Propagation Dynamics and Transient Amplification in Warm and Cold Atomic EIT Systems
Andrew MacRae, Connor Kupchak
We study the limitations on observing transient amplification in atomic systems exhibiting electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) and evaluate the limits of optical Bloch e…
Complete temporal characterization of a single photon
Zhongzhong Qin, Adarsh S. Prasad, Travis Brannan +3
Precise information about the temporal mode of optical states is crucial for optimizing their interaction efficiency between themselves and/or with matter in various quantum commun…
Generation and tomography of arbitrary qubit states in a transient collective atomic excitation
Travis Brannan, Zhongzhong Qin, Andrew MacRae +1
We demonstrate the generation of heralded Fock-basis qubits from transient collective spin excitations in a hot atomic vapor. The collective spin excita…
Tomography of a High-Purity Narrowband Photon From a Transient Atomic Collective Excitation
A. MacRae, T. Brannan, A. I. Lvovsky
We demonstrate the efficient heralded generation of high purity narrow-bandwidth single photons from a transient collective spin excitation in a hot atomic vapour cell. Employing o…
Transverse multi-mode effects on the performance of photon-photon gates
Bing He, Andrew MacRae, Yang Han +2
The multi-mode character of quantum fields imposes constraints on the implementation of high-fidelity quantum gates between individual photons. So far this has only been studied fo…
Quantum-optical state engineering up to the two-photon level
Erwan Bimbard, Nitin Jain, Andrew MacRae +1
We propose and experimentally verify a scheme to engineer arbitrary states of traveling light field up to the two-photon level. The desired state is remotely prepared in the signal…
