Resonant self-focusing of periodically modulated laser beams

Vladimir Leonardovich Derbov, Inna L. Plastun

On-resonance self-action of a beam with periodically modulated amplitude in a two-level saturable absorber is studied numerically. When the period of modulation is comparable with relaxation times, one cannot describe the medium by means of susceptibility, and the response of the medium to the amplitude variation is not immediate. We solve the Bloch equations in each point of the medium to find this response correctly. Transient behavior followed by stable oscillations of population difference and polarization vector is shown to depend strongly on the frequency and amplitude of modulation. Beam propagation is considered using a simplified model of a thin absorber followed by free space, the propagation distance being small compared with the modulation wavelength. Manifestations of non-stationary response of the medium in the output intensity behavior are analyzed.

Non-Stationary Saturated Absorption and Refraction Effects in Laser Beams with Periodical Modulation of Frequency

Vladimir Leonardovich Derbov, Inna L. Plastun, Vladislav Viktorovich Serov +1 more

Periodical modulation of frequency, typical for spectroscopic purposes, is numerically modelled in transversely limited, propagating through a saturable two-level absorber. At modulation periods comparable with the atomic relaxation times the time and frequency dependence of the output intensity exhibits the manifestations of delayed medium response, including time-dependent lens and aperture effects that may be of importance in spectroscopy
