Efficient spectral hole-burning and atomic frequency comb storage in Nd(3+):YLiF4.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: We present spectral hole-burning measurements of the (4)I9/2 → (4)F3/2 transition in Nd(3+):YLiF4. The isotope shifts of Nd(3+) can be directly resolved in the optical absorption spectrum. We report atomic frequency comb storage with an echo efficiency of up to 35% and a memory bandwidth of 60 MHz in this material. The interesting properties show the potential of this material for use in both quantum and classical information processing.
