EIT decoherence sources in acetylene-filled hollow-core PCF

Abstract

We report a set of experimental observations of EIT in different pressure regimes throughout a ro-vibrational overtone-band of acetylene. An analysis of the contribution of both pressure-broadening and the fiber-core-wall on the coherence is given.

Electromagnetically-induced transparency grid in acetylene-filled hollow-core PCF

Fetah Benabid, P. S. Light, F. Couny +1 more

We report a set of experimental observations on electromagnetically induced transparency in acetylene filled hollow-core photonic crystal fiber, involving both Lambda-type and V-type interactions over several lines of the R-branch of the nu1 + nu3 ro-vibrational overtone band. Transparency as high as ~70% was achieved. A theoretical account of the sources of decoherence shows that collisions with the inner wall of the fiber core and laser frequency-jitter dominate the coherence decay.

We report detailed experimental and theoretical results comparing electromagnetically- induced-transparency obtained in V and Lambda configurations in acetylene-filled-hollow-core PCF. For the same experimental conditions, the EIT in V-scheme shows a stronger peak but larger linewidth.

Observation of the transient optical nutation effect in acetylene-filled hollow-core photonic crystal fibers

Manuel Ocegueda, Serguei I. Stepanov, Nayelli Casillas +1 more

Experimental results on the transient optical nutation effect inside an acetylene-filled hollow-core photonic crystal fiber (HC-PCF) are reported. The experiments used 15 ns optical pulses with peak powers up to 5 W. The light wavelength was centered at 1530.37 nm, which corresponds to the P9 acetylene (12C2H2) vibrational-rotational absorption line. The gas pressure inside the PCF, with hollow core diameter of ∼10.3 μm, was kept around 0.12 Torr. Comparison of the experimental data with numerical simulations using the Maxwell-Bloch equations allowed us to evaluate the characteristic longitudinal and transverse relaxation times around 10 ns, as well as the transition dipole moment (1.36 × 10−32 Cm).
