Control of Laser Pulses Shape Using Coherent Population Trapping

Abstract

In the paper we show how can control temporal shape of laser pulses using the phenomenon of a coherent population trapping (CPT). Temporal compression is demonstrated as a special case of pulse tailoring,. In addition, it is discussed manipulating of a temporal shape of retrieved pulse recorded on basis of CPT.

Temporal shape manipulation of intense light pulses by coherent population trapping

Vasily G. Arkhipkin, Ivan V. Timofeev

We describe how to control the temporal shape of adiabaton using peculiarities of propagation dynamics under coherent population trapping. Temporal compression is demonstrated as a special case of pulse shaping. The general case of unequal oscillator strengths of two optical transitions in an atom is considered.

Coherent control of temporal pulse shaping by electromagnetically induced transparency

Roberto Buffa, Stefano Cavalieri, Marco V. Tognetti

We present the coherent control of the temporal shape of laser pulses obtained by exploiting the propagation dynamics of electromagnetically induced transparency. Temporal compression, as a special case of pulse tailoring, is discussed. We envisage applications in nonlinear optics processes and control of pulse shapes in the vacuum ultraviolet spectral region.

Coherent population trapping via a continuum with a train of ultrashort pulses

Elena Kuznetsova, Roman L. Kolesov, Olga A. Kocharovskaya

We consider the coherent population trapping effect with a train of ultrashort pulses in a $\ensuremath{\Lambda}$-type system with two bound states and a continuum replacing the upper state. Population transfer to the continuum can be totally suppressed provided that the splitting between the bound states is a multiple of the pulse repetition rate. Compared to the traditional case with only two laser fields coupling the bound states to the continuum, CPT with a pulse train allows one to avoid incoherent population losses due to interaction of the fields with ``wrong'' transitions, which results in only partial suppression of ionization. A method of suppression of excited-state absorption of pumping radiation in laser crystals, with pumping in the form of the pulse train, is proposed. As a particular example pumping dynamics of a ${\mathrm{Ti}}^{3+}:{\mathrm{YAlO}}_{3}$ crystal using this technique is numerically analyzed.

Optimal control of transient sum-frequency mixing processes

Roberto Buffa

An optimal control technique is applied to design a pair of input laser pulses that control the temporal shape of an optical pulse generated in a process of transient sum-frequency mixing. Specific calculations performed for a model crystal in the case of fifth-harmonic generation are discussed as an example. The efficiency of the generation process is enhanced by the use of temporally tailored laser pulses.

Coherent population trapping as a base for modulation multifrequency radiation

Е. В. Вознюк, Y.P. Machehin

This paper presents the search for physical mechanisms and on their basis of selective modulation of the optical frequencies in a distribution of multi-frequency laser radiation is one of the most important problems whose solution will greatly expand the capabilities of existing systems DWDM. One well-known physical effects, providing effective selective interaction of optical radiation with a material medium is the interaction of electromagnetic fields with three-level, or Λ systems. In these three-level system is observed fundamental physical phenomenon a coherent population trapping (CPT). One of the first practical examples of the CPT is to stabilize the emission frequency of optical frequency standards for optical bench, which is a resonance of CPT.
