Summary form only given. We have experimentally demonstrated that the two-photon probability amplitudes of photon pairs generated using spontaneous parametric down conversion from separate nonlinear crystals, under the conditions outlined above, remain independent and cannot be used to engineer more complex quantum states. The spontaneous nature of the down-conversion process prevents pairs of photons...
Summary form only given. A type-II phase-marched parametric downconverter can be used to produce polarization-entangled photon pairs. We propose a production scheme for polarization-entangled photon pairs by using a pair of optical parametric amplifiers (OPAs) whose narrowband generation rate is high enough to make it a practical source for a trapped-atom quantum memory. For a type-II system using...
Summary form only given. We report the observation of an interesting coherent effect, which looks very much like the so-called Zeeman coherence in atomic physics and is indeed an optically induced entanglement between two oppositely oriented electrons confined to one single QD. This is the first observation of entanglement in semiconductors and is an important step in realizing a quantum logic device...
Summary form only given. Exciting observations of ultra-slow group velocities and very large nonlinearities in coherently driven atomic media open up interesting prospectives for nonlinear optical processes at low light levels. Recent experiments, for instance, demonstrated that very efficient nonlinear phenomena can be induced by laser fields of tiny energies. These developments stimulate the studies...
