Role of different type of sub-systems in doubly driven -system in 87 Rb

Abstract

The well known Lambda-system using two ground state hyperfine levels, F=1 and F=2 of 5S1/2 and one hyperfine level, F=2 of excited state of 5P3/2 of 87Rb has been recently studied using two counter- propagating control lasers [1]. The experiment shows conversion of electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) into electromagnetically induced absorption (EIA) because the doubly driven Lambda-system forms various sub-systems. We here present detailed theoretical study of the different possible sub-systems created by this configuration. We also explore the possibility of tuning the strength of individual sub-systems by changing the polarization of the control lasers.

Role of different types of subsystems in a doubly driven Λ system in 87 Rb

The well-known $\ensuremath{\Lambda}$ system using two ground-state hyperfine levels, ${F}_{g}=1$ and ${F}_{g}=2$ of $5{S}_{1/2}$, and one hyperfine level, ${F}_{e}=2$ of excited state of $5{P}_{3/2}$ of ${}^{87}$Rb, has been recently studied using two counterpropagating control lasers [Sapam Ranjita Chanu, Kanhaiya Pandey, and Vasant Natarajan, Europhys. Lett. 98, 44009 (2012)]. The experiment shows conversion of electromagnetically induced transparency into electromagnetically induced absorption because the doubly driven $\ensuremath{\Lambda}$ system forms various subsystems. We here present a detailed theoretical study of the different possible subsystems created by this configuration. We also explore the possibility of tuning the strength of individual subsystems by changing the polarization of the control lasers.

Effects of neighboring transitions on electromagnetically induced absorption and transparency in 87 Rb atoms with respect to varying hyperfine spacings

Zeeshan Ali Safdar Jadoon, Aisar-ul Hassan, Heung‐Ryoul Noh +1 more

Effects of neighboring transitions through Doppler broadening on electromagnetically induced absorption (EIA) and electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) of the degenerate two-level system at the F g =2→ F e =1,2, and 3 transitions of the 87 Rb D2 line have been investigated. Two different polarization configurations, such as linear parallel and linear perpendicular polarizations of coupling and probe lasers, have been studied. We study the significant variation of EIT and EIA due to the effect of the neighboring transitions via artificial variation of the hyperfine spacings of the 5 P 3/2 state. We have a new observation such as EIT instead of EIA due to the neighboring effect, even in the case of closed systems such as F g =2→ F e =3 of 87 Rb for the linear parallel configuration, for the first time to our best knowledge. The observed spectra match well with theoretically calculated spectra. EIAs for the open F g =2→ F e =1 and 2 transitions at the linear perpendicular polarization are observed due to neighboring effects. This system may be applied to optical switching systems for future quantum processing application.

Electromagnetically induced absorption and transparency in a closed lambda-shaped four-level system

Xiaoli Li, Lianshui Zhang, Baozhu Yang +1 more

A quasi-lambda four-level system shows both electromagnetically induced absorption (EIA) and electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT). In addition to an optical coupling field and a probing field, there is a radio field which interacts with two excited state hyperfine levels of the quasi-lambda four-level system consisting of two excited state hyperfine levels and two ground state hyperfine levels. If a driving field which interacts with two ground state hyperfine levels is introduced, the quasi-lambda four-level system is modified to a closed-lambda four-level system. The behaviors of the driving field and radio field are studied in this paper and it is seen that the occurence of EIA or EIT and the whole probing properties are controlled by the Rabi frequencies of both driving field and radio field.

Conversion between electromagnetically induced transparency and absorption in a three-level lambda system

Sapam Ranjita Chanu, Kanhaiya Pandey, Vasant Natarajan A

We show that it is possible to change from a subnatural electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) feature to a subnatural electromagnetically induced absorption (EIA) feature in a (degenerate) three-level Λ system. The change is effected by turning on a second control beam counter-propagating with respect to the first beam. We observe this change in the D 2 line of Rb in a room temperature vapor cell. The observations are supported by density-matrix analysis of the complete sublevel structure including the effect of Doppler averaging, but can be understood qualitatively as arising due to the formation of N -type systems with the two control beams. Since many of the applications of EIT and EIA rely on the anomalous dispersion near the resonances, this introduces a new ability to control the sign of the dispersion.

Superposition of Mollow profile and electromagnetically induced transparency or absorption

Yang Li-jun

The transparency and absorption of the Λ-type three-level scheme driven by two coupling fields were investigated.Mollow profile was obtained in a two-level scheme where a strong coupling field and a probing field were applied on the same optical transition between excited state and ground state.There was another coupling field which drived excited state to another ground states hyperfine level in this paper.The Λ-type three-level scheme driven by two coupling fields was introduced,and some new quantum coherent phenomena were given.It can be seen that there is superposition of Mollow profile and electromagnetically induced transparency(EIT) or electromagnetically induced absorption(EIA).The dependence of the position of EIT or EIA on Rabi frequencies and frequency detunings of two coupling fields is investigated.The results can be explained by dressed-state formalism.
