Deskripsi

Photon echo techniques are difficult to implement in the quantum regime due to coherent and spontaneous emission noise. Here, the authors propose a low-noise photon-echo quantum memory approach based on all-optical control in a four-level system, and demonstrate it using a Eu3+:Y2SiO5 crystal.
