Spontaneous emission inhibition from a driven four-level atom in a photonic band gap material

H Zhang, G Q Liu, H Z Zhang

Two models (an upper levels coupling model and a lower levels coupling model) of a four-level atom embedded in a double-band photonic crystal are adopted. The effect of spontaneous emission cancellation of such systems embedded in different reservoirs are investigated. Especially, the "trapping conditions" of such systems in photonic band gap (PBG) reservoirs are discussed for the first time. We also investigate the different quantum interference effects of the lower levels coupling model embedded in an isotropic PBG reservoir. It is interesting that when the trapping conditions are fulfilled, the additional peaks, which result from the contribution of the additional singularities of Laplace transform of the delayed Green function of the isotropic PBG modes, are eliminated.PACS Nos.: 42.50.Gy, 42.50.Ct, 42.70.Qs

Quantum interference in absorption and dispersion of a four-level atom in a double-band photonic crystal

Samad Roshan Entezar, H. Tajalli

The probe absorption-dispersion spectrum of a double V-type four-level atom in a double-band photonic crystal is investigated. In the model used, the double V-type transitions are, respectively, coupled by the free vacuum modes and the photonic band gap modes, leading to the two possible types of quantum interference. Three types of zero absorption (transparency) appear in this model. In the first type, there exist two zeroes at the band edge frequencies in the case of isotropic photonic band gap. In the second type, a zero emerges at the middle frequency of two upper levels in the case that the quantum interference takes place in both V-type transitions. Finally, in the third type, a zero occurs at or around the middle frequency of two upper levels in the case that the quantum interference takes place only in the V-type transitions coupled to the free vacuum modes. Ultimately, the probe absorption-dispersion spectrum in the case of the single-band photonic band gap reservoirs compared to those of the double-band photonic band gap reservoirs. The results show that the dispersion property of the system depends on the two types of the quantum interference and the density of states of the photonic band gap reservoir.
