Electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) is observed in a three-level multi-V-type system in cesium vapor at room temperature. The absorption and dispersion properties are measured under the condition that the coupling frequency is exactly resonance with transition 6S1/2(F=4) to 6P3/2(F'=3) while the probe frequency is scanned across the transitions from the 6S1/2(F=4) to all structures of the 6P3/2. The effects of the intensity of the pumping beam on EIT signal are investigated. The simple theory model was presented and the results of the experiment agree with the simple theoretical analysis.
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.
Based on the cesium 6S1/2 -6P3/2 -8S1/2 ladder-type system, electromagnetically-induced transparency (EIT) is further investigated in a room-temperature vapor cell. When the probe laser is locked to one of the hyperfine transitions between the ground state 6S1/2 (F=3) and the intermediate state 6P3/2 while the coupling laser scans the transition between the intermediate state 6P3/2 and the excited state 8S1/2, the EIT spectrum has a flat background improving the spectral resolution. The theoretically calculated EIT spectral profiles from a multi-level ladder-type model are consistent well with the obtained experimental phenomena.
We present an investigation of electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) without Doppler background due to a locked probe laser. The EIT is theoretically studied based on a multilevel ladder-type cesium atomic system 6S1/2--6P3/2--8S1/2 in a room-temperature vapor cell. The experimental results agree with the theoretical calculations. Compared with the traditional EIT spectra with a Doppler profile limiting the spectral resolution for keeping the coupling laser locked and scanning the probe laser, these EIT spectra with the probe laser locked and the coupling laser scanned have a flat background, which seem be of great benefit for applications such as the measurement of hyperfine intervals between excited states, the study of highly excited Rydberg states, laser-frequency stabilization, etc.
