Nonlinear optical memory: theory and experiment

Gabriel C. Borba, D. Felinto, J. W. R. Tabosa

The present work explores new possibilities for the selective storage of optical information through higher-order nonlinearities in a sample of cold cesium atoms obtained from a magneto-optical trap. Particularly, we demonstrate the storage of a third-, fifth-, and seventh-order nonlinear atom–light interaction into the coherences and populations of the Zeeman structure of the hyperfine cesium 6S1/2, F=3 ground state. Two writing beams create coherence and population gratings associated with high-order nonlinear processes, which can be selectively retrieved by a reading beam after a controllable storage time. Each kind of grating can store only specific orders of the nonlinear interaction, leading to special features in each signal. Applications of this nonlinear memory to herald multiphotons are discussed.

Stimulated Raman adiabatic passage with two-color x-ray pulses

Antonio Picón, J. Mompart, Stephen H. Southworth

Recent techniques in x-ray free electron lasers allow the generation of highly coherent, intense x-ray pulses with time lengths on the order of femtoseconds. Here we explore the possibilities of using such x-ray pulses to control matter based on coherence. In particular we propose a theoretical scheme to perform stimulated Raman adiabatic passage in the x-ray regime by using inner-hole excited states. Numerical results in two well-known systems, the neon atom and the carbon monoxide molecule, show a robust control of population transfer. In the molecule, vibrational selectivity is achieved with femtosecond x-ray pulses. This work supports the possibility of using two-color x-ray pulses for coherent control.
