We describe an ion-based cavity-QED system in which the internal dynamics of an atom is coupled to the modes of an optical cavity by vacuum-stimulated Raman transitions. We observe Raman spectra for different excitation polarizations and…
Raman spectroscopy is an important tool in the study of vibrational properties and composition of molecules, peptides and even proteins. Raman spectra can be simulated based on the change of the electronic polarizability with vibrations,…
A theory of pump-probe spectroscopy is developed in which optical fields drive two-quantum, Raman-like transitions between ground state sublevels. Three fields are incident on an ensemble of atoms. Two of the fields act as the pump field…
Point-contact spectroscopy was originally developed for the determination of the electron-phonon spectral function in normal metals. However, in the past 20 years it has become an important tool in the investigation of superconductors. As a…
Spontaneous Raman scattering (SpRS) is a weak non-linear effect, particularly relevant to classical-quantum coexistence transmission and sensing applications. In classical transmission, the relevant Raman effect is stimulated Raman…
We present a microscopic theory of Raman scattering by a two-dimensional Fermi liquid (FL) with Rashba and Dresselhaus types of spin-orbit coupling, and subject to an in-plane magnetic field (B). In the long-wavelength limit, the Raman…
We propose an interferometric method to probe pair correlations in a gas of spin-1/2 fermions. The method consists of a Ramsey sequence where both spin states of the Fermi gas are set in a superposition of a state at rest and a state with a…

We suggest pump-probe spectroscopy to study pair correlations that determine the many-body dynamics in weakly interacting, dilute ultracold gases. A suitably chosen, short laser pulse depletes the pair density locally, creating a 'hole' in…
