Abstract

We propose a new simple scheme of atom localization based on the interference of double dark resonances in which the atom interacts with a classical standing-wave field and find the localization property is significantly improved.

Atom localization via interference of dark resonances

Chengpu Liu, Shangqing Gong, Dongchao Cheng +2 more

A scheme of atom localization based on the interference of resonance of double-dark states is proposed, in which the atom interacts with a classical standing-wave field. It is found that the localization property is significantly improved due to the interaction of double-dark resonances. It is realized that the atom is localized just at the nodes of the standing-wave field with higher precision. Moreover, an improvement by a factor of 2 in the detecting probability of a single atom within the subwavelength domain can be achieved by adjusting the probe-field detuning. This scheme shows more advantages than other schemes of atom localization.

Two-dimensional atom localization via interacting double-dark resonances

Ren-Gang Wan, Jun Kou, Jiang Li +2 more

A scheme of two-dimensional (2D) atom localization based on the interference of double-dark resonances is proposed, in which the N-type atom interacts with two orthogonal standing-wave fields. Because of the spatial-dependent atom–field interaction, 2D atom localization can be realized via measuring the upper state population or the probe absorption. We obtain that the maximum probability of finding an atom at a particular position in a wavelength domain (λ1×λ2) is 1/2 when the atom is localized at the intersection of the antinodes of quadrants I and III of the standing-wave plane. This scheme shows more advantages than other schemes of 2D atom localization.

Atom localization via electromagnetically induced transparency

H. Tajalli, Mostafa Sahrai

We propose a simple scheme of atom localization based on probe absorption in which the atom interacts with a classical standing-wave field. By employing a three-level A system, it is shown that the position of an atom inside the standing-wave field depends on the detuning of the coupling field, detuning of the probe laser field, and the position-dependent Rabi frequency of the coupling field.

Atom localization via resonance fluorescence

Sajid Qamar, Shi-Yao Zhu, Muhammad Suhail Zubairy

We propose a simple scheme of atom localization based on resonance fluorescence from a standing-wave field. The Rabi frequency is position dependent and therefore the spontaneously emitted photon carries the information of the atomic center-of-mass motion. This leads to atom localization even during the flight through the standing-wave field.

Localizing an atom via quantum interference

Emmanuel Paspalakis, P. L. Knight

We show that a three-level $\ensuremath{\Lambda}$-type atom interacting with a classical standing-wave field resonantly coupling one transition and a weak probe laser field resonantly coupling the second transition can be localized provided the population of the upper state is observed.
