Storing quantum information using dark state polaritons
arXiv:quant-ph/0312130 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevA.70.032320
Abstract
The possibility of using a solid medium to store few-photon laser pulses as coupled excitations between light and matter is investigated. The role of inhomogeneous broadening and nonadiabaticity are considered, and conditions governing the feasibility of the scheme are derived. The merits of a number of classes of solid are examined.
