Abstract

Effective multimode photon echo quantum memory on multiatomic ensemble in the QED cavity is proposed. We obtain the analytical solution for the quantum memory efficiency that can be equal to unity when optimal conditions for the cavity and atomic parameters are held. Detailed analysis of the optimal conditions is performed. Numerical estimation for realistic atomic and cavity parameters demonstrates the high efficiency of the quantum memory for an optically thin resonant atomic system that opens a door for real applications.

Off-resonant Raman-echo quantum memory for inhomogeneously broadened atoms in a cavity

Sergey A. Moiseev

A scheme of photon echo-based quantum memory in the optimal optical QED cavity with off-resonant Raman atomic transition is proposed. The scheme employs the atomic ensembles characterized by an optically thin resonant transition and natural inhomogeneous broadening of the resonant line composed of the arbitrary narrow homogeneous spectral components. The scheme provides robust and quite simple coherent control of the light atoms dynamics that can be implemented by using an existing optical technique and opens a practical way for realization of the efficient long-lived multimode optical quantum memory.

Photon echo quantum random access memory integration in a quantum computer

Sergey A. Moiseev, Sergey N. Andrianov

We have analyzed an efficient integration of the multi-qubit echo quantum memory into the quantum computer scheme on the atomic resonant ensembles in quantum electrodynamics cavity. Here, one atomic ensemble with controllable inhomogeneous broadening is used for the quantum memory node and other atomic ensembles characterized by the homogeneous broadening of the resonant line are used as processing nodes. We have found optimal conditions for efficient integration of multi-qubit quantum memory modified for this analyzed physical scheme and we have determined a specified shape of the self temporal modes providing a perfect reversible transfer of the photon qubits between the quantum memory node and arbitrary processing nodes. The obtained results open the way for realization of full-scale solid state quantum computing based on using the efficient multi-qubit quantum memory.

It shows that the storage efficiency can nearly reach 100% with a high optical depth, and furthermore we analyze the optimal broadening for a given pulse width.

Photon echo in a ring cavity: pulse area approach

Sergey A. Moiseev, R. V. Urmancheev

The active use of resonators in quantum technologies increases the interest of their application in the creation of optical and microwave quantum memory. The use of photon and spin echoes opens up the possibility of storing a large number of light pulses in one such memory cell. High efficiency of such quantum memory is achieved in an optically dense resonant media, in which the formation of a photon (spin) echo can be accompanied by an increase in the nonlinear interaction of light with atoms causing the appearance of multiple echo signals. In this paper, we develop the pulse area approach to study general nonlinear properties of the primary and multi-pulse echo signals excited in a two-level atomic ensemble located in ring cavities with volumetric and surface modes. Conditions under which one or more echo pulses can be generated are analyzed. The solutions obtained are compared with recent experimental results. We show that the area theorem is one of the simplest and most powerful analytical tools for studying a highly nonlinear and dynamical process of the formation of the sequence of photon/spin echo signals in resonant media inside the resonator.

Quantum memory protocol in QED cavity based on Photon echo

Sergey A. Moiseev

A new protocol of the optical quantum memory based on the resonant interactions of the multi atomic system with a cavity light mode is proposed. The quantum memory is realized using a controllable inversion of the inhomogeneous broadening of the resonant atomic transition and impact interaction (on request) of additional short 2 - laser pulse resonant to an adjacent atomic transition. We demonstrate that the quantum memory protocol is effective for arbitrary storage time and can be used for new quantum manipulations with transient entangled states in the field-atoms evolution. The effect of the fast absorption and emission of the light field is predicted.
