Manipulate retrieval of stored light pulses

Abstract

We have experimentally demonstrated that the width, frequency, and polarization of stored light pulses can be manipulated by controlling the retrieval process. The manipulation of stored light pulses may facilitate the application of optical communications.

Manipulating the retrieved width of stored light pulses

We have systematically studied the method proposed by Patnaik et al. [Phys. Rev. A 69, 035803 (2004)] that manipulates the retrieval of stored light pulses. The measured probe pulse width of the retrieval is inversely proportional to the intensity of the reading field. We also show that the method does not introduce any phase shift or jump into the retrieved pulses. Our study demonstrates that the distortion at the output of the light storage can be corrected by manipulating the retrieval process and the phase information of the stored pulses can remain intact during the process.

Manipulating the retrieved frequency and polarization of stored light pulses

Yong‐Fan Chen, Pei-Chen Kuan, Shih-Hao Wang +2 more

We have experimentally demonstrated that stored and retrieved light pulses have different frequencies but maintain phase coherence; a stored light pulse is released with a different polarization. However, the manipulation process causes an energy loss of the retrieved pulse. We have discovered that Clebsch-Gordan coefficients among the Zeeman sublevels play an important role in the energy loss and have demonstrated a solution for avoiding the energy loss.

Manipulating light pulses with photorefractive crystals

Alexander N. Shumelyuk, S. Odoulov, Boris I. Sturman +2 more

We show theoretically and experimentally that the photorefractive nonlinearity possesses a big potential for manipulating light pulses, including their slowing down, long term storage and release on demand. Particular examples are considered.
