We demonstrate four wave mixing and electromagnetically induced transparency mediated storage of multimode transverse images carried by optical pulses in hot atomic Rubidium vapor and show that the images retrieved are robust to diffusion.

Light storage in an optically thick atomic ensemble under conditions of electromagnetically induced transparency and four-wave mixing

Nathaniel B. Phillips, Alexey Vyacheslavovich Gorshkov, Irina V. Novikova

We study the modification of a traditional electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) stored-light technique that includes both EIT and four-wave mixing (FWM) in an ensemble of hot Rb atoms. The standard treatment of light storage involves the coherent and reversible mapping of one photonic mode onto a collective spin coherence. It has been shown that unwanted, competing processes such as four-wave mixing are enhanced by EIT and can significantly modify the signal optical pulse propagation. We present theoretical and experimental evidence to indicate that, while a Stokes field is indeed detected upon retrieval of the signal field, any information originally encoded in a seeded Stokes field is not independently preserved during the storage process. We present a simple model that describes the propagation dynamics of the fields and the impact of FWM on the spin wave.

Slow light propagation and amplification via electromagnetically induced transparency and four-wave mixing in an optically dense atomic vapor

Nathaniel B. Phillips, Alexey Vyacheslavovich Gorshkov, Irina V. Novikova

We experimentally and theoretically analyze the propagation of weak-signal field pulses under the conditions of electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) in hot Rb vapor, and study the effects of resonant four-wave mixing (FWM). In particular, we demonstrate that in a double-Λ system, formed by the strong control field with the weak resonant signal and a far-detuned Stokes field, both continuous-wave spectra and pulse propagation dynamics for the signal field depend strongly on the amplitude of the seeded Stokes field, and the effect is enhanced in optically dense atomic medium. We also show that the theory describing the coupled propagation of the signal and Stokes fields is in good agreement with the experimental observations.
