Optical injection locking of white light cavity based superluminal lasers

Jacob Scheuer, Zifan Zhou, Yael Sternfeld +2

Optical injection locking is a simple method for synchronizing a laser to an external laser source by injecting part of the external laser light into the cavity of the other laser.…

The General Quantum Limit for and the Optimization of the Minimum Measurable Frequency Shift in a Laser

Selim M. Shahriar, Ruoxi Zhu, Jinyang Li +7

We show that, contrary to conventional understanding, the minimum measurable frequency shift (MMFS) for a single-mode ideal laser is determined by a combination of phase diffusion…

Slow Light Augmented Fabry-Perot Cavity for Enhanced Sensitivity in Measuring Frequency Shift

Ruoxi Zhu, Zifan Zhou, Dustin Greenwood +3

Recently, it has been shown that a slow-light augmented unbalanced Mach-Zehnder interferometer (SLAUMZI) can be used to enhance significantly the sensitivity of measuring the frequ…

Slow Light Augmented Unbalanced Interferometry for Extreme Enhancement in Sensitivity of Measuring Frequency Shift in a Laser

Ruoxi Zhu, Zifan Zhou, Jinyang Li +3

We demonstrate a slow-light augmented unbalanced Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI) which can be used to enhance very significantly the sensitivity of measuring the frequency shift…

Algorithm for solving a pump-probe model for an arbitrary number of energy levels

Zifan Zhou, Yael Sternfeld, Jacob Scheuer +1

We describe a generalized algorithm for evaluating the steady-state solution of the density matrix equation of motion, for the pump-probe scheme, when two fields oscillating at dif…
