We experimentally demonstrate dressed multi-wave mixing (MWM) and the reflection of the probe beam due to electromagnetically induced absorption (EIA) grating can coexist in a five-level atomic ensemble. The reflection is derived from the photonic band gap (PBG) of EIA grating, which is much broader than the PBG of EIT grating. Therefore, EIA-type PBG can reflect more energy from probe than EIT-type PBG does, which can effectively affect the MWM signal. The EIA-type as well as EIT-type PBG can be controlled by multiple parameters including the frequency detunings, propagation angles and powers of the involved light fields. Also, the EIA-type PBG by considering both the linear and third-order nonlinear refractive indices is also investigated. The theoretical analysis agrees well with the experimental results. This investigation has potential applications in all-optical communication and information processing.

Since thin-film silicon solar cells have limited optical absorption, we explore the effect of a nanostructured back reflector to recycle the unabsorbed light. As a back reflector we investigate a 3D photonic band gap crystal made from silicon that is
readily integrated with the thin films. We numerically obtain the optical properties by solving the 3D time-harmonic Maxwell equations using the finite-element method, and model silicon with experimentally determined optical constants. The absorption enhancement relevant for photovoltaics is obtained by weighting the absorption spectra with the AM 1.5 standard solar spectrum. We study thin films either thicker ($L_{Si} = 2400$ nm) or much thinner ($L_{Si} = 80$ nm) than the wavelength of light. At $L_{Si} = 2400$ nm, the 3D photonic band gap crystal enhances the spectrally averaged ($lambda = 680$ nm to $880$ nm) silicon absorption by $2.22$x (s-pol.) to $2.45$x (p-pol.), which exceeds the enhancement of a perfect metal back reflector ($1.47$ to $1.56$x). The absorption is enhanced by the (i) broadband angle and polarization-independent reflectivity in the 3D photonic band gap, and (ii) the excitation of many guided modes in the film by the crystals surface diffraction leading to enhanced path lengths. At $L_{Si} = 80$ nm, the photonic crystal back reflector yields a striking average absorption enhancement of $9.15$x, much more than $0.83$x for a perfect metal, which is due to a remarkable guided mode confined within the combined thickness of the thin film and the photonic crystals Bragg attenuation length. The broad bandwidth of the 3D photonic band gap leads to the back reflectors Bragg attenuation length being much shorter than the silicon absorption length. Consequently, light is confined inside the thin film and the absorption enhancements are not due to the additional thickness of the photonic crystal back reflector.
We propose to shape biphoton wave packets with an electromagnetically induced grating in a four-level double-$Lambda$ cold atomic system. We show that the induced hybrid grating plays an essential role in directing the new fields into different angul
ar positions, especially to the zeroth-order diffraction. A number of interesting features appear in the shaped two-photon waveforms. For example, broadening or narrowing the spectrum would be possible in the proposed scheme even without the use of a cavity.
Laboratory optical atomic clocks achieve remarkable accuracy (now counted to 18 digits or more), opening possibilities to explore fundamental physics and enable new measurements. However, their size and use of bulk components prevent them from being
more widely adopted in applications that require precision timing. By leveraging silicon-chip photonics for integration and to reduce component size and complexity, we demonstrate a compact optical-clock architecture. Here a semiconductor laser is stabilized to an optical transition in a microfabricated rubidium vapor cell, and a pair of interlocked Kerr-microresonator frequency combs provide fully coherent optical division of the clock laser to generate an electronic 22 GHz clock signal with a fractional frequency instability of one part in 10^13. These results demonstrate key concepts of how to use silicon-chip devices in future portable and ultraprecise optical clocks.
We report here the first observation of electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) in $^{20}$Ne. The power broadening of the EIT linewidth is measured as a function of neon pressure and RF excitation power. Doppler effects on the EIT broadening a
re found even at low pressures and low intensities, where the linewidth should be governed only by homogeneous effects.
We report on the delay of optical pulses using electromagnetically induced transparency in an ensemble of cold atoms with an optical depth exceeding 500. To identify the regimes in which four-wave mixing impacts on EIT behaviour, we conduct the exper
iment in both rubidium 85 and rubidium 87. Comparison with theory shows excellent agreement in both isotopes. In rubidium 87, negligible four-wave mixing was observed and we obtained one pulse-width of delay with 50% efficiency. In rubidium 85, four-wave-mixing contributes to the output. In this regime we achieve a delay-bandwidth product of 3.7 at 50% efficiency, allowing temporally multimode delay, which we demonstrate by compressing two pulses into the memory medium.
