Abstract

We develop a theoretical model for cavity-enhanced atomic frequency comb quantum memory and show how including the dispersion effect leads to better agreement of the reflectivity of the cavity and memory efficiency with the experiment.

Towards a Realistic Model for Cavity-Enhanced Atomic Frequency Comb Quantum Memories

Shahrzad Taherizadegan, Jacob H. Davidson, Sourabh Kumar +2 more

Atomic frequency comb (AFC) quantum memory is a favorable protocol in long distance quantum communication. Putting the AFC inside an asymmetric optical cavity enhances the storage efficiency but makes the measurement of the comb properties challenging. We develop a theoretical model for cavity-enhanced AFC quantum memory that includes the effects of dispersion, and show a close alignment of the model with our own experimental results. Providing semi quantitative agreement for estimating the efficiency and a good description of how the efficiency changes as a function of detuning, it also captures certain qualitative features of the experimental reflectivity. For comparison, we show that a theoretical model without dispersion fails dramatically to predict the correct efficiencies. Our model is a step forward to accurately estimating the created comb properties, such as the optical depth inside the cavity, and so being able to make precise predictions of the performance of the prepared cavity-enhanced AFC quantum memory.

Maps of Broadband Quantum Memory Based on an Atomic Frequency Comb

Арсланов Наркис Мусавирович, Sergey A. Moiseev

Abstract The influence of the parameters of an inhomogeneously broadened optical transition in the shape of an atomic frequency comb on dispersion effects in the quantum-memory protocol implemented in such an atomic system is investigated. The results allowed maps to be constructed of dispersion and quantum efficiency for implementation of the studied protocol in rare-earth-doped crystals that are promising for creation of a quantum repeater.
