Dynamics of Optical Bistability with Kerr-nonlinear Blackbody Radiation Reservoir

Yasser Amoun Sharaby

Abstract In this paper we investigate the nonlinear dynamics for optical bistabile (OB) model of homogeneously broadened two-level atomic medium interacting with a single mode of the ring cavity in the presence of a Kerr-nonlinear blackbody (KNB) radiation reservoir. We show the impact of the relative temperature of the reservoir on the transition between the dynamical states via bifurcation diagrams that represents the relation between maximum values of the output field and the relative temperature for fixed input field. Specifically, decreasing the relative temperature (T b ) causes the system to bifurcate from periodic to chaotic behavior and in turn reverts back to periodic behavior with further decrease of T b . Varying atomic detuning leads to a change in the nature of the dynamic transition between the system’s states from self pulsing to chaotic behavior.

Optical Bistability in a Controllable Giant Self-Kerr Nonlinear Gaseous Medium under Electromagnetically Induced Transparency and Doppler Broadening

Phuong Le Thi Minh, Doai Le Van, Khoa Dinh Xuan +1 more

We study optical bistability (OB) in a controllable giant self-Kerr nonlinear atomic gaseous medium placed in a unidirectional ring cavity. The medium is coherently excited by strong controlling field and a weak probe laser field under electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) and Doppler broadening. In a weak field limit of the probe light, an analytic OB equation for the probe light field is derived as an analytic function of parameters of the controlling field and temperature of the medium. It is shown that OB characters can be manipulated with the parameters due to the controllable properties of the self-Kerr nonlinearity. Furthermore, enhancement of the Kerr nonlinearity reduces the switching intensity threshold and width of the OB.
