Shaping speckles: spatio-temporal focussing of an ultrafast pulse through a multiply scattering medium
David J. McCabe, Ayhan Tajalli, Dane R. Austin +4
The multiple scattering of coherent light is a problem of both fundamental and applied importance. In optics, phase conjugation allows spatial focussing and imaging through a multi…
Space-time coupling of shaped ultrafast ultraviolet pulses from an acousto-optic programmable dispersive filter
David J. McCabe, Dane R. Austin, Ayhan Tajalli +3
A comprehensive experimental analysis of spatio-temporal coupling effects inherent to the acousto-optic programmable dispersive filter (AOPDF) is presented. Phase and amplitude mea…
Robust quantum dot state preparation via adiabatic passage with frequency-swept optical pulses
C. -M. Simon, T. Belhadj, B. Chatel +8
The energy states in semiconductor quantum dots are discrete as in atoms, and quantum states can be coherently controlled with resonant laser pulses. Long coherence times allow the…
A pump-probe study of the formation of rubidium molecules by ultrafast photoassociation of ultracold atoms
David J. McCabe, Duncan G. England, Hugo E. L. Martay +5
An experimental pump-probe study of the photoassociative creation of translationally ultracold rubidium molecules is presented together with numerical simulations of the process. T…
Controlling the polarization eigenstate of a quantum dot exciton with light
Thomas Belhadj, Claire-Marie Simon, Thierry Amand +6
We demonstrate optical control of the polarization eigenstates of a neutral quantum dot exciton without any external fields. By varying the excitation power of a circularly polariz…
Molecular vibrational cooling by Optical Pumping with shaped femtosecond pulses
Dimitris Sofikitis, Sebastien Weber, Andréa Fioretti +5
Some of us have recently reported in Science 321 232 (2008) vibrational cooling of translationally cold Cs_2 molecules into the lowest vibrational level v=0 of the singlet X 1Sigma…
