Nonlinear resonances in the absorption spectrum of the three-level atomic V system in strong polyharmonic and weak biharmonic fields
S. A. Pulkin, Svetlana Uvarova, Evald E. Fradkin
A three-level atomic system with a strong three-mode field and a probing biharmonic field at transitions 1→2 and 1⇆3 (1 is a common lower level), respectively, is studied theoretically by numerical simulation and an analysis of the mathematical expressions derived for the particular case of a symmetric arrangement of the strong field components relative to the transition frequency ω 21 . The absorption spectrum of the probing field components contains parametric supernarrow resonances against the background of resonances of the nonlinear interference effect. The ratios of the differences in the frequencies of the strong and probing fields, at which the supernarrow resonances appear, are found analytically. The results coincide with those obtained from numerical simulation.
