A theory is developed for steady-state single-mode lasing in coherent quantum-well cascade lasers. This laser model is an
example of a strictly quantum mechanical problem in which approximate kinetic approaches are not used to account for dissipative
scattering processes. Exact wave functions are found for the system in weak and strong electromagnetic fields, so that the
output power and frequency can be determined as functions of the coherent pump current and system parameters. It is shown
that for pumping by monoenergetic electrons the power has a nonlinear (root) dependence and tends to saturate in strong fields.
It is predicted that the coherent pumping efficiency may be increased by adjusting the energy of the pump electrons, which
will lead to a linear power dependence, a high efficiency, and low threshold currents. A population inversion is found not
be a necessary condition for lasing in the coherent laser. In particular, in the high field regime the population of the lower
level exceeds that of the upper, while in the optimally adjusted regime they are the same.

We investigate the ultrafast control of coherent population transfer in a Λ-type three-level system with a train of pump-Stokes femtosecond pulse pairs, where the pulse sequences can be produced either by optical delay line or by pulse shaping with sinusoidal phase modulation. It is shown that when the pump and Stokes pulses in each pair are applied in the counterintuitive order, similar to that in the stimulated Raman adiabatic passage technique, due to temporal quantum interference (besides optical interference in the case of overlapped subpulses), ultrafast control of coherent population transfer can be achieved by scanning the inter-pair time delay or by changing the sinusoidal phase modulation parameters. This method has potential applications in ultrafast control of chemical reactions and quantum information processing. 相似文献

It is demonstrated that one can measure the distribution of the transverse position of an atom crossing one or more optical cavities by monitoring the phase of the standing wave fields in the cavities. For the atom-field interaction the Kapitza-Dirac regime is assumed; it is shown that in this regime the method represents a quantum nondemolition measurement of the atomic position. On the other hand it can be applied to prepare narrow distributions of the transverse atomic position. In order to show this, a numerical simulation is performed, which illustrates the collapse of a broad initial Gaussian wavepacket, which can be coherent or incoherent, to a distribution with narrow peaks. Preparing the cavity fields in a squeezed state, one can greatly enhance the impact of the cavity field measurements on the atomic density matrix. 相似文献

A theory of optical solitons under the condition of nonlinear coherent interaction of surface TM-modes with a layer of inhomogeneously broadened semiconductor quantum dots is developed. Explicit analytical expressions for a surface soliton (2π-pulse) in the presence of single and biexciton transitions are obtained in the regime of self-induced transparency with realistic parameters which can be reached in current experiments. 相似文献

We investigate the entanglement of an open tripartite
system where a cavity field mode in thermal equilibrium is
off-resonantly coupled with two atoms that are simultaneously driven
by a resonant coherent field. For moderately detuned atom-field
coupling and strong atomic driving we show the generation, at given
interaction times and for low enough cavity decay rates, of atomic
Bell states and of Bell state superpositions relevant for quantum
gates implementation. The system can oscillate between bi-separable
and fully separable states. Also we describe the distribution of
quantum correlations between the atom-atom and the two atom-field
subsystems. In the dispersive coupling regime with strongly driven
atoms we show the generation of nearly stationary Bell states which
remain protected from cavity dissipation. 相似文献

Based on the Born-Oppenhemer approximation, the concept of adiabatic quantum entanglement is introduced to account for quantum
decoherence of a quantum system due to its interaction with a large system of one or a few degrees of freedom. In the adiabatic
limit, it is shown that the wave function of the total system formed by the quantum system plus the large system can be factorized
as an entangled state with correlation between adiabatic quantum states and quasi-classical motion configurations of the large
system. In association with a novel viewpoint about quantum measurement, which has been directly verified by most recent experiments
[e.g., S. Durr et al., Nature 33, 359 (1998)], it is shown that the adiabatic entanglement is indeed responsible for the quantum decoherence and thus can
be regarded as a “clean” quantum measurement when the large system behaves as a classical object. By taking the large system
respectively to be a macroscopically distinguishable spatial variable, a high spin system and a harmonic oscillator with a
coherent initial state, three illustrations are presented with their explicit solutions in this paper.

We have observed coherent oscillations in a multilevel quantum system, formed by a current-biased dc SQUID. These oscillations have been induced by applying resonant microwave pulses of flux. Quantum measurement is performed by a nanosecond flux pulse that projects the final state onto one of two different voltage states of the dc SQUID, which can be read out. The number of quantum states involved in the coherent oscillations increases with increasing microwave power. The dependence of the oscillation frequency on microwave power deviates strongly from the linear regime expected for a two-level system and can be very well explained by a theoretical model taking into account the anharmonicity of the multilevel system. 相似文献

The dynamics of the population imbalance of bosons in a double-well potential is investigated from the point of view of many-body
quantum mechanics in the framework of the two-mode
model.
For small initial population imbalances, coherent superpositions of almost equally spaced
energy eigenstates lead to Josephson oscillations. The suppression of tunneling at population imbalances beyond a critical
value is related to a high concentration of initial state population in the region of the energy spectrum with quasi-degenerate
doublets. Negligible coherences among adjacent doublets result in imbalance oscillations with a very small amplitude. For
unaccessible long times, however, the system recovers the regime of Josephson oscillations. 相似文献

We investigate theoretically the magneto-optical rotation in cavity QED system with atomic Zeeman coherence, which is established via coherent population trapping. Owing to Zeeman coherence, the ultranarrow transmission spectrum less than 1 MHz with gain can be achieved with a flat-top Faraday rotation angle. By controlling the parameters appropriately, the input probe components within the flat-top regime rotate with almost the same angle, and transmit through the cavity perpendicularly to the other components outside the flat-top regime. The concepts discussed here provide an important tool for perfect ultranarrow Faraday optical filter and quantum information processing. 相似文献

We propose a flexible way to significantly enhance population transfer efficiency with a train of time-separated pump-Stokes pulse pairs when the non-adiabatic coupling between two degenerate adiabatic states exists in a double Λ-type four-level system, where the pump and Stokes pulses in each pair can be applied in either counterintuitive or intuitive order. It is shown that the needed Rabi frequency for achieving complete population transfer can be reduced dramatically with the increase of number of pump-Stokes pulse pairs, which results from temporal constructive quantum interference between the sequential transitions and subsequent coherent accumulation; moreover, an arbitrary coherent superposition between the two lower states can be realized by suitably tuning the Rabi frequency and the time delay between each pump-Stokes pair. The method may find applications in control of chemical reactions, quantum optics, and quantum information processing. 相似文献

We study the propagation of two quantized optical fields via considering the collective effects of photonic emissions and excitations of a three-level cyclic-type system (such as atomic ensemble with symmetry broken, or the chiral molecular gases, or manual “atomic” array with symmetry broken), where the quantum transitions is driven by two quantized fields and a classical one. The results show that the parametric conversion and maximally entangled photon pair generation can be achieved by means of the collective excitation of the two upper energy levels induced by the classic optical field. This investigation may be used for the generated coherent short-wavelength quantum radiation and quantum information processing. 相似文献

We propose a scheme for long-distance quantum state transfer between different atoms based on cavity-assisted interactions. In our scheme, a coherent optical pulse sequentially interacts with two distant atoms trapped in separated cavities. Through the measurement of the state of the first atom and the homodyne detection of the final output coherent light, the quantum state can be transferred into the second atom with a success probability of unity and a fidelity of unity. In addition, our scheme neither requires the high-Q cavity working in the strong coupling regime nor employs the single-photon quantum channel, which greatly relaxes the experimental requirements. 相似文献

We carried out theoretical investigation about velocity-selective atomic excitation on long-lived (metastable) levels of an atomic vapour in a thin cell by a monochromatic laser beam, running in the normal direction. The regime of coherent Rabi oscillations is considered on the light-induced transition from a sublevel of the ground quantum term to a metastable atomic level. On the basis of density matrix equations for the two-level system, we analysed the atomic population density of the metastable level, when the sample is irradiated by resonant monochromatic laser beam with an annular cross-section versus atomic velocities and versus the detuning, the amplitude, and the geometry of the laser beam. It is shown that, in the centre of the annular region, it can be obtained a population distribution on the metastable level as a function of the laser detuning, characterized by a sharp narrow resonance profile, whose width is reduced with respect to the thermal Doppler width roughly by the ratio between the diameter of the irradiated region and the inner thickness of the cell. We suggest high-sensitive schemes, in order to detect these sub-Doppler resonances, by probing the population of the metastable state with a second laser beam, resonant with a transition leaving from the metastable level. The case of 1S0 → 3P1 spin-forbidden transition of Ca is discussed in more detail 相似文献

Waveguide regimes of nonlinear-optical interactions allow a reduction of quantum noise in spectra of coherent Raman scattering (CRS). We will find the optimal waveguide length providing the maximum quantum limit for the signal-to-noise ratio in waveguide CRS and assess this ratio for laser intensities right below the optical breakdown threshold. This analysis shows that the quantum-limit signal-to-noise ratio of coherent femtosecond CRS spectroscopy of the gas phase can be increased in the waveguide regime by more than four orders of magnitude relative to the regime of tight focusing. 相似文献

In the present work, we have investigated tunneling dynamics of superfluid Fermi gas in a
double-well potential in deep BEC regime and in the unitarity regime by adjusting the
scattering length or the interaction parameter y. The scattering length
a
sc
or y could affect the
quantum transition dramatically. At certain regime, the complete population transfer
between two modes can be obtained. However, at some other regimes, the quantum transition

We present the quantum statistical properties of the light produced by a degenerate three-level cascade laser with the cavity mode driven by coherent light. In this system three-level atoms in a cascade configuration, initially prepared in a coherent superposition of the top and bottom levels, are injected into a cavity coupled a vacuum reservoir. We find that although the driving coherent light has no effect on the degree of squeezing, it increases the mean photon number considerably. Therefore, this quantum optical system can be taken as a source of a bright squeezed light. 相似文献

We theoretically investigate the coherent enhancement of resonant two-photon transitions (TPT) in a three-level atomic system. The TPT can be coherently enhanced by modulating spectral amplitude due to eliminating the destructive interference, though partial laser energy losses. Maximal enhancement of TPT can be achieved by modulating spectral phase due to establishing completely constructive interference. Our research provides a theoretical basis for experimental investigation and appears to have potential application on coherent control in the complicated quantum system. 相似文献

We investigate quantum interferences in coherent population trapping of a cold double Λ-type four-level atomic system driven by two counterpropagating laser fields. We study both decoherence and enhanced-coherence actions resulting from the multi-transition pathways in building up the trapping state, and analyze the system operating with and without external coherences in various configurations of the atomic dipole moments. 相似文献
