The Relationship between Light Storage Efficiency and Repumping Intensity in Cold Atom Medium
Zhang Zhi-yin
Abstract
By using electromagnetically induced transparency(EIT),we realized the optical signal storage and release in 87 Rb cold atom medium.We have got the curve of storage efficiency as a function of the repumping intensity in cooling system.Experimental results showed that:the storage efficiency increases with the repumping intensity,when it increases from zero;if the repumping intensity exceeds a certain intensity,the storage efficiency begins to decrease.A simple analysis interpreted the relationship between storage efficiency and the repumping intensity.
