Slow-light-based delayed quantum coherent control for all-optical information processing

Abstract

We have observed delayed nondegenerate four-wave mixing processes based on slow light. The delayed observation has potential to all-optical buffered switches and routers in all- optical information processing.

Observations of delayed all-optical routing in a slow-light regime

Byoung Seung HAM

We report the observation of a delayed all-optical routing using an ultraslow-light phenomenon in a defected solid medium. Unlike simultaneously enhanced slow-light-based four-wave mixing processes, the present observation demonstrates on-demand delayed all-optical routing via the direct retrieval of atomic coherence strongly coupled with the slow light.

Dynamic quantum information processing based on quantum coherent control

Byoung Seung HAM

A light stop and retrieval phenomenon, which is a simple extension of coherence transfer from two-photon to one-photon via resonant Raman interactions and nondegenerate four-wave mixing processes, is analyzed for dynamic quantum information processing.

Both optically and electrically controllable slow and superluminal light are demonstrated via four-wave mixing in semiconductor optical amplifiers. Tunable delays up to 1.2 ns are achieved for 0.5 GHz, corresponding to a RF phase change of 1.2 p.

We have observed a very clean slow light effect and matched pulse propagation in nondegenerate four-wave mixing in hot atomic vapor. Locking between probe and conjugate pulses gives some insight in the nonlinear dynamics.

Slow-to-fast light using absorption to gain switching in quantum-well semiconductor optical amplifier

Piotr Konrad Kondratko, S. L. Chuang

Room temperature quantum-well semiconductor optical amplifier with large input power is utilized in both the absorption and gain regime as an optical group delay and advance (slow and fast light), respectively. Material resonance created by coherent population oscillation and four wave mixing is tuned by electrical injection current, which in turn controls the speed of light. The four-wave mixing and population oscillation model explains the slow-to-fast light switching. Experimentally, the scheme achieves 200 degrees phase shift at 1 GHz, which corresponds to 0.56 delay-bandwidth product. The device presents a feasible building block of a multi-bit optical buffer system.
