Electromagnetically induced transparency : Optics in coherent media

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors consider the atomic dynamics and the optical response of the medium to a continuous-wave laser and show how coherently prepared media can be used to improve frequency conversion in nonlinear optical mixing experiments.
Journal ArticleDOI

Light speed reduction to 17 metres per second in an ultracold atomic gas

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

Quantum Information with Continuous Variables

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present the Deutsch-Jozsa algorithm for continuous variables, and a deterministic version of it is used for quantum information processing with continuous variables.
Journal ArticleDOI

Observation of coherent optical information storage in an atomic medium using halted light pulses

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.

Hybrid quantum circuits: Superconducting circuits interacting with other quantum systems

TL;DR: Hybrid quantum circuits combine two or more physical systems, with the goal of harnessing the advantages and strengths of the different systems in order to better explore new phenomena and potentially bring about novel quantum technologies as discussed by the authors.
