Correlation of photon pairs from the double Raman amplifier: Generalized analytical quantum Langevin theory
(American Physical Society, 2007)
We present a largely analytical theory for two-photon correlations G((2)) between Stokes (s) and anti-Stokes (a) photon pairs from an extended medium (amplifier) composed of double-Lambda atoms in counterpropagating geometry. ...
Quantum state measurement using phase-sensitive amplification in a driven three-level atomic system
(American Physical Society, 2001)
Phase-sensitive amplification in a three-level atomic system exhibits interesting features. For example, in the zero-detuning limit and for sufficiently strong driving field, this system becomes an ideal parametric amplifier, ...
Quantum theory of a micromaser operating on the atomic scattering from a resonant standing wave
(American Physical Society, 2001)
We study the amplification of a resonant standing-wave light field due to the interaction with a beam of monovelocity two-level atoms moving in the Raman-Nath regime and in the Bragg regime. The atomic density is low so ...
Improving engine efficiency by extracting laser energy from hot exhaust gas RID A-1272-2007
(American Physical Society, 2003)
We show that it is possible to improve the efficiency of a classical Otto-cycle heat engine by adding a high-Q microwave cavity and a laser system that can extract coherent laser energy from thermally excited "exhaust" ...
Localization of atomic ensembles via superfluorescence RID B-9093-2009 RID A-5077-2009
(American Physical Society, 2007)
The subwavelength localization of an ensemble of atoms concentrated to a small volume in space is investigated. The localization relies on the interaction of the ensemble with a standing wave laser field. The light scattered ...
Coherent instabilities in a semiconductor laser with fast gain recovery
(American Physical Society, 2007)
We report the observation of a coherent multimode instability in quantum cascade lasers (QCLs), which is driven by the same fundamental mechanism of Rabi oscillations as the elusive Risken-Nummedal-Graham-Haken (RNGH) ...
Cavity-QED-based quantum phase gate
(American Physical Society, 2003)
We describe a quantum phase gate in which the two qubits are represented by the photons in the two modes of the cavity field. The gate is implemented by passing a three-level atom in a cascade configuration through the ...
Nonlinear optics via double dark resonances
(American Physical Society, 2003)
Double dark resonances originate from a coherent perturbation of a system displaying electromagnetically induced transparency. We experimentally show and theoretically confirm that this leads to the possibility of extremely ...
Tunable phase control for subluminal to superluminal light propagation
(American Physical Society, 2004)
We demonstrate tunable control of the group velocity of a weak probe pulse from subluminal to superluminal. The model is an extended Lambda-type system with two extra control fields and an extra energy level. Phase variation ...
Large negative and positive delay of optical pulses in coherently prepared dense Rb vapor with buffer gas RID B-9041-2008
(American Physical Society, 2004)
We experimentally study the group time delay for a light pulse propagating through hot Rb-87 vapor in the presence of a strong coupling field in a Lambda configuration. We demonstrate that the ultraslow pulse propagation ...
