Amplification of a weak circularly polarized light signal in a multilevel atomic medium

E. A. Gazazyan, G. G. Grigoryan, A. Papoyan

Amplification of a weak circularly polarized light signal in a multilevel atomic medium excited by a strong linearly polarized resonant radiation is studied. A strong optical pumping may lead to the population inversion between magnetic sublevels of hyperfine components of the ground and excited states. Solution to the self-consistent system of density matrix equations and Maxwell equations for propagation of the weak signal allows analyzing optimum conditions of amplification.

Analytical Solutions of Temporal Evolution of Populations in Optically-Pumped Atoms with Circularly Polarized Light

Heung‐Ryoul Noh

We present an analytical calculation of temporal evolution of populations for optically pumped atoms under the influence of weak, circularly polarized light. The differential equations for the populations of magnetic sublevels in the excited state, derived from rate equations, are expressed in the form of inhomogeneous second-order differential equations with constant coefficients. We present a general method of analytically solving these differential equations, and obtain explicit analytical forms of the populations of the ground state at the lowest order in the saturation parameter. The obtained populations can be used to calculate lineshapes in various laser spectroscopies, considering transit time relaxation.

Analytical study of optical pumping for the D1 line of 85Rb atoms

Heung‐Ryoul Noh

We present analytical solutions for the populations of the D 1 transition line of 85 Rb atoms. The time evolution of the populations of the magnetic sublevels in the excited state at the weak intensity limit exhibits several kinds of homogeneous or inhomogeneous second-order differential equations. General solutions of the differential equations result in an analytical form of the population in each magnetic sublevel as a function of the elapsed time, laser intensity, and laser frequency detuning.
