Giant cross-Kerr nonlinearity in a four-level Y-type atomic system

Nguyen Tuan Anh, Nguyen Huy Bang, Doai Van Le

We found the analytical expression for cross-Kerr nonlinear coefficient in a four-level Y-type atomic system. The analytical model is applied to 85Rb atoms and shown that under electromagnetically induced transparency, cross-Kerr nonlinear coefficient is enhanced by several orders of magnitude. At the same time, the amplitude and the sign of cross-Kerr nonlinear coefficient are controlled with respect to the intensity and the frequency of the coupling laser field. The analytical model can be useful to explain the experimental results and to study related effects in nonlinear optics. Full Text: PDF ReferencesC. Ottaviani, D. Vitali, M. Artoni, F. Cataliotti, P.

Manipulating giant cross-Kerr nonlinearity at multiple frequencies in an atomic gaseous medium

Le Van Doai, Nguyen Le Thuy An, Dinh Xuan Khoa +2 more

We proposed a model for manipulating giant cross-Kerr nonlinearity in an atomic gaseous medium consisting of six-level inverted-Y systems. The absorption, dispersion, and cross-Kerr nonlinear coefficients of the medium are derived as analytical functions of the parameters of probe, coupling, and signal fields. It is shown that the cross-Kerr nonlinearity is enhanced significantly in three transparent windows under electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT). Furthermore, the cross-Kerr nonlinearity can be manipulated between positive and negative values by controlling intensity and/or frequency of the coupling laser. Such controllable giant cross-Kerr nonlinearity with the analytical interpretation is convenient to find experimental parameters and is useful for studying applications of controllable multi-channel quantum phase gates.

Coupled cavities for enhancing the cross-phase-modulation in electromagnetically induced transparency

Tomáš Opatrný, D.‐G. Welsch

We propose an optical double-cavity resonator whose response to a signal is similar to that of an electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) medium. A combination of such a device with a four-level EIT medium can serve for achieving large cross-Kerr modulation of a probe field by a signal field. This would offer the possibility of building a quantum logic gate based on photonic qubits. We discuss the technical requirements that are necessary for realizing a probe-photon phase shift of $\ensuremath{\pi}$ caused by a single-photon signal. The main difficulty is the requirement of an ultralow reflectivity beam splitter, and we must be able to operate a sufficiently dense cool EIT medium in a cavity.
