Optical beam steering based on electromagnetically induced transparency
(American Physical Society, 2006)
We propose a scheme that provides all-optically-controlled steering of light beam. The system is based on steep dispersion of a coherently driven medium. Using the eikonal equation, we study the steering angle, the spread ...
Optically controlled delays for broadband pulses
(American Physical Society, 2005)
We propose a scheme that provides large controllable delays for broadband optical pulses. The system is based on the steep dispersion of a coherently driven medium, in which the narrow electromagnetically induced transparency ...
Cavity QED implementation of the discrete quantum Fourier transform
(American Physical Society, 2002)
We present a scheme for the implementation of the discrete quantum Fourier transform using cavity quantum electrodynamics. In the proposed scheme a series of atoms whose atomic coherence carries the input state passes ...
Effect of the counterrotating-wave terms on the spontaneous emission from a multilevel atom
(American Physical Society, 2009)
The spontaneous decay of a multilevel atom interacting with the electromagnetic field in free space is investigated with a unitary transformation method, which is introduced in order to include all rotating and counter-rotating ...
Atom localization via phase and amplitude control of the driving field
(American Physical Society, 2002)
Control of amplitude and phase of the driving field in an atom-field interaction leads towards the strong line narrowing and quenching in the spontaneous emission spectrum. We exploit this fact for the atom localization ...
Resonant enhancement of high-order optical nonlinearities based on atomic coherence RID A-1272-2007
(American Physical Society, 2002)
We show that the effect of coherent population trapping may result in resonant enhancement of chi((5)) or higher-order nonlinearities. The enhancement is accompanied by suppression of the other linear and nonlinear ...
Hanbury Brown-Twiss effect and thermal light ghost imaging: A unified approach
(American Physical Society, 2009)
We compare the Hanbury Brown-Twiss (HBT) and the thermal light ghost imaging schemes in both near and far fields. Both effects arise as a result of the intensity fluctuations of the thermal light and we find that the ...
Single atom as a macroscopic entanglement source
(American Physical Society, 2006)
We discuss the generation of a macroscopic entangled state in a single atom cavity-QED system. The three-level atom in a cascade configuration interacts dispersively with two classical coherent fields inside a doubly ...
Condensation of N bosons. II. Nonequilibrium analysis of an ideal Bose gas and the laser phase-transition analogy
(American Physical Society, 2000)
A nonequilibrium approach to the dynamics and statistics of the condensate of an ideal N-atom Bose gas cooling via interaction with a thermal reservoir using the canonical ensemble is developed. We derive simple analytical ...
Multimode regimes in quantum cascade lasers: From coherent instabilities to spatial hole burning RID B-8648-2009
(American Physical Society, 2008)
A theoretical and experimental study of multimode operation regimes in quantum cascade lasers (QCLs) is presented. It is shown that the fast gain recovery of QCLs promotes two multimode regimes: One is spatial hole burning ...
