Self-Similar Modes of Coherent Diffusion
O. Firstenberg, P. London, D. Yankelev +3
Self-similar solutions of the coherent diffusion equation are derived and measured. The set of real similarity solutions is generalized by the introduction of a nonuniform phase su…
Strong driving of a single spin using arbitrarily polarized fields
P. London, P. Balasubramanian, B. Naydenov +2
The strong driving regime occurs when a quantum two-level system is driven with an external field whose amplitude is greater or equal to the energy splitting between the system's s…
Elimination, reversal, and directional bias of optical diffraction
O. Firstenberg, P. London, M. Shuker +2
We experimentally demonstrate the manipulation of optical diffraction, utilizing the atomic thermal motion in a hot vapor medium of electromagnetically-induced transparency (EIT).…
Detecting and polarizing nuclear spins with double resonance on a single electron spin
P. London, J. Scheuer, J. -M. Cai +11
We report the detection and polarization of nuclear spins in diamond at room temperature by using a single nitrogen-vacancy (NV) center. We use Hartmann-Hahn double resonance to co…
All-optical reconstruction of atomic ground-state population
P. London, O. Firstenberg, M. Shuker +1
The population distribution within the ground-state of an atomic ensemble is of large significance in a variety of quantum optics processes. We present a method to reconstruct the…
