All-Optical Switch and Transistor Gated by One Stored Photon
Open accessAbstract
A Single-Photon Gate: A long-standing goal in optics is to produce an all-optical transistor, in which the transmission of a light beam can be controlled by a single photon. Using a system in which a cloud of cesium atoms is coupled to an optical cavity, Chen et al. (p. 768 , published online 4 July; see the Perspective by Volz and Rauschenbeutel ) were able to control transmission through the optical cavity by exciting the atomic ensemble using a “gate” laser pulse. Just one gate photon stored was sufficient to detune the system and switch the transmission of source photons through the cavity.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
