Abstract

This work describes the systematic measurements of the angular dependence of an electromagnetically-induced transparency (EIT) resonance linewidth observed at a room temperature vapor of cesium in the presence of 20 Torr of Ne buffer gas. Moreover, this study measures the angular dependence for a cesium vapor without buffer gas, but under the same experimental conditions. A comparative discussion between the two cases are also presented.

Absorption resonances in 'Lambda'-type three-level system in cesium vapor cell with buffer gas

Jie Ma, Yanting Zhao, Lirong Wang +3 more

We report experimentally the transformation from the electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) resonance to a dispersion-like signal and eventually to a nearly symmetric absorption resonance as coupling detuning increases in 'Lambda'-type three-level system in the cesium vapor cell with buffer gas at room temperature. The observed absorption resonance occupies some remarkable properties of the strong amplitude and the narrow linewidth in comparison with the case without buffer gas. The relation between linewidth of the enhanced absorption resonance and buffer gas pressure is studied. With pressure increasing, linewidth of the absorption resonance becomes narrow. The sub-natural linewidth is observed in Doppler-broadened cesium vapor cell in our experiment. The experimental results are in qualitative agreement with the numerical simulations.

Experimental observation of the linewidth narrowing of electromagnetically induced transparency resonance

Bo Wang, Shujing Li, Jingqin Yao +4 more

We report an experimental observation of the variation in linewidth of the electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) resonance in a three-level ?-type system for several laser bandwidths in a Rb vapor cell, with and without a buffer gas. It is found, using narrow bandwidth (about 20 kHz) diode laser for both coupling and probe beams, that the linewidth of the EIT resonance can be significantly narrowed in the Rb vapor cell with the buffer gas. The results are in good qualitative agreement with a simple theoretical calculation.

Angular dependence of an electromagnetically induced transparency resonance in a Doppler-broadened atomic vapor

P. R. S. Carvalho, Luı́s E. E. de Araujo, J. W. R. Tabosa

We measured the dependence of the linewidth of an electromagnetically induced transparency resonance on the angle between coupling and probe beams in an atomic cesium vapor. We observed that the nonparallelism of the beams contributes strongly to a broadening of the coherent resonance, even for small angles on the order of a few milliradians. A numerical calculation that agrees qualitatively with the experimental results is also presented. We discuss a possible application of the observed effect for performing cold-atom velocimetry.

High sensitivity spectroscopy of cesium Rydberg atoms using electromagnetically induced transparency

Jianming Zhao, Xingbo Zhu, Linjie Zhang +3 more

A high sensitivity spectroscopy of Rydberg atoms is presented by using electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) in the 6S(1/2)-6P(3/2)-n D ladder-type system of cesium vapor cell at room temperature. The EIT spectra of 40 D Rydberg state are measured and the dependences of the EIT magnitude and linewidth on the coupling laser power are investigated in detail. The Rydberg EIT linewidth is measured to be about 5.6 MHz when the powers of probe and coupling lasers are 50 microW and 5.2 mW, respectively, and which is close to the natural linewidth of cesium atoms. The effect of double resonance optical pumping on EIT is also investigated. The fine structures of nD (n = 39-55) are measured and the experimental result is in agreement with quantum defect theory.

Observation of electromagnetically induced transparency in cesium molecules

Hebin Li, H. Chen, M A Gubin +3 more

We have studied electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) in diatomic cesium molecules in a vapor cell by using tunable diode lasers. We have observed a sub-natural Λ-resonance in absorption molecular band B 1Π u − X 1Σ g + at different cesium vapor pressures. The width of the EIT resonance shows a linear dependence on a cesium vapor pressure.

Dynamics of multi-type electromagnetically induced transparency in V -system of cesium atoms at room temperature

Abstract We experimentally studied the electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) in cesium (Cs) vapors under a three-level V -configuration system. Two independent diode lasers were employed in locked and scanning mode, respectively, for pumping and probing the atomic media. A probe laser was scanned across 6 S 1/2 ( F = 4) to all subsutructures of 6 P 3/2 ( F ′ = 5 , F ′ = 4 and F ′ = 3 ) and the pump was locked at F ′ = 5 or F ′ = 4 or F ′ = 3 of 6 P 3/2 . A good agreement of the experimental results with theoretical simulations was observed. The intensity and magnetic field dependence of the EIT spectrum in a V -type system of Cs atoms was also studied.
