Journal ArticleDOI
Light speed reduction to 17 metres per second in an ultracold atomic gas
Lene Vestergaard Hau,Lene Vestergaard Hau,Stephen E. Harris,Zachary Dutton,Zachary Dutton,Cyrus H. Behroozi,Cyrus H. Behroozi +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, an experimental demonstration of electromagnetically induced transparency in an ultracold gas of sodium atoms, in which the optical pulses propagate at twenty million times slower than the speed of light in a vacuum, is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Observation of coherent optical information storage in an atomic medium using halted light pulses
Chien Liu,Zachary Dutton,Zachary Dutton,Cyrus H. Behroozi,Lene Vestergaard Hau,Lene Vestergaard Hau +5 more
TL;DR: A theoretical model is presented that reveals that the system is self-adjusting to minimize dissipative loss during the ‘read’ and ‘write’ operations, anticipating applications of this phenomenon for quantum information processing.
Journal ArticleDOI
Observation of quantum shock waves created with ultra- compressed slow light pulses in a Bose-Einstein condensate.
Zachary Dutton,Michael Budde,Michael Budde,Christopher Brian Slowe,Lene Vestergaard Hau,Lene Vestergaard Hau +5 more
TL;DR: An extension of the slow light technique is used to provide a method for inducing small density defects in a Bose-Einstein condensate that evolve into large-amplitude sound waves and is presented an experimental observation and theoretical investigation of the resulting breakdown of superfluidity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Non-linear properties of chalcogenide glasses and fibers
Jasbinder S. Sanghera,Catalin Florea,Leslie Brandon Shaw,P.C. Pureza,V.Q. Nguyen,Mark Bashkansky,Zachary Dutton,Ishwar D. Aggarwal +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, anharmonic oscillator model, using the normalized photon energy, gives an excellent fit to the data over three orders of magnitude, and measured third order nonlinearities increase with the value of x, and are up to about 1000 times larger than silica for As 2 Se 3 glass.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rate-loss analysis of an efficient quantum repeater architecture
Saikat Guha,Hari Krovi,Christopher A. Fuchs,Zachary Dutton,Joshua A. Slater,Christoph Simon,Wolfgang Tittel +6 more
TL;DR: An entanglement-based quantum key distribution (QKD) architecture that uses a linear chain of quantum repeaters employing photon-pair sources, spectral-multiplexing, linear-optic Bell-state measurements, multi-mode quantum memories and classical-only error correction is analyzed.
