Frequency Conversion Based on Light Storage in Pr:YSO Crystal

Abstract

The authors experimentally demonstrated the optical information transfer between two frequencies channels based on electromagnetically induced transparency(EIT) in a four level double lambda system in Pr∶YSO crystal.Under the conditions of EIT,a weak probe pulse is slowed during the propagation in the crystal.A group velocity of 86 m/s is observed experimentally.By adiabatically switching off the control field,most of the probe pulse is stored in the sample.By switching on two control fields(with distinct frequencies and direction) in the release process,the stored optical information is distributed into two spatially-separated channels from the original slow light pulse with a single channel.By adjusting the two control fields in the release process,the information of slowed light pulse can be converted between the frequencies channels.

Optical information transfer between two light channels in a Pr^3+:Y_2SiO_5crystal

Hai-Hua Wang, Xiaogang Wei, Lei Wang +6 more

We experimentally demonstrate light storage and release in a four-level double-lambda atomic system of a Pr (3+):Y(2)SiO(5) crystal. Based on the technique of light storage, we realize optical information transfer between two light channels. The coherent optical information of a probe pulse stored in the crystal can be selectively released into two different light channels by varying the frequency and propagation direction of the switch-on control field.

Generation and storage of double slow light pulses in a solid

Yun-Fei Fan, Hai-Hua Wang, Rong Wang +5 more

We experimentally study the generation and storage of double slow light pulses in a Pr 3+ :Y 2 SiO 5 crystal. Under electromagnetically induced transparency, a single signal pulse is stored in the spin coherence of the crystal. By simultaneously switching on two control fields to recall the stored information, the spin coherence is converted into two slow light pulses with distinct frequencies. Furthermore, the storage and controlled retrieval of double slow light pulses are obtained by manipulating the control fields. This study of double slow light pulses may have practical applications in information processing and all-optical networks.

Transfer of orbital angular momentum of light using electromagnetically induced transparency

Hai-Hua Wang, Jing Wang, Zhi‐Hui Kang +4 more

We experimentally investigate the transfer of orbital angular momentum (OAM) of light in a solid driven by electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT). Under the condition of dynamical EIT, the OAM of the probe pulse is stored and retrieved in the experimental medium. By using a four-level double-lambda system to control the retrieval process of EIT storage, we show that OAM can be transferred from the probe field or the second control field to the newly generated signal field, which has a new spatial-frequency mode compared with the input mode. Furthermore, we use EIT-based four-wave mixing to investigate the direct OAM transfer without experiencing the storage, where we do not need to switch off and back on the control field.

Three-channel all-optical routing in a Pr^3+:Y_2SiO_5 crystal

Hai-Hua Wang, Yun-Fei Fan, Rong Wang +6 more

We experimentally demonstrate a three-channel all-optical routing based on light storage in a Pr(3+):Y(2)SiO(5) crystal. By switching off the control field under the condition of electromagnetically induced transparency, the optical information of the probe light pulse can be stored in the crystal. When three retrieve control fields are switched on in the release process, the stored optical information from one light channel can be transferred (or distributed) into three different light channels. Also we show that this all-optical routing can be time-delayed. Such a multichannel all-optical routing in solids may have practical applications in quantum information and all-optical network.
