2. 1. Investigations of Issues Relevant to the Application of Photon Echoes in Information Technology

   Author : Ulf Elman; Atomfysik; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; nonlinear optics; fibre amplifier; Boolean operation; rare earth metals; Atom- och molekylärfysik; Atomic and molecular physics; optical processing; photon echo; optical storage; Fysicumarkivet A:1998:Elman;

   Abstract : Photon echoes have been studied both experimentally and theoretically, with the main part of the work centred around the concept of using photon echoes for all-optical data storage and processing. The four basic Boolean operators, AND, OR, NOT and XOR have been experimentally demonstrated using photon echoes. READ MORE

4. 2. Optical Memories and Processing in Time- and Frequency Domain

   Author : Baozhu Luo; Atomfysik; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Optical storage; photon echo; spectral hole burning; nonlinear optics; fiber amplifier; logical operation; phase retrieval; polarization holographic recording and retrieval; optical processing; Atomic and molecular physics; Atom- och molekylärfysik; Fysicumarkivet A:1998:Luo;

   Abstract : Spectral hole burning and photon echoes are the techniques for frequency-selective optical memories, which have the potential to increase areal data storage density by a factor 10**7. They also have the capability to perform in-memory data processing. READ MORE

5. 3. Quantum Optics and Quantum Information Processing in Rare-Earth-Ion-Doped Crystals

   Abstract : An efficient transfer of energy in molecular systems has proven to be of fundamental importance both in nature and industrial applications. The ability of molecules to work together forming collective excitations, so-called excitons, plays a key role in for example the extraordinary fast energy transfer involved in the first steps of photosynthesis.
