Abstract

We study the dynamics of the phase pulses of laser radiation with two resonant frequency components propagating in an atomic three-level Λ type medium under coherent population trapping. Using the density matrix adiabatic approach we show that the effect of a very large slowing down occurs not only for amplitude pulses, but also for phase pulses. The group velocity of phase pulses can be controlled by the amplitudes of resonant fields. The analytical solution describing the mutual influence of the phase modulation of one field component on another is obtained.

Adiabatic propagation of short pulses under conditions of electromagnetically induced transparency

Vasily G. Arkhipkin, Ivan V. Timofeev

The spatial and temporal dynamics of two short pulses propagating in an optically dense medium of resonant three-level Λ-atoms is investigated numerically and analytically. The maximum coherence for the Raman transition due to coherent population trapping. It is shown that, at the initial stage of propagation, the waveforms of such pulses only slightly change along the length of the medium, which may considerably exceed the length of linear absorption for a single weak pulse. As the length of the absorbing medium increases, the energy of the probe (first) pulse is completely transferred into the second (control) pulse.

Long distance propagation of resonant pulses under conditions of induced transparency

Vasily G. Arkhipkin, Ivan V. Timofeev

Summary form only given. The possibility to render optically thick media transparent for coherent laser radiation via electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) gained considerable interest over recent years. Here we study a propagation of two short laser pulses in an absorbing three-level medium under conditions of EIT. We consider two cases: the coherent population trapping (CPT) and the adiabatic population transfer (APT).

Phase-controlled transformation of two-frequency laser radiation in resonant three-level Lambda-medium

Dmitry V. Kosachiov

The paper presents a theoretical investigation of propagation of two frequency laser radiation in resonant (Lambda) -medium driven by a radiofrequency field on the transition between the two bottom levels. It is established that there is dramatic dependence of the character of propagation of radiation along the medium on phase and amplitude of the radiofield and on initial phases and intensities of the optical fields. We show that both amplification of one wave at the expense of the energy of another wave and transparency of the medium produced by population trapping can take place.

Propagation of a laser pulse in a three-level cascade atomic medium under conditions of electromagnetically induced transparency

Minh Dong Hoang, Van Doai Le, Ngoc Sau Vu +2 more

We study the propagation dynamics of a single pair of probe and coupling laser pulses in a three-level cascade atomic medium by numerical solving the Maxwell-Bloch equations for atoms and fields. Influences of the pulse durations, intensity and pulse area of the coupling laser on the probe laser propagation are investigated. We found the conditions that the undistorted probe pulse in such i.e., the effect is established. Under conditions, the ground state population is trapped in a dark state.

Propagation of two short pulses under conditions of electromagnetically induced transparency: adiabatic following

Vasily G. Arkhipkin, Ivan V. Timofeev

Spatio-temporal dynamics of two short laser pulses propagating in an absorbing medium, which consists of one- and two-photon resonant (Lambda) -atoms, is investigated in the adiabatic approximation. We give an analytical solution and compare it with numerical simulations. It is shown that pulses may propagate in a medium, whose thickness is considerably greater than the length of the linear absorption of a single weak probe wave. Finally, full transfer of the probe pulse energy into the coupling pulse takes place. A vector model of the adiabatic interaction of two pulses with three-level atom is proposed.
