Optical wavelength conversion of quantum states with optomechanics

Coherent optical wavelength conversion via cavity optomechanics.

Both classical and quantum systems utilize the interaction of light and matter across a wide range of energies. These systems are often not naturally compatible with one another and require a means of converting photons of dissimilar wavelengths to combine and exploit their different strengths. Here we theoretically propose and experimentally demonstrate coherent wavelength conversion of optica...

Quantum Optomechanics with Silicon Nanostructures

Mechanical resonators are the most basic and ubiquitous physical systems known. In on-chip form, they are used to process high frequency signals in every cell phone, television, and laptop. They have also been in the last few decades in different shapes and forms, a critical part of progress in quantum information sciences with kilogram-scale mirrors for gravitational wave detection measuring m...

Performance of All-Optical Networks with Limited-Range Wavelength Conversion

Previous works have shown that wavelength conversion can considerably improve the performance in all–optical networks. However, it is an unrealistic assumption under the current technology and wavelength conversion with a limited range, not a full range, is more promising. In this paper, we propose a new analytic approach for such networks by virtue of the layered–graph where each wavelength is...
