Raman quantum memory with built-in suppression of four-wave-mixing noise
Published in Physical Review A, 2019
This paper is about suppressing four-wave mixing noise within a Raman quantum memory. We demonstrate the potential for single-photon storage using this scheme.

Room temperature atomic frequency comb storage for light
Published in Optics Letters, 2021
This paper demonstrates coherent storage and retrieval of pulsed light using the atomic frequency comb quantum memory protocol in a room temperature alkali vapour.
