- Abstract: We report on a method for measuring ac Stark shifts observed in stored light
experiments while simultaneously determining the energetic splitting between
the electronic ground states involved in the two-photon transition. To this end
we make use of the frequency matching effect in light storage spectroscopy. We
find a linear dependence on the intensity of the control field applied during
the retrieval phase of the experiment. At the same time, we observe that the
light shift is insensitive to the intensity of the signal field which is in
contrast to continuously operated schemes using electromagnetically induced
transparency (EIT) or coherent population trapping (CPT). Our results may be of
importance for future light storage-based precision measurements with EIT and
CPT-type devices where, in contrast to schemes using continuous exposure to
optical fields, the impact of intensity fluctuations from the signal field can
be suppressed.

This study focuses on the classical transverse dynamics of the signal and idler beams when they propagate in a generic thick OPA at a nominally small angle.
We show that the beams tend to copropagate while maintaining a fixed separation, a phenomenon that we term hitching.

Electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) is a phenomenon that can provide strong and robust interfacing between optical signals and quantum coherence of electronic spins.
We show that EIT can be established with high visibility also in this material platform upon careful design of the measurement geometry.
Our work provides an understanding of EIT in multi-level systems with significant inhomogeneities, and our considerations are valid for a wide array of defects in semiconductors.

Photon exchange-phase and degree of distinguishability have not been widely utilized in quantum-enhanced applications.
We show that even at low degree entanglement, when a two-photon wave-function is coupled to matter, it is encoded with a reliable "which pathway?" information.
We find that quantum-light interferometry facilitates utterly different set of time-delay variables, which are unbound by uncertainty to the inverse bandwidth of the wave-packet.

We discuss the potential creation and measurement of coherences in both dispersive solids and qubit-like single levels using current generation time- and angle-resolved photoemission technology.
We show that in both cases, when both the pump and the probe overlap energetically with the coherent levels, that the time-resolved photoemission signal shows a beating pattern at the energy difference between the levels.
In the case of dispersive bands, this leads to momentum-dependent oscillations, which may be used to map out small energy scales in the band structure.
