TOWARD A POWERFUL APPLICATION OF LASER SPECTROSCOPY: PHOTON-GATED PERSISTENT SPECTRAL HOLE BURNING.

Abstract

Persistent spectral hole burning (PHB) can be used to encode digital information through the presence and absence of spectral holes burned in inhomogeneously broadened absorption lines at low temperatures, leading to a possible high-density application of laser spectroscopy called frequency-domain optical storage (FDOS). The study of a potential storage materials is reserved, and the nonlinear process of photon gating in an organic electron transfer material is described.
