Electromagnetically induced transparency in inhomogeneously broadened Lambda-transition with multiple excited levels
Electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) has mainly been modelled for
three-level systems. In particular, a considerable interest has been dedicated
to the Lambda-configuration, with two ground states and one excited state.
However, in the alkali-metal atoms, which are commonly used, hyperfine
interaction in the excited state introduces several levels which simultaneously
participate in the scattering process. When the Doppler broadening is
comparable with the hyperfine splitting in the upper state, the three-level
Lambda model does not reproduce the experimental results. Here we theoretically
investigate the EIT in a hot vapor of alkali-metal atoms and demonstrate that
it can be strongly reduced due to the presence of multiple excited levels.
Given this model, we also show that a well-designed optical pumping enables to
significantly recover the transparency
High frequency polarization switching of a thin ferroelectric film
We consider both experimentally and analytically the transient oscillatory
process that arises when a rapid change in voltage is applied to a
ferroelectric thin film deposited on an substrate.
High frequency () polarization oscillations are observed
in the ferroelectric sample. These can be understood using a simple
field-polarization model. In particular we obtain analytic expressions for the
oscillation frequency and the decay time of the polarization fluctuation in
terms of the material parameters. These estimations agree well with the
experimental results
Quantum memory for light via stimulated off-resonant Raman process: beyond the three-level Lambda-scheme approximation
We consider a quantum memory scheme based on the conversion of a signal pulse
into a long-lived spin coherence via stimulated off-resonant Raman process. For
a storing medium consisting of alkali atoms, we have calculated the
Autler-Townes resonance structure created by a strong control field. By taking
into account the upper hyperfine states of the D1 optical transition, we show
important deviations from the predictions of the usual three-level
Lambda-scheme approximation and we demonstrate an enhancement of the process
for particular detunings of the control. We estimate the memory efficiency one
can obtain using this configuration.Comment: 8 pages, 6 figure
Ferroelectric Nanotubes
We report the independent invention of ferroelectric nanotubes from groups in
several countries. Devices have been made with three different materials: lead
zirconate-titanate PbZr1-xTixO3 (PZT); barium titanate BaTiO3; and strontium
bismuth tantalate SrBi2Ta2O9 (SBT). Several different deposition techniques
have been used successfully, including misted CSD (chemical solution
deposition) and pore wetting. Ferroelectric hysteresis and high optical
nonlinearity have been demonstrated. The structures are analyzed via SEM, TEM,
XRD, AFM (piezo-mode), and SHG. Applications to trenching in Si dynamic random
access memories, ink-jet printers, and photonic devices are discussed.
Ferroelectric filled pores as small as 20 nm in diameter have been studied
