Entropy Associated with Information Storage and Its Retrieval

Abstract: Abstract:We provide an entropy analysis for light storage and light retrieval. In this analysis, entropy extraction and reduction in a typical light storage experiment are identified. The spatiotemporal behavior of entropy is presented for D 1 transition in cold sodium atoms. The governing equations are the reduced Maxwell field equations and the Liouville-von Neumann equation for the density matrix of the dressed atom.

“…Our treatment for the time evolution of the dressed atom is based upon the density matrix approach. We are working with the density matrix in the flatten form as e α , where α numerates the maximum accessible bases from 1 to 28 [19]. Such general formalism will enable us to reveal enhancements of all accessible multipoles of the density matrix.…”

“…However, in this case, we attempt mainly to reveal the system's behavior showing the locations of non-linearity that are exposed by peaks downwards or upwards. In fact, these transition are due to interference effects among different ranks of the density matrix [8]. Figures 4 and 5 show the spikes with maximum-entropy and minimum-entropy.…”
