Soliton-pair Propagation under Thermal Bath Effect

Abstract

We consider two atomic transitions excited by two variable laser fields in a three-level system. We study the soliton-pair propagation out of resonance and under thermal bath effect. We present general analytical implicit expression of the soliton-pair shape. Furthermore, we show that when the coupling to the environment exceeds a critical value, the soliton-pair propagation through three-level atomic system will be prohibited.

SLOWING LIGHT CONTROL FOR A SOLITON-PAIR

Nadia Boutabba, Hichem Eleuch

We investigate the propagation of a soliton-pair in 3-level atomic system out of resonance. We present an explicit analytical expression of the soliton-pair shape. We show that the speed of the soliton-pair can be controlled. Furthermore, we derive a condition for completely stopping the light.

Soliton propagation in an absorbing three-level atomic system

Hichem Eleuch, Dominique Elser, R. Bennaceur

We present analytic results of soliton shapes propagating in an absorbing three-level atomic system in the lambda configuration which is excited by a CW field at the Stokes transition. We find analytic relations for the control of the propagation velocity which can be influenced by the pulse width and by the intensity and polarization of the CW field.

An optical soliton pair among absorbing three-level atoms

Hichem Eleuch, R. Bennaceur

The motion of a pair of solitons propagating through an absorbing three-level system in the lambda configuration is analysed. In the course of this analytic analysis, the existence condition for solitary wave pairs is derived. This condition allows for two possible velocities of the soliton pair.

Propagation of ultrashort dichromatic solitons in a cascade three-level system

Ji‐Cai Liu, Fen-Fen Guo, Ya-nan Zhao

Propagation of dichromatic femtosecond laser pulses tuned respectively in single-photon resonances with the cascade three-level system is studied. The initial areas of the two pulses are both equal to 2π, which makes them respectively an optical soliton in ideal two-level systems. When the dichromatic solitons are synchronized into the medium, both the temporal shapes and the spectral distributions of the pulses are strongly distorted during propagation. The delay time between the dichromatic solitons plays an important role on the evolution of the fields.

Formation and propagation of coupled ultraslow optical soliton pairs in a cold three-state double- Λ system

Guoxiang Huang, Kaijun Jiang, M. G. Payne +1 more

We investigate the simultaneous formation and propagation of coupled ultraslow optical soliton pairs in a cold, lifetime-broadened three-state double-Lambda atomic system. Starting from the equations of motion of atomic response and two-mode probe-control electromagnetic fields, we derive coupled nonlinear Schrödinger equations that govern the nonlinear evolution of the envelopes of the probe fields in this four-wave mixing scheme by means of the standard method of multiple scales. We demonstrate that for weak probe fields and with suitable operation conditions, a pair of coupled optical solitons moving with remarkably slow propagating velocity can be established in such a highly resonant atomic medium. The key elements to such a shape preserving, well matched yet interacting soliton pair is the balance between dispersion effect and self- and cross-phase modulation effects of the system.
