Cooperative Wave Mixing in Atoms and Solids
(2016-05-04)Enhancing optical signal is a subject of long term interest with many applications, such as trace chemical detection in the lab and standoff detection in the atmosphere. It is well known that optical properties of multi-level ... -
Optical Precursors in Rubidium Vapor and Their Relation to Superradiance
(2012-10-19)Optical precursor is the sharp optical pulse front that does not show delay in absorptive media. In this thesis, optical precursor behavior in rubidium (Rb) vapor was investigated in the picoseconds regime. An amplified ... -
Quantum Coherence Effects in Novel Quantum Optical Systems
(2012-10-19)Optical response of an active medium can substantially be modified when coherent superpositions of states are excited, that is, when systems display quantum coherence and interference. This has led to fascinating applications ... -
Superradiance and Topological Quantum Optics in Atomic Medium and Cavity QED
(2017-12-08)In this dissertation we focused on two topics: 1. atomic cooperative effect, including superradiance, subradiance and collective Lamb shift in an atomic ensemble; 2. novel topological effect in quantum optics system, such ... -
Ultrafast Cooperative Phenomena in Coherently Prepared Media: From Superfluorescence to Coherent Raman Scattering and Applications
(2012-07-16)Technological progress in commercializing ultrafast lasers and detectors has allowed realization of cooperative processes on an ultrashort time scale, which demand a re-evaluation of the conventional cooperative phenomena ...
