Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Control of atomic motion with resonant laser light is the most interesting field of research which is rapidly expanding. The book discusses the latest theoretical and experimental achievements in the study of these phenomena. The fundamental questions of the theory of resonant light pressure are given in the book. They are: 1. Optical Stern-Gerlach Effect and Quantization of Atomic Motion in a Light Field; 2. Theory of Light Pressure Force and Atomic Kinetics in a Strong Field; 3. Diffraction and Interference of Atoms; 4. Velocity Bunching Effect, Cooling and Localization of Atoms in Light Field, and 5. Polarization Phenomena and Recoil Effect. The most important experiments are also discussed in this book. While the book may be used to get a primary acquaintance with the subject, specialists will also find the latest theoretical and experimental results and achievements in this field discussed here.

Book excerpt: Spin angular momentum of photons and the associated polarization of light has been known for many years. However, it is only over the last decade or so that physically realizable laboratory light beams have been used to study the orbital angular momentum of light. In many respects, orbital and spin angular momentum behave in a similar manner, but they differ significantly in others. In particular, orbital angular momentum offers exciting new possibilities with respect to the optical manipulation of matter and to the study of the entanglement of photons. Bringing together 44 landmark papers, Optical Angular Momentum offers the first comprehensive overview of the subject as it has developed. It chronicles the first decade of this important subject and gives a definitive statement of the current status of all aspects of optical angular momentum. In each chapter the editors include a concise introduction, putting the selected papers into context and outlining the key articles associated with this aspect of the subject.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this thesis the Collective Atomic Recoil Laser (CARL) model of Bonifacio et al., which described CARL by two-level atoms, is extended to describe three-level atoms with ladder and ᴧ energy level configurations. It is shown that, in contrast to the case of two-level atoms where the CARL instability is quenched at high pump rates with significant atomic excitation, CARL instabilities involving 3-level atoms can persist at high pump rates due to transitions between the populated states being dipole forbidden. It is also demonstrated for the ladder configuration that, when the system is operated in the two-photon superfluorescent regime,introduction of centre of mass motion and atomic bunching result in symmetry breaking in the sign of detuning from field-atom resonance. CARL instabilities involving three-level atoms with ᴧ energy level configurations are investigated for two distinct cases : in the first the two ground states are degenerate, whereas in the second the ground states are non-degenerate. It is demonstrated that in the degenerate case, it is possible to decouple the atomic centre of mass motion from the internal atomic degrees of freedom. It is also demonstrated that for the non-degenerate case it is possible for the the atomic motion to be decoupled from the atomic coherence but not the atomic population. The population difference remains constant throughout the interaction, so the population inversion acts as a parameter in the equation for the force experienced by the atoms. Consequently,for both the degenerate and non-degenerate ᴧ configurations, CARL instabilities can occur at higher pump intensities than for the case of two-level atoms.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report presents an account of the course "Nonlinear Spectroscopy of Solids: Advances and Applications" held in Erice, Italy, from June 16 to 30, 1993. This meeting was organized by the International School of Atomic and Molecular Spectroscopy of the "Ettore Majorana" Centre for Scientific Culture. The purpose of this course was to present and discuss physical models, mathematical formalisms, experimental techniques, and applications relevant to the subject of nonlinear spectroscopy of solid state materials. The universal availability and application of lasers in spectroscopy has led to the widespread observation of nonlinear effects in the spectroscopy of materials. Nonlinear spectroscopy encompasses many physical phenomena which have their origin in the monochromaticity, spectral brightness, coherence, power density and tunability of laser sources. Conventional spectroscopy assumes a linear dependence between the applied electromagnetic field and the induced polarization of atoms and molecules. The validity of this assumption rests on the fact that even the most powerful conventional sources of light produce a light intensity which is not strong enough to equalize the rate of stimulated emission and that of the experimentally observed decay. A different situation may arise when laser light sources are used, particularly pulsed lasers. The use of such light sources can make the probability of induced emission comparable to, or even greater than, the probability of the observed decay; in such cases the nonlinearity of the response of the system is revealed by the experimental data and new properties, not detectable by conventional spectroscopy, will emerge.

Book excerpt: Laser cooling is an important emerging technology in such areas as the cooling of semiconductors. The book examines and suggests solutions for a range of problems in the development of miniature solid-state laser refrigerators, self-cooling solid-state lasers and optical echo-processors. It begins by looking at the basic theory of laser cooling before considering such topics as self-cooling of active elements of solid-state lasers, laser cooling of solid-state information media of optical echo-processors, and problems of cooling solid-state quantum processors.Laser Cooling of Solids is an important contribution to the development of compact laser-powered cryogenic refrigerators, both for the academic community and those in the microelectronics and other industries. Provides a timely review of this promising field of research and discusses the fundamentals and theory of laser cooling Particular attention is given to the physics of cooling processes and the mathematical description of these processes Reviews previous experimental investigations in laser cooling and presents progress towards key potential applications
Download or read book Quantum Nonlinear Optics Using Cold Atomic Ensembles written by Thibault Michel Max Peyronel and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fundamental properties of light derive from its constituent particles, photons, which are massless and do no interact with each other. The realization of interactions between photons could enable a wide variety of scientific and engineering applications. In particular, coherent interactions would open the path for the simulation of quantum systems with light. Photon-photon interactions can be mediated by matter, in our case cold atomic ensembles, which provide a nonlinear medium. In conventional nonlinear media, the nonlinearities are negligibly weak at intensities corresponding to single photons and nonlinear optics at the few-photon level is a long-standing goal of optical and quantum science. In this thesis, we report on two different experimental approaches to create optical media with giant nonlinearities. Both approaches rely on Electromagnetically Induced Transparency, in which photons traveling in the medium are best described as part-matter part-light quantum particles, called polaritons. In our first approach, we achieve low-light nonlinearities by loading ensembles of cold atoms in a hollow-core photonic crystal fiber to enhance the polariton-photon interactions. In our second approach, the photons are coupled to strongly interacting Rydberg atoms, which mediate large interactions between single quanta of light. Moreover, the intrinsic nature of these interactions can be tailored to take on a coherent dispersive form.
