Abstract:The results of an experimental investigation of the incoherent photon echo in ruby (with Cr 3+ concentration equal to 0.16 wt%) at T = 1.7 K are presented. Optical fiber with length 3 m and diameter 100 µm was used for delivery of the first exciting pulse to a sample. The dependence of the IPE intensity on the excitation wavelength within the width of R1 absorption line was studied. The IPE decay curve was obtained and the phase relaxation time was found to be equal to 98 ns. Oscillogram of incoherent backward photon echo (IPE) in concentrated ruby. The IPE signal is the first one at the right. The other pulses are the signals of diffraction corresponding to the first and the second exciting laser pulses
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
