all-optical micro-transistor (2007)

Sajeev John, Marian Florescu

We describe all-optical transistor action in photonic bandgap (PBG) materials doped with active atoms and analyse the advantages of this system over other all-optical transistor proposals. In the...

Exploiting the quantum Zeno effect to beat photon loss in linear optical quantum information processors (2004)

Spedalieri, Federico M., Lee, Hwang, Florescu, Marian, Kapale, Kishore T., Yurtsever, Ulvi, Dowling, Jonathan P.

We devise a new technique to enhance transmission of quantum information through linear optical quantum information processors. The idea is based on applying the Quantum Zeno effect to the process of...

Single photons on demand from 3D photonic band-gap structures (2002)

Florescu, Marian, Scheel, Stefan, Haeffner, Hartmut, Lee, Hwang, Strekalov, Dmitry V., Knight, Peter L., ...

We describe a practical implementation of a (semi-deterministic) photon gun based on stimulated Raman adiabatic passage pumping and the strong enhancement of the photonic density of states in a...
