We present an optical filter that is appropriate for use with Raman beams in atomic interferometry. This is a filter that lets the light of the two frequencies of the Raman pair go through and rejects spurious frequencies that may be close to the atomic resonance and cause decoherence. We characterized the filter's performance optically and also by shining the light into atoms in a Ramsey sequence, to look for decoherence effects from photon scattering. We found that it is safe to use tapered amplifiers in single and double pass for light amplification in the Raman beams since the pedestal of emission has a negligible effect, which can be further reduced by the use of the filter we present.

Article Synopsis
  • Researchers have successfully created quasi-freestanding bilayer borophene, which shows great potential for micro-electronic applications due to its metallic properties.
  • The study uses various simulation methods, including STM and TEM imaging, to explore and characterize the structure and electronic properties of borophene, helping to identify different phases.
  • Cluster assembled borophene is proposed as an effective cathode material for Li-O batteries, demonstrating lower overpotential in the oxygen evolution reaction compared to the oxygen reduction reaction, linked to the interaction strength of lithium intermediates with boron sheets.

Stimulated Raman scattering, employing a pump and a Stokes beam, exhibits itself through both the Raman loss observed in the pump beam and the Raman gain in the Stokes beam. This phenomenon finds application in spectroscopy for chemical analyses and microscopy for label-free bioimaging studies. Recent efforts have been made to implement super-resolution Raman microscopy using a doughnut-shaped pump, Stokes, or depletion beam.

Individually addressed entangling gates in a two-dimensional ion crystal.

Two-dimensional (2D) ion crystals may represent a promising path to scale up qubit numbers for ion trap quantum information processing. However, to realize universal quantum computing in this system, individually addressed high-fidelity two-qubit entangling gates still remain challenging due to the inevitable micromotion of ions in a 2D crystal as well as the technical difficulty in 2D addressing. Here we demonstrate two-qubit entangling gates between any ion pairs in a 2D crystal of four ions.

Raman fiber lasers (RFLs), which are based on the stimulated Raman scattering effect, generate laser beams and offer distinct advantages such as flexibility in wavelength, low quantum defects, and absence from photo-darkening. However, as the power of the RFLs increases, heat generation emerges as a critical constraint on further power scaling. This escalating thermal load might result in transverse mode instability (TMI), thereby posing a significant challenge to the development of RFLs.
