Improved Light-Matter Interaction for Storage of Quantum States of Light in a Thulium-Doped Crystal Cavity

Jacob H. Davidson, Pascal Lefebvre, Jun Zhang +2

We design and implement an atomic frequency comb quantum memory for 793 nm wavelength photons using a monolithic cavity based on a thulium-doped Y${}_3$Al${}_5$O${}_{12}$ (Tm:YAG) crysta…
