- Abstract: We propose a scheme for the creation of stable optical Ferris wheel(OFW)
solitons in a nonlocal Rydberg electromagnetically induced transparency(EIT)
medium. Depending on a careful optimization to both the atomic density and the
one-photon detuning, we obtain an appropriate nonlocal potential provided by
the strong interatomic interaction in Rydberg states which can perfectly
compensate for the diffraction of the probe OFW field. Numerical results show
that the fidelity keeps larger than 0.96 while the propagation distance has
exceeded 160 diffraction lengths. Higher-order OFW solitons with arbitrary
winding numbers are also discussed. Our study provides a straightforward route
to generate spatial optical solitons in the nonlocal response region of cold
Rydberg gases.

We develop and demonstrate a spectroscopic method for Rydberg-Rydberg transitions using a standing-wave laser field.
The method is based on the ponderomotive interaction of the Rydberg electron, which has less-restrictive selection rules than electric-dipole couplings.
The method paves the way for optical Doppler-free high-precision spectroscopy of Rydberg-Rydberg transitions and for spatially-selective qubit manipulation.

semiconductor integrated sources of photon pairs may operate at pump wavelengths much closer to the bandgap of the materials.
We show that devices operating near the long wavelength end of the S-band or the short C-band require temporal filtering shorter than 1 ns.
We predict that shifting the operating wavelengths to the L-band and making small adjustments in the material composition will reduce the amount of photoluminescence to negligible values.

In this regime, self-induced transparency emerges when areas of the nanosecond pulse are determined primarily by the Rydberg atom interaction.
