The McCall–Hahn area theorem for a photon echo in an optically dense medium is generalized in light of an absorption line consisting of several spectrally unresolved optical transitions and characterized by symmetrical form. Certain theoretical results are compared to experimental data obtained for a photon echo in a Tm 3+ :Y 3 Al 5 O 12 crystal.

Photon echoes in optically dense media

Sergey A. Moiseev, Mahmood Sabooni, Ravil V. Urmancheev

The authors derive analytical expressions for secondary echoes formed under the two-pulse excitation of the optically dense media developing McCall-Hahn area theorem for echo effects. They find that a series of self-reviving echo signals with a total area of 2$\ensuremath{\pi}$ or 0$\ensuremath{\pi}$ is excited and propagates deep in the media demonstrating strong non-linear nature of light-matter interaction at small changes of second pulse area. The pulse area approach paves the way for precise coherent spectroscopy, the study of different photon echoes and quantum control of light pulses in the optically dense media.

Photon/spin echo in a Fabry–Perot cavity

S. A. Moiseev, R. V. Urmancheev

The pulse area theorem is a well-known versatile analytical tool for capturing the general nonlinear nature of light propagation in a two-level medium. Here we derive the pulse area theorem for the photon/spin echo signal generated in a one-side cavity. The obtained analytical solutions for primary and secondary echo pulse areas allow us to describe the nonlinear patterns of the photon/spin echo signals in an atomic ensemble in a cavity. The developed approach and the obtained results constitute an important step in the study of the general properties of the photon/spin echo in optical and microwave cavities expanding applications of the photon echo in coherent spectroscopy, quantum memory, and processing.
