These kinds of beams are the alternative form of standard Ince-Gaussian beams and they display better symmetry between the ]nce-polynomials and the Gaussian function in mathematics. The transverse intensity distribution and the phase of the elegant Ince Gaussian beams are discussed.展开更多

A large obstacle that impedes the storage of the spatial multimode in a hot atomic ensemble is atomic diffusion, which severely disturbs the structure of the retrieved light field. In this paper, we demonstrate that the elegant InceGaussian(eIG) mode possesses the ability to resist such diffusion. Our experimental results show that the overall structure of the eIG modes under different parameters maintains well after microseconds of storage. In contrast, the standard IG modes under the same circumstance are disrupted and become unrecognizable. Our findings could promote the construction of quantum networks based on room-temperature atoms.展开更多
