Quantum memory for light using extended atomic ensembles in a tunable cavity
arXiv:0808.2531 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevA.78.043812
Abstract
Cavity-assisted storage and retrieval of single-photon wave packets in optically thin spatially extended resonant materials are analyzed. It is shown that the use of cavity tuning allows one to store and recall time-symmetric double-sided exponential pulses with near unit efficiency. The optimal regime of the cavity tuning is determined and the effect of time jitter on the storage efficiency is analyzed.
