Abstract

A V-type four-level atomic system has been investigated for realizing left handedness.It is shown that the negative refractive index can be achieved not only in the condition of weaker probe field and stronger coupling field,but also in the condition which the probe field and the coupling field are in the same order.The negative refractive index band is enlarged in the situation of stronger probe field and left handedness is enhanced.

Electromagnetically Induced Left Handedness in Y-type Four Level Atomic System

Zhang Zhen-qinga, Zhao Shun-caia

The quantum system with an interaction between a closed Y-type four-level atom and multi-mode light fields is adopted to possess left handedness by means of the technique of quantum coherence. In the representation of interaction, the density matrix method is utilized in view of the rotating-wave approximation and the di-pole approximation.The conclusion of the numerical simulation shows that under the appropriate parameter conditions, the medium can achieve negative permittivity and negative permeability simultaneously (i.e. the left handedness effect happens and the left-handed material is realized.) In the condition of the weak probe field, when the Rabi frequency of probe light increases, the frequency range of the medium to achieve its left-handed effect decreases and the refractive index and absorption coefficient will also changed correspondingly. The medium to affect light absorption and gain in the conditions of the establishment of left -handed effect are also discussed. The paper can be concluded that, in the conditions of weak probe field, the electro-magnetic induction can be used to achieve the left-handed effect of the medium, which extends the implementation of left-handed materials in the experiment, and extends the application field of electro-magnetic induction.

Electromagnetically induced negative refractive index in a V-type four-level atomic system

张红军, 钮月萍, 龚尚庆

We propose a scheme for realizing negative refractive index in a V-type four-level atomic system. It is shown that the negative refractive index can be achieved in a wide frequency band based on the effect of quantum coherence. It is also found that the frequency band of negative refractive index and the absorption property of left-handed material are manipulated by the pump and control fields. Furthermore, left-handed material with reduced absorption is possible by choosing appropriate parameters. (c) 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Electromagnetically induced left handedness in inverted Y-type four level atomic system

Zheng Jun, Liu Zheng-Dong, Zeng Fu-Hua +2 more

The system of inverted Y-type four-level atoms interacting with multi-mode light fields is discussed. Through the mechanism of quantum interference, the relative dielectric permittivity and the relative magnetic permeability will changed remarkably. Using appropriately chosen parameters, the real parts of both the relative dielectric permittivity and the relative magnetic permeability will be negative, and then the left handedness effect happens and the left-handed material is realized. The properties of left-handed materials such as the range of frequencies of the negative refractive index can be manipulated via changing certain parameters of the system.

Negative refractive index in a four-level atomic system

Zhen-Qing Zhang, Zhengdong Liu, Shun‐Cai Zhao +3 more

A closed four-level system in atomic vapour is proposed, which is made to possess left handedness by using the technique of quantum coherence. The density matrix method is utilized in view of the rotating-wave approximation and the effect of a local field in dense gas. The numerical simulation result shows that the negative permittivity and the negative permeability of the medium can be achieved simultaneously (i.e. the left handedness) in a wider frequency band under appropriate parameter conditions. Furthermore, when analysing the dispersion property of the left-handed material, we can find that the probe beam propagation can be controlled from superluminal to subluminal, or vice versa via changing the detuning of the probe field.

Electromagnetically Induced Left Handed-Effect in a Four-Level Atomic System

Xiangyang Zhang

Using matrix equation theory,the properties of the relative dielectric permittivity and the relative magnetic permeability are investigated in a lamda-type four-level atomic system.By the means of numerical method,the real parts of both relative dielectric permittivity and the relative magnetic permeability will be negative simultaneously under the condition of choosing appropriately parameters,so the left handedness effect is obtained.In a certain scope,by adjusting the intensity of Rabi frequencies of the coherent field in the steady state,the ranges of left handedness effect are changed correspondingly.Additionally,the properties of the negative refractive index are studied in detail.

Negative refraction with absorption suppressed by electromagneticly induced transparency in a left-handed atomic system

Shun-Cai Zhao

This paper intends to realize negative refraction with absorption suppressed by the electromagneticly induced transparency(EIT) in a dense four-level atomic system. Without the two equal transition frequencies responding to the probe field, the atomic system displays a negative refraction with the simultaneously negative permittivity and negative permeability(Left-handedness). The response of the probe field is amplified and propagates transparency in some frequency extents. Therefore, our aim for searching the low-loss negative refraction can be achieved in the scheme, given the main applied limitation of the negative refractive materials is the large amount of dissipation and absorption. However, an excessive signal field intensity would increase the absorption near the resonance in our scheme.
