Moiseev | | Coherent control of low loss surface polaritons We propose fast all-optical control of surface polaritons by placing an electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) medium at an interface between two materials. EIT provides longitudinal compression and a slow group velocity, while matching properties of the two materials at the interface provides strong transverse confinement. In particular, we show that an EIT medium near the interface between a dielectric and a negative-index metamaterial can establish tight longitudinal and transverse confinement plus extreme slowing of surface polaritons while simultaneously avoiding losses.

Sanders | | Surface polariton-polariton induced transparency in left-handed materials We propose to control surface polariton (SP) propagation in left-handed materials. New spectral behaviour of SP propagation is demonstrated due to the spatial properties of interaction between the SP modes and three level atoms. University of Calgary | Presentation | 2008-07-14 | A. Kamli, S. Moiseev, B. C. Sanders | | Quantum memory for surface polaritons in metamaterialsUnlike conventional materials, negative index meta-materials (NIMM) support both electric and magnetic surface polariton (SP) modes that are spatially confined to the media interface with highly reduced losses. We study electromagnetically induced transparency(EIT) based quantum control of SP modes in metamaterial structure. Utilizing SP confinement,\r\nwe demonstrate the possibility of low loss surface polariton fields with very slow group velocity at EIT conditions. We discuss potential applications in quantum information and quantum memory of weak light fields. University of Calgary | Presentation | 2009-05-24 | A. Kamli, S. Moiseev, B. C.

C. Sanders | | Spectral tailoring of inhomogeneously broadened absorption profiles with notch-filtered lightManipulation of absorption spectra of inhomogeneously broadened media [1-3] has great importance for various spectroscopic investigations and quantum information processing applications [4]. In particular, the creation of narrow absorption lines on a non-absorbing background has attracted a lot of interest, as it allows the interaction of coherent light with selected subgroups of atomic and molecular centers. We propose a novel technique for the generation of such lines. This technique is based on optical pumping with incoherent, notch-filtered light that is provided from the back reflection of broad band light on a Fabry-Perot cavity. In this approach, all atoms in a large spectral interval, except some subgroups within narrow frequency ranges whose transition frequencies match the notch frequencies, are excited at the same time. Provided a suitable atomic shelving level exists, a sufficiently long interaction time results in a tailored absorption profile that consists of narrow absorption lines on a non-absorbing background. We will present the results of a theoretical analysis, and discuss possible experimental realizations of this technique with rare-earth-ion doped crystals at cryogenic temperatures.

Quantum repeater [1], based on sources of entangled photons, quantum memory, and
single and two qubit gates plus measurements, promise overcoming the distance barrier
of quantum communication protocols. We investigate extensions of a recent quantum
memory protocol based on controlled, reversible, inhomogeneous broadening (CRIB) [2-
5] for combining quantum state storage with transformation of the absorbed quantum
data. More precisely, we relax the symmetry requirement between inhomogeneous
broadening during quantum state absorption and recall, as required for perfectly timereversed
quantum dynamics. We will discuss possibilities for single qubit rotations based
on sequential rephrasing [3], and propose an experiment based on stimulated photon
echoes [4], which serves as a test-bed for the more efficient, CRIB based realization.
Other types of quantum (or classical) data transformation arise from asymmetry in the
rate of de-and rephasing, leading to data compression or decompression [5].
