Simplified quantum logic with trapped ions

open access: yes, 1996
We describe a simplified scheme for quantum logic with a collection of laser-cooled trapped atomic ions. Building on the scheme of Cirac and Zoller, we show how the fundamental controlled-NOT gate between a collective mode of ion motion and the internal ...

ATMOSPHERIC LASER COMMUNICATION

open access: yesBulletin of the American Meteorological Society, 2004
Atmospheric laser communication, often referred to as free-space optics (FSO) or free-space laser (FSL) communication, is similar to fiber optic cable in terms of carrier wavelength and bandwidth capability, but data are transmitted directly through the atmosphere via laser beams over paths from a few meters to 4 km or longer.

Improved performance of a hybrid radio/fiber system using a directly modulated laser transmitter with external injection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
A directly modulated laser diode with external light injection is used to generate microwave optical signals for a hybrid radio/fiber system. The external light injection greatly enhances the frequency response of the laser, and thus, significantly ...

Satellite Laser Communication

open access: yes, 2010
We applied Chu and Hogg’s key cloud attenuation results to Italsat observations (9) and cloud water analysis (11) to estimate worldwide laser attenuation for satellite- ground communication links. Section 3 gave worldwide zenith attenuation estimates for 80% availability, 90% availability, and 70% availability.
