefringence (1.2x10(-4)) and high degree of polarization-dependent index modulation are observe...

Integrated optic glass microcantilevers with Bragg grating interrogation.

A new method for creating microcantilevers in glass allows integration of optical waveguides and Bragg gratings. Devices are fabricated by high precision sawing, followed by direct UV writing of waveguides with Bragg gratings and then chemical etching to release the freestanding glass structures. Optical measurement of the Bragg gratings together with piezo-actuation allows the mechanical reson...

Bragg scattering of free electrons using the Kapitza-Dirac effect.

Bragg scattering has been observed for free electrons using a standing wave of light. Both the rocking curve and the angular electron distribution have been measured. The results of a numerical simulation to the Schrödinger equation are consistent with our experimental data. Unlike the diffraction regime which uses thin crystals, the Bragg regime requires the use of thick crystals. We point out...

Photoassociation as a probe of Feshbach resonances in cold-atom scattering

We investigate theoretically the influence of magnetically tunable Feshbach collision resonances on the photoassociation spectra of ultracold atoms. As an example we consider recently predicted resonances for Rb atoms. For excitation to the Rb2 0g (S1/21P1/2) electronic state, we predict that the photoassociation rate is resonantly enhanced by at least two orders of magnitude. We find that phot...

Quantization of electromagnetic fields in the presence of a spherical semiconductor quantum dot and spontaneous decay of an excited atom doped in this nanostructure

In this paper we consider electromagnetic field quantization in the presence of a dispersive and absorbing semiconductor quantum dot. By using macroscopic approach and Green's function method, quantization of electromagnetic field is investigated. Interaction of a two-level atom , which is doped in a semiconductor quantum dot, with the quantized field is considered and its spontaneous emission ...
