Spectral narrowing via quantum coherence
(American Physical Society, 2006)
We have studied the transmission through an optically thick Rb-87 vapor that is illuminated by monochromatic and noise-broadened laser fields in Lambda configuration. The spectral width of the beat signal between the two ...
Enhancement of magneto-optic effects via large atomic coherence in optically dense media RID B-9041-2008
(American Physical Society, 2000)
We utilize the generation of large atomic coherence in optically dense media to enhance the resonant nonlinear magneto-optic effect by several orders of magnitude, thereby eliminating power broadening and improving the ...
Optical imaging beyond the diffraction limit via dark states RID A-8711-2009
(American Physical Society, 2008)
We study the possibility of creating spatial patterns having subwavelength size by using the so-called dark states formed by the interaction between atoms and optical fields. These optical fields have a specified spatial ...
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 ...
Quantum search protocol for an atomic array
(American Physical Society, 2001)
Quantum computers can, in principle, exceed the speed of ordinary computers by taking advantage of quantum coherence and entanglement. It is possible to find a "needle in a haystack" of N-1 straws in only rootN searches ...
