Entanglement of Atomic Ensembles by Trapping Correlated Photon States

M. D. Lukin, S. F. Yelin, M. Fleischhauer

We describe a general technique that allows for an ideal transfer of quantum correlations between light fields and metastable states of matter. The technique is based on trapping q…

How to Trap Photons? Storing Single-Photon Quantum States in Collective Atomic Excitations

M. Fleischhauer, S. F. Yelin, M. D. Lukin

We show that it is possible to ``store'' quantum states of single-photon fields by mapping them onto {\it collective} meta-stable states of an optically dense, coherently driven me…

Nonlinear Optics and Quantum Entanglement of Ultra-Slow Single Photons

M. D. Lukin, A. Imamoglu

Two light pulses propagating with ultra-slow group velocities in a coherently prepared atomic gas exhibit dissipation-free nonlinear coupling of an unprecedented strength. This ena…

Threshold and linewidth of a mirrorless parametric oscillator

M. Fleischhauer, M. D. Lukin, A. B. Matsko +1

We analyze the above-threshold behavior of a mirrorless parametric oscillator based on resonantly enhanced four wave mixing in a coherently driven dense atomic vapor. It is shown t…

Quantum Simulations on a Quantum Computer

S. S. Somaroo, C. H. Tseng, T. F. Havel +2

We present a general scheme for performing a simulation of the dynamics of one quantum system using another. This scheme is used to experimentally simulate the dynamics of truncate…

Parametric Self-Oscillation via Resonantly Enhanced Multiwave Mixing

A. S. Zibrov, M. D. Lukin, M. O. Scully

We demonstrate an efficient nonlinear process in which Stokes and anti-Stokes components are generated spontaneously in a Raman-like, near resonant media driven by low power counte…

Enhancement of Magneto-Optic Effects via Large Atomic Coherence

V. A. Sautenkov, M. D. Lukin, C. J. Bednar +4

We utilize the generation of large atomic coherence to enhance the resonant nonlinear magneto-optic effect by several orders of magnitude, thereby eliminating power broadening and…

Ultra-Slow Light and Enhanced Nonlinear Optical Effects in a Coherently Driven Hot Atomic Gas

Michael M. Kash, Vladimir A. Sautenkov, Alexander S. Zibrov +6

We report the observation of small group velocities of order 90 meters per second, and large group delays of greater than 0.26 ms, in an optically dense hot rubidium gas (~360 K).…
