Large Kerr index with amplification in an open four-level atomic system with twofold lower levels

This paper presents a new freedom, which is the result of atomic injection and exit rates from a cavity associated with an open system, thus leading to a remarkable giant Kerr nonlinearity with applications in all-optical switching. The influence of atomic injection and exit rate from the cavity on nonlinear susceptibility of an open four-level Λ-type atomic system with twofold lower levels is investigated. It is found that large Kerr nonlinearity accompanied with probe gain can be obtained by adjusting the atomic injection rates and exit rate from the cavity, which is completely different from those presented in previous closed atomic systems. Phase control of Kerr nonlinearity in such an open atomic system is then studied.

The Research of Electromagnetically induced transparency and giant Kerr nonlinearity in a four-level Y-type atomic system

Yanpeng Zhang

A theoretical investigation is carried out into the effect of applied coherent fields on electromagnetically induced transparency(EIT) and Kerr nonlinearity in the four-level Y-type energy atom system.It is found that the Absorption curve of the atom system changes from one EIT window to a gain interval which has two transparency points when the intensity of coupling field and pumping field changes from equality to inequality.The position of transparency points,the magnitude of gain value together with the width of gain interval are all closely connected with the changed Rabi frequency of applied fields.It is also found that Kerr nonlinearity is enhanced but accompanied by linear Absorption when applied fields are all weak and their relative intensity reduces.When the intensity of applied fields is enlarged,Kerr nonlinearity is enhanced significantly and its peak moves to the position of transparency point with the enlargement of their relative intensity.That is to say,giant Kerr nonlinearity accompanied by vanishing linear Absorption is obtained.Finally,we find that the effect of the intensity variation of the pumping field on the enhancement of Kerr nonlinearity is more remarkable than that of the coupling field.

Kerr nonlinearity and EIT in a double Lambda type atomic system

Hamid Reza Hamedi, Ali Khaledi‐Nasab, Ali Raheli

The giant Kerr nonlinearity in a four-level double Lambda type atomic system is theoretically predicted. We find that an enhanced Kerr nonlinearity can be achieved just by the intensity of coupling filed that lies within the transparency window. It is also shown that the giant Kerr nonlinearity with reduced absorption can be achieved by the quantum interference mechanisms.
