System and method for brillouin scattering induced transparency

摘要

A system and method includes a laser to create a control laser signal and a laser to create a probe laser signal. A resonator creates an acoustic signal adjacent the control laser signal and the probe laser signal. A resulting coherent interaction between the control laser signal and the probe laser signal creates a Brillouin scattering induced transparency in one direction and maintains opacity in an opposite direction.

1. A system comprising:
a resonator shaped to include two optical modes that are distinct in both frequency and momentum and an acoustic mode at a frequency and momentum matching a difference between the two optical modes; a control laser to create a control laser signal in one of the two optical modes of the resonator; a probe laser to create a probe laser signal in another of the two optical modes of the resonator; an optical coupler to provide an interface of the control laser signal and the probe laser signal with the two optical modes of the resonator; and where a coherent interaction between the two optical modes and the acoustic mode modifies an amplitude or a phase of light in the optical coupler depending on a direction of propagation of the control laser signal or the probe laser signal, or both the control laser signal and the probe laser signal.
