Abstract

The elimination of the absorption of a weak electromagnetic wave in a three-level atomic system in the presence of a strong resonant electromagnetic wave is well known in optics. This effect is termed electromagnetically induced transparency. We have theoretically investigated this effect in a crystal of molecular magnets. The crystal is subject to two (weak and strong) resonant magnetic fields. We discuss the choice of polarization of the magnetic fields. The influence of the distribution of the longitudinal anisotropy constant and the Land\'e factor on the manifestation of electromagnetically induced transparency has been studied. The amplitude of the strong field required for observation of the effect has been estimated.

Electromagnetically induced transparency in crystals of magnetic molecules

G. A. Vugalter, Alexey V. Shvetsov

The effect of electromagnetically induced transparency in crystals of magnetic molecules was theoretically investigated. The problem of choosing the polarizations of strong and weak resonant magnetic fields acting on a crystal is discussed. Estimates of the amplitude of strong resonant field that is necessary for manifestation of this effect in crystals of magnetic molecules Mn 12 and Fe 8 are reported.

Relation between electromagnetically induced absorption resonances and nonlinear magneto-optics in Λ systems

Dmitry Budker, Simon Rochester

Recent work on $\ensuremath{\Lambda}$ resonances in alkali-metal vapors (E. Mikhailov, I. Novikova, Yu. V. Rostovtsev, and G. R. Welch, e-print quant-ph/0309171, and references therein) investigated a type of electromagnetically induced absorption resonance that occurs in three-level systems under specific conditions normally associated with electromagnetically induced transparency. In this note, we show that these resonances have a direct analog in nonlinear magneto-optics, and support this conclusion with a calculation for a $J=1\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{J}^{\ensuremath{'}}=0$ system interacting with a single, nearly circularly polarized light field in the presence of a weak longitudinal magnetic field.

Electromagnetically induced transparency of a quantum wire with longitudinal heterostructures under the influence of external electric and magnetic fields

G. Rezaei, Somayeh Mohammadi Bigdeli

In this article the electromagnetically induced transparency of a quantum wire with longitudinal heterostructures, under the influence of external electric and magnetic fields are investigated. To this end, the group velocity and absorption coefficient of the medium in the presence of external electric and magnetic fields are studied. It is found that, electromagnetically induced transparency occurs in the system and its frequency, transparency window and group velocity of the probe field strongly depend on the external electric field and the well width. In comparison with atomic system, one may control the electromagnetically induced transparency and the group velocity of light in these structures with the well width.

Optical-magnetism-induced transparency in a metamaterial

Ling Qin, Kun Zhang, Ru‐Wen Peng +4 more

In this paper, we theoretically demonstrate that electromagnetic transparency can be induced by optical magnetism in a metamaterial, which is composed of metamolecules. Each metamolecule consists of a metallic split-ring resonator, as one bright meta-atom (which is optically magnetic), and also a cut-wire pair, as one dark meta-atom (which is optically nonmagnetic). It is found that magnetic resonances occur at optical frequencies due to the local magnetic interaction between ``bright'' meta-atoms and ``dark'' meta-atoms; thereafter, a transparency window emerges upon the original absorption background. The phenomenon is similar to the electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) in atomic three-level systems, and a microscopic picture is given to compare it with the EIT. Furthermore, low loss and slow light in this metamaterial have also been verified. The investigations may achieve potential applications on integrated optical circuits.

Spatial transparency in atomic vapor: effects of transverse magnetic field on cylindrical vector beams

Yan Ma, Hong Chang, X. H. Bai +3 more

The interaction between cylindrical vector beams and atoms under a weak magnetic field induces spatially dependent electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT). Based on this coherence effect, we investigated the relationship between the magnitude and orientation of the transverse magnetic field (TMF) and the spatial intensity distribution of cylindrical vector beams passing through a thermal atom ensemble, which is intuitively manifested in polarization selection absorption. The radially polarized beam exhibits a spatial axisymmetric polarization structure. When a TMF is applied, transparent regions in the transmitted beam strongly correlate with the beam’s polarization distribution. Variations in the TMF magnitude alter the absorption of specific polarization components by the atomic system, thereby affecting the local transmittance. This enables the TMF magnitude to be inferred from the single transmittance of the intensity pattern. The alignment of the TMF orientation is reflected in the rotation of the petal-shaped transmission patterns aligned with the mirror axis. Theoretical solutions using optical Bloch equations reveal this specific spatially dependent EIT is closely related to the transverse relaxation rate between the ground state energy levels. Experimental data align perfectly with the theoretical results, suggesting potential applications in light field manipulation and magnetic field measurement.
