Slow light using semiconductor optical amplifiers: Model and noise characteristics

We developed an improved model in order to predict the RF behavior of the SOA valid for any experimental conditions. It takes into account the dynamic saturation of the SOA, which can be fully characterized by a simple measurement, and only relies…

Optical Excitation of Nuclear Spin Coherence in Tm3+:YAG

A thulium-doped crystal is experimentally shown to be an excellent candidate for broadband quantum storage in a solid-state medium. For the first time, nuclear spin coherence is optically excited, detected and characterized in such a crystal. The…

Dual-Frequency Laser at 1.5 µm for the Generation of High-Purity Microwave Signals

We describe the stabilization of a dual-frequency laser on an external reference and on fiber delay lines. Low phase noise (-107 dBrad²/Hz at 10 kHz) beatnotes tunable from 2 to 6 GHz are demonstrated.

Branching ratio measurement of a "Lambda" system in Tm3+:YAG under magnetic field

A three-level Lambda system in Tm3+ doped YAG crystal is experimentally investigated in the prospect of quantum information processing. Zeeman effect is used to lift the nuclear spin degeneracy of this ion. In a previous paper [de Seze et al. Phys…

Monitoring of Orientation in Molecular Ensemblesby Polarization Sensitive Nonlinear Microscopy

We present high resolution two-photon excitation microscopystudies combining two-photon fluorescence (TPF) and secondharmonic generation (SHG) in order to probe orientationaldistributions of molecular ensembles at room temperature. Adetailed…
