A study of the $\lambda$- and $N$-atomic configurations under dipolar interaction with $2$ modes of electromagnetic radiation is presented. The corresponding quantum phase diagrams are obtained by means of a variational procedure. Both…
An efficient $\lambda/2$-method ($\lambda$ is the resonant wavelength of laser radiation) based on nanometric-thickness cell filled with rubidium is implemented to study the splitting of hyperfine transitions of $^{85}$Rb and $^{87}$Rb…
We describe a novel technique for creating an artificial magnetic field for ultra-cold atoms using a periodically pulsed pair of counter propagating Raman lasers that drive transitions between a pair of internal atomic spin states: a…
Ultra-broadband long-period fiber grating with 10-dB bandwidth of 155 nm and 3-dB bandwidth of 415 nm is demonstrated around 1060 nm, which has been combined with a tunable ytterbium-doped fiber laser to generate optical doughnut beams in…
The superradiant laser, based on the clock transition between the electric ground state $^1$S$_0$ and the metastable state $^3$P$_0$ of fermionic alkaline-earth(-like) atoms, has been proposed to be a new promising light source with…
We discuss techniques for probing the effects of a constant force acting on cold atoms using two configurations of a grating echo-type atom interferometer. Laser-cooled samples of $^{85}$Rb with temperatures as low as 2.4 $\mu$K have been…
Nonlinear optical processes are strongly dominated by phase relationships among electromagnetic fields that are relevant to its optical process. In this paper, we theoretically and experimentally show, as a typical example, that in a…
The Smith Purcell effect, observed when an electron beam passes in the vicinity of a periodic structure, is a promising platform for the generation of electromagnetic radiation in previously-unreachable spectral ranges. However, most of the…
We introduce an atomic gravimetric sequence using Raman-type composite light pulses that excites a superposition of two momentum states with the same internal level. The scheme allows the suppression of common noise, making it less…
The interaction of a three level Rydberg atom of Lambda-type with a single mode optical field in far off-resonant and at large detuning regimes can be described by an effective degenerate Raman model, where the atomic state can be treated…
Raman spectroscopy uses light scattering to extract information on low-energy excitations of solids. The Raman process is described by diagrams which are fourth order in the light-matter interaction, and in particular the resonant…
IIn this paper we demonstrate a new scheme for Raman transitions which realize a symmetric momentum-space splitting of $4 \hbar k$, deflecting the atomic wave-packets into the same internal state. Combining the advantages of Raman and Bragg…
A holy grail of photonics research is the realization of a laser that uses a single quantum emitter as the gain medium. Such a device would exhibit a plethora of new features, including lasing without a well-defined threshold and output…
We propose to apply Ramsey's method of separated oscillating fields to the spectroscopy of the quantum states in the gravity potential above a vertical mirror. This method allows a precise measurement of quantum mechanical phaseshifts of a…
We present explicit expressions for Rayleigh and Raman scattering cross-sections and phase matrices of the ground $1s$ state hydrogen atom based on the Kramers-Heisenberg dispersion formula. The Rayleigh scattering leaves the hydrogen atom…
We report the Raman spectroscopy of 12C/13C graphene isotope superlattices synthesized by chemical vapour deposition. At large periods the Raman spectra corresponds to the sum of the bulk 12C and 13C contributions. However, at small periods…
We present results on a Raman laser-system that resonantly drives a closed two-photon transition between two levels in different hyperfine ground states of 87Rb. The coupler is based on a novel optical design for producing two…
We report on the implementation of degenerate Raman sideband cooling of $^{40}$K atoms. The scheme incorporates a 3D optical lattice, which confines the atoms and drives the Raman transitions. The optical cooling cycle is closed by two…
Graphite is a well-studied material with known electronic and optical properties. Graphene, on the other hand, which is just one layer of carbon atoms arranged in a hexagonal lattice, has been studied theoretically for quite some time but…
The Raman spectrum of plutonium dioxide is studied both experimentally and theoretically. Particular attention has been devoted to the identification of high-energy modes at $2120$ cm$^{-1}$ and $2625$ cm$^{-1}$, the attribution of which…
