Abstract

We observed electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) in a Zeeman-sublevel system using rubidium atomic vapour at the temperature of 75~C, in which the width of the EIT signal is only 0.6 MHz. Two different methods were performed to observe the EIT signal in our experiment.

Electromagnetically induced transparency in a Zeeman-sublevels A-system of cold STRb atoms in free space

蒋小军, 张海潮, 王育竹

We report the experimental investigation of electromagnetically induced transparency（EIT） in a Zeeman-sublevelsΛ-type system of cold 87Rb atoms in free space. We use the Zeeman substates of the hyperfine energy states 52S1/2, F = 2 and 52P3/2, F = 2 of 87Rb D2 line to form a Λ-type EIT scheme. The EIT signal is obtained by scanning the probe light over 1 MHz in 4 ms with an 80 MHz arbitrary waveform generator. More than 97% transparency and 100 k Hz EIT window are observed. This EIT scheme is suited for an application of pulsed coherent storage atom clock（Yan B, et al. 2009 Phys.Rev. A 79 063820）.

Electromagnetically induced transparency in a Zeeman-sublevels Λ -system of cold 87 Rb atoms in free space

We report the experimental investigation of electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) in a Zeeman-sublevels Λ -type system of cold 87 Rb atoms in free space. We use the Zeeman substates of the hyperfine energy states 5 2 S 1/2 , F = 2 and 5 2 P 3/2 , F ' = 2 of 87 Rb D 2 line to form a Λ -type EIT scheme. The EIT signal is obtained by scanning the probe light over 1 MHz in 4 ms with an 80 MHz arbitrary waveform generator. More than 97% transparency and 100 kHz EIT window are observed. This EIT scheme is suited for an application of pulsed coherent storage atom clock (Yan B, et al. 2009 Phys. Rev. A 79 063820).

Dependence of electromagnetically induced transparency on temperature

Xiao Feng, Guo Rui-Min, Li Lu-Ming +2 more

We performed an experimental study on the dependence of the linewidth of electromagetically induced transparency (EIT) on the temperature of medium in a Λ-type configuration using caesium vapour. We found that the transparent window is narrowed in the EIT whose two ground levels are composed of two hyperfine levels and broadened in the case when the two ground levels are degenerated Zeeman sublevels, as the temperature of vapour cell is increased. The explanation for the phenomena is given qualitatively.

Roles of degenerate Zeeman levels in electromagnetically induced transparency

Ying-Cheng Chen, Chung-Wei Lin, Ite A. Yu

We have observed various $\ensuremath{\Lambda}$-type electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) spectra in laser-cooled ${}^{87}\mathrm{Rb}$ atoms of different laser polarization configurations. Unexpected profiles occur in the EIT spectra. We have found the degenerate Zeeman sublevels are responsible for these profiles. The experimental data are in good agreement with the results from the theoretical calculation which takes into account all the 13 Zeeman levels in the $\ensuremath{\Lambda}$ system. Our study demonstrates that Zeeman sublevels play important roles in quantum interference phenomena such as EIT and amplification without population inversion (AWI), and should be taken into account in the analysis of these phenomena.

Electromagnetically induced transparency in a sodium vapour cell

Stanislav B. Baluschev, Norbert Leinfellner, Eugeny Korsunsky +1 more

We report on an investigation of electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) in sodium vapour. In our experiment, sodium atoms are excited on the D1-line with laser radiation containing two components with a frequency difference close to that of the two hyperfine ground states of sodium (1.772 GHz). Such an excitation leads to coherent trapping of atomic population in “dark” superpositional states, which dramatically reduces the absorption of light. A frequency transparency window is measured to have a subnatural width, which is a clear indication of coherent population trapping. Dependence of EIT on laser frequencies and intensities, on the magnetic field strength as well as on the temperature of the sodium vapour is studied.
