Abstract

We demonstrate the existence of population-trapping states in a two-level system driven by a frequency-modulated field. We present detailed numerical results on trapping and also on jumps in the system which occur when the energy levels cross.

POPULATION TRAPPING PHENOMENA IN A TWO-LEVEL SYSTEM

LONG DE-SHUN, Ning Xi-Jing, 复旦大学现代物理研究所,上海200433

The critical criterion for realizing population trapping is deduced for a two-level system driven by a frequency-modulated laser field in terms of dressed atom model, followed by demonstrating the various population trapping behaviours under different conditions. Detailed numerical solutions of time-dependent Schr?idinger equation are found to be in good agreement with the analytical results.

Coherent population trapping in a two-level atom excited by a resonant field under amplitude and phase modulation

N. V. Sushilov, V. V. Brunbender

Recently, the existence of population-trapping states in a two-level system driven by a frequency-modulated field has been demonstrated. In this work we show such states can exist in a two-level atom driven by both an amplitude- and phase- modulated field.

Population trapping in multi-level system via quantum interference

Population trapping via quantum interference in a multi-level system driven by a coherent field is investigated. The influences of the alignment of the transition dipole moments and the energy-level separation of the upper levels are taken into account. Detailed trapping population profiles under the different conditions are given. The research result is helpful for simplifying the theoretical model and selecting rational energy level system.

Population trapping and dispersion in a three-level system

PAUL M. RADMORE, P. L. Knight

The population dynamics and spectra of a three-level system driven by two applied fields of arbitrary amplitudes and detunings are examined using dressed-state techniques. The authors report the existence of novel dispersive features in the variation with detuning of the intermediate-state population.

Phase shift of the population oscillation and population trapping

Xianzhou Zhang, Hong-Min Jiang, Rao Jianguo +1 more

Using our recently developed time-dependent multilevel approach, we have calculated the phase shift of the population oscillation of the excited potassium atom in frequency-modulated fields when the modulation amplitude is suddenly changed. The numerical results are in good agreement with the measurements. A new way of realizing population trapping is suggested.
