Design of a mode converter for efficient light-atom coupling in free space
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this article, we describe the motivation and concept of a mode converter that transforms a plane electromagnetic wave into an inward moving dipole wave. The latter one is intended to bring a single two-level atom or ion from its ground state to its excited state by absorption of a single photon wave packet with 100% efficiency.

Highly efficient mode converter for coupling light into wide slot photonic crystal waveguide.
We design, fabricate and experimentally demonstrate a highly efficient adiabatic mode converter for coupling light into a silicon slot waveguide with a slot width as large as 320 nm. This strip-to-slot mode converter is optimized to provide a measured insertion loss as low as 0.08 dB. Our mode converter provides 0.1 dB lower loss compared to a conventional V-shape mode converter. This mode conv...
متن کاملLight-matter interaction in free space
We review recent experimental advances in the field of efficient coupling of single atoms and light in free space. Furthermore, a comparison of efficient free space coupling and strong coupling in cavity quantum electrodynamics (QED) is given. Free space coupling does not allow for observing oscillatory exchange between the light field and the atom which is the characteristic feature of strong ...

This paper describes a new design for direct sliding mode method with a high switching frequency using the PD-PI type sliding surface applied to a negative output Luo converter worked in continuous current mode for applications required constant power source such as aerospace applications, medical equipment and etc. Because of the output power and line changes, the converter model is also nonli...
متن کاملA Non-Demolition Photon Counting Method by Four-Level Inverted Y-Type Atom
The semi-classical model of atom-field interaction has been fully studied for some multilevel atoms, e.g. Vee, L, Cascade X , Y, and inverted Y and so on. This issue is developed into the full-quantum electrodynamics formalism, where the probe and coupling electromagnetic fields are quantized. In this article, we investigate the full-quantum model of absorption and dispersion spectrum of trappe...
متن کاملDesign and Implementation of a Constant Frequency Sliding Mode Controller for a Luo Converter
In this study, a robust controller for voltage regulation of the POESLL converter worked in continuous conduction mode is presented. POESLL converter is a DC/DC converter with a high voltage gain. DC/DC converters are used in telecommunication systems, power sources and industrial applications. Owing to the switching operation, the structure of the POESLL converter is highly non-linear. In addi...
