“…Various optical functions, such as time-domain correlation [7,8], real-time data routing [9,10] and true-time delay generation for radar application [11,12], have been demonstrated recently that illustrate SHB signal processing potential. We recently proposed an opto-electronic architecture to exploit the large bandwidth and high resolution of SHB for spectral analysis of RF signals [13][14][15]. Ultimately, the SHB spectrometer would feature bandwidth in excess of 10 GHz; with flexibility, resolution better than 1 MHz and low consumption.…”

“…They could be simultaneously detected on a matrix of photodetectors. Since the first experimental demonstration on the instantaneous SHB based spectral analysis of optically carried broadband radio frequency signals [6], the accessible spectral range has been progressively broadened up to 3.3 GHz with 100 channels [7][8][9]. The goal is to demonstrate 10 GHz bandwidth with 1000 channels and 100% duty cycle.…”

As part of a search for suitable materials for coherent quantum operations, relaxation times and hyperfine structure of the 1 D 2 ͑1͒-3 H 4 ͑1͒ transition in Pr 3+ :KY͑WO 4 ͒ 2 (0.29 at. %) at 4 K have been obtained using photon-echo and spectral hole burning techniques. The homogeneous linewidth and the effect of excitationinduced dephasing were measured using two-pulse photon-echo techniques. Linewidths of 23.4± 1.0 and 17.6± 0.9 kHz were obtained in the absence and presence of an external magnetic field of about 9 mT. The radiative lifetime ͑T 1 ͒ of the 1 D 2 state was measured to be 43± 2 s using time-resolved laser-induced fluorescence and three-pulse photon-echo measurements. The transmission hole spectra were measured and directly yielded the quadrupole level splitting in the 1 D 2 (3.77± 0.03 and 4.58± 0.04 MHz) and 3 H 4 (17.1± 0.1 and 33.2± 0.3 MHz) states. The spectral hole lifetime due to population redistribution between the ground-state nuclear levels was also determined to be 70± 10 ms. A strong dipole-dipole interaction observed in this crystal opens for potential applications in quantum computing schemes for performing quantum logic operations, but the short dephasing time makes it less useful in data storage applications.
