Physical Review A

Photon-echo quantum memory with efficient multipulse readings

Abstract

We present a photon-echo quantum memory technique for manipulating quantum states of photons interacting with an atomic gas medium. The technique offers vast potential for the complete nonlocal-in-time multipulse reconstruction of a stored light as a superposition of echo fields, irradiated from the medium at different moments of time. Using this technique the dynamic control of quantum states is effectively possible by simply varying the laser parameters.

Quantum memory based on coherence transfer

Sergey A. Moiseev, Byoung Seung HAM

We analytically demonstrate a quantum memory based on coherence transfer for manipulating quantum states of photons interacting with a macroscopic medium. The present quantum memory has potential for quantum information and communications using entanglement storage and retrieval. Using this technique the quantum coherent control of a quantum state is effectively possible by simply varying the classical laser parameters.

Technique of quantum memory on the basis of a photon echo in gases

Sergey A. Moiseev, M. I. Noskov

The technique of quantum memory based on the use of a photon echo in gases is studied theoretically taking into account three-dimensional specific features in the propagation of light fields and the motion of atoms in a gas. Analytical solutions describing the effects of atomic motion and diffraction of light fields on the properties of the quantum state of light being reconstructed are obtained. Estimates of the parameters of light fields that are optimum for realizing the quantum memory based on a photon echo in gaseous media are presented.

Photon-echo-based quantum memory of arbitrary light field states

Sergey A. Moiseev

We develop the general theoretical approach to an optical quantum memory (QM) based on the three-pulse photon echo (PE) with controlled reversible inhomogeneous broadening. The wavefunction of the retrieved photon echo field is derived explicitly as a function of an arbitrary input data light field taking into account the nonlinear interaction between the quantum light fields and the atomic medium. The result opens a clear possibility for quantum manipulations with arbitrary single- and multi-photon entangled light fields.

Complete reconstruction of one and two photon fields using the novel photon echo techniques

S. A. Moiseev, M. I. Noskov

The novel variants of the photon echo technique for the storage and complete reconstruction of the quantum states of one and two photon fields are theoretically investigated. Such new possible schemes are proposed for two types of three-level macroscopic coherent media, where the specific spectral and temporal properties of the quantum dynamics are analyzed. Special physical analysis is devoted to the complete reconstruction of the mapped quantum states at the multipulse restoring, its spatial, temporal and spectral properties. The specific possibilities of the proposed schemes for the quantum computations are also discussed. (Summary only available)
