Abstract

Inhomogeneously broadened optical transitions in nitrogen‐vacancy color centers in diamond and Pr^3+^ doped yttrium orthosilicate may be employed to attain all‐optically controlled Bragg structures with photonic band‐gaps of high reflectivities and large bandwidths. Such a control mechanism is valuable for improving performance and scalability of solid quantum memory devices. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
