Abstract

The principle of electromagnetically induced transparency in a three-level atomic system is studied by means of the semi-classical theory.Electromagnetically induced transparency is one of the quantum interference effects between the external field and the atomic system.The explanations of these phenomena are given by using the dressed states.Additionally,the subluminal light is accompanied by electromagnetically induced transparency.

Explanations of the Physics Mechanism on Electromagnetically Induced Transparency

Wang Yu-ping

The physics mechanism of electromagnetically induced transparency in a Λ-type three-level atomic system was investigated by means of the semiclassical theory.The electromagnetically induced transparency is an effect of quantum interference between two laser-induced channels when the laser field interacts with an atom.The explanations of these phenomena are given by using the dark state,the dressed states and the density-matrix equations.

Multiple electromagnetically induced transparency in a five-level atomic system

Xiao Hu

The absorption properties in an inverted-tripod scheme atomic system driven by the coherent fields are investigated by means of the semiclassical theory.The result obtained by means of numerical method indicates that by adjusting the Rabi frequencies of the coherent fields,there appear triple,double,single electromagnetically induced transparency(EIT).In the triple EIT,the location of transparent windows can be controlled by adjusting the detunings for the coherent fields,and changes continuously,i.e.there exist a series of continuous frequencies for the probe field propagating in an atomic medium without absorption in a certain range.Finally,the explanations of these phenomena are given by using the dressed states.

Manipulation of multiple electromagnetically induced two-photon transparency in a six-level atomic system

Jia Wen-Zhi, Shun-Jin Wang

In the five-level K-type atomic system, by using another control field to couple the excited level of the coupling transition to the sixth higher excited level, a six-level atomic system is constructed. In this system, the multiple electromagnetically induced two-photon transparency has been investigated. What is more, if choosing the parameters of the control fields properly the triple transparency window will reduce to a double one which means that the multiple electromagnetically induced two-photon transparency can be manipulated in this system. The physical interpretation of these phenomena is given in terms of the dressed states and the dark states.

Interference between competing pathways in the interaction of three-level atoms and radiation

Tony Abi-Salloum, Lorenzo M. Narducci

The appearance of quantum interference in the microscopic world is one of the deepest mysteries at the very root of quantum mechanics. When light interacts with atoms, it can induce transitions by way of distinct but indistinguishable pathways and yield unexpected and often counter-intuitive results. Electromagnetically Induced Transparency (EIT), Coherent Population Trapping (CPT), and Lasing Without Inversion (LWI) are modern examples of phenomena where the traditional rules that govern absorption and dispersion undergo major revisions. Spectacular consequences of this new state of affairs include the ability of a light beam to propagate through a normally absorbing medium with little or no absorption, or to undergo amplification even if the active medium is not prepared in a state of population inversion. Light signals have been shown to travel with strongly subluminal group velocities of only a handful of meters per second and, even, to propagate at speed greater than the ordinary speed of light, but without violation of causality or of the established rules that control the transfer of optical information through space. Three-level atoms can interact with two coherent electromagnetic fields according to three different systems, known as Cascade, Lambda and Vee systems. The propagation of a weak probe field can be deeply affected by the presence of a second stronger beam, the so-called coupling field. Transparency windows, splitting of emission and absorption lines and enormously enhanced dispersion have been documented in numerous experiments. In this thesis we explore the physical origin of the transparency induced in these systems by the simultaneous interplay of the coupling and probe fields. We focus our attention on the Cascade system and study its two configurations, Cascade-EIT and Cascade-AT. We develop a variety of complementary approaches for the description of these two configurations, some semiclassical and others fully quantum mechanical. We prove the existence of quantum interference in Electromagnetically Induced Transparency and also the surprising absence of interference in a closely related phenomenon, known as the Autler-Townes effect. Finally we complement the traditional machinery of theoretical quantum optics with techniques borrowed from quantum scattering theory, and offer what we believe is the most convincing physical evidence for the appearance, or for the absence, of quantum interference effects.
