Ultimate capabilities for compression of the waveform of a recoilless γ-ray photon into a pulse sequence in an optically deep vibrating resonant absorber

Abstract: Recently, an exponentially decaying waveform (the time-dependence of detection probability) of a Mössbauer γ-ray photon was transformed into a regular sequence of short pulses in a sinusoidally vibrating recoilless resonant absorber [Nature, 508, 80-83 (2014)]. In the present paper, we show that the peak amplitude of the pulses can be considerably increased via joint adjustment of optical depth of the absorber and the initial phase of its vibration. This is due to reduction of the photoelectric absorption and … Show more

“…However, the common tools for controlling quantum optical interfaces, such as intense spectrally narrow coherent sources and highfinesse cavities are still unavailable in hard x-ray/-ray range, preventing from a direct realization of the basic optical transparency techniques such as EIT and ATS-transparency, for high-energy photons. Several different techniques to control resonant interaction between hard x-ray/-ray photons and nuclear ensembles were developed, based on variation of hyperfine or external magnetic field [10,17,18], mechanical displacement (periodic or non-periodic) of an absorber or source with respect to each other including acoustic vibration [12,16,[19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27], and placing nuclei into a spatial sandwich-like nano-structure [11]. The 25% reduction in absorption of 14.4-keV photons was observed via anti-crossing of the upper energy sublevels of 57 Fe nuclei in a crystal of FeCO 3 taking place at 30 K [10].…”

“…The physical origin of AIT can be easily understood both in the laboratory reference frame and in the reference frame of the vibrating absorber ( In the vibrating reference frame, the spectrum of the incident single-photon wave packet is "seen" by nuclei as a comb of equidistant spectral components separated by the vibration frequency due to the Doppler effect ( Fig.2 red line, also see Supplemental Material) [12,22,26,27]. Amplitudes of the spectral components are proportional to Bessel functions of the first kind [12,22,26,27], (Fig.2). In the ideal case of monochromatic weak field and infinitely narrow spectral line of the absorber, the spectral sidebands are out of resonance and propagate through the medium without interaction with nuclei.…”
