Applications of Quantum Measurement Techniques: Counterfactual Quantum Computation, Spin Hall Effect of Light, and Atomic-Vapor-Based Photon Detectors
… scheme for photo-detection based on atomic vapors. This approach is in principle capable of resolving the number of photons in a pulse, can be extended to non-destructive detection of photons, and most importantly is proposed to operate with single-photon detection efficiencies …

Progress Towards a Spinor Bose-Einstein Condensate Machine
… particles has become a major area of research in atomic physics with the discovery of the first Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs) in 1995. These ultracold atomic vapors allow for study of fundamental quantum electromagnetic properties of atoms that are otherwise inaccessible due to large thermal …

Quantum nonlinear optics: applications to quantum metrology, imaging, and information
… effects and coherent population trapping in warm atomic vapor involving quantum states of light are investigated. The process of seeding third-order nonlinear interactions, such as in atomic vapors, gives rise to a variety of interesting, nonclassical phenomena such as entangled image transfer and …

Engineering the optical properties of subwavelength devices and materials
… optical gain for an implementation involving atomic vapors. We then explored the applicability of this high-index system to immersion lithography and found that optical gain is problematic. We solved the issue of optical gain by proposing a scheme where a mixture of resonant systems is used. …

Brillouin scattering induced transparency: Coherent optomechanical interaction leading to slow light and non-reciprocal light transmission
… effects have previously been observed in both atomic vapors (using electronic coherent states) and optomechanical devices (using standing-wave mechanical resonances). Distinct from past efforts, the BSIT effect is sensitive to propagation direction due to momentum conservation requirements …
