Absorption-Free Sub- and Super-Luminal Light Propagation via Quantum Interference

Jianchun Wu, Zhengdong Liu, Jun Zheng

We investigate the dispersive and absorptive properties of an N-type four-level atomic system in three coherent fields, and consider the susceptibility mathematically. It is shown that the group velocity of the probe field exhibits sub- and super-luminal under some conditions, meanwhile the absorption coefficient keeps zero during the occurrence and transition process of sub- and super-luminal pulses.

Sub- and superluminance with gain in a three-level ladder-type atomic system with spontaneously generated coherence

Dingan Han, Yaguang Zeng, Weicheng Chen +2 more

The effects of spontaneously generated coherence (SGC) on the propagation of a weak probe pulse are investigated in a ladder-type atomic system. Due to SGC, the properties of the dispersion and the absorption of a three-level ladder-type system are changed greatly. With proper parameters, the system can produce normal and anomalous dispersion regions in the gain region. The effects of the incoherent pumping and the relative phase on the group velocity are also studied. They all can be used as switches to manipulate the group velocity of the weak probe field from gain-assisted sub- to superluminance.
