Light manipulation by dual channel storage in ultra-cold Rydberg medium

We investigate the light propagation dynamics in ultra-cold Rydberg medium with inverted-Y configuration based on the superatom theory.It is viable to store light information in two types of atomic spin coherence(trivial spin coherence and Rydberg spin coherence),which makes the system a prospective platform for versatile light manipulation.A normal feature is to realize efficient light storage with simultaneous resonant control fields applied.An intriguing feature is to split light into two beams with different intensities and statistical properties if the control fields are applied separately.The beam of light retrieved from the Rydberg spin coherence is severely attenuated and shows anti-bunching character accompanied by the cooperative optical nonlinearity.Moreover,generation and manipulation of beating signal are achievable by applying the non-resonant control fields.

Resolution-enhanced single-pixel imaging using the Hadamard transform matrix

We propose a single-pixel imaging(SPI)method to achieve a higher-resolution image via the Hadamard transform matrix.Unlike traditional SPI schemes,this new method recovers images by correlating single-pixel signals with synchronized transformed patterns of Hadamard bases that are actually projected onto the digital micromirror device.Each transform pattern is obtained through the inverse Fourier transform of the pattern acquired by Gaussian filtering of each Hadamard basis in the frequency domain.The proposed scheme is based on a typical SPI experimental setup and does not add any hardware complexity,enabling the transformation of Hadamard matrices and image reconstruction through data processing alone.Therefore,this approach could be considered as an alternative option for achieving fast SPI in a diffraction-limited imaging system,without the need for additional hardware.

Dynamic manipulation of probe pulse and coherent generation of beating signals based on tunneling-induced inference in triangular quantum dot molecules

We investigate the dynamic propagation of a probe field via the tunneling-induced interference effect in a triple model of quantum dot molecules. By theoretical analysis and numerical simulation, we find that the number of transparency window relate to the energy splitting and the group velocity of probe field can be effectively controlled by the tunneling coupling intensity. In addition, in the process of light storage and retrieval, when the excited states have no energy splitting in the storage stage but opposite values of the energy splitting in the retrieval stage, the beating signals can be generated.

Iterative filtered ghost imaging

It is generally believed that,in ghost imaging,there has to be a compromise between resolution and visibility.Here we propose and demonstrate an iterative filtered ghost imaging scheme whereby a super-resolution image of a grayscale object is achieved,while at the same time the signal-to-noise ratio(SNR)and visibility are greatly improved,without adding complexity.The dependence of the SNR,visibility,and resolution on the number of iterations is also investigated and discussed.Moreover,with the use of compressed sensing the sampling number can be reduced to less than 1%of the Nyquist limit,while maintaining image quality with a resolution that can exceed the Rayleigh diffraction bound by more than a factor of 10.
