Atom and field squeezed output of three-level atom laser surrounded by a Kerr medium in the electromagnetically induced transparency regime

Ebrahim Ghasemian, Mohammad Kazem Tavassoly

In this paper, we investigate the squeezing properties of the output of an atom laser which consists of an ensemble of three-level atoms in Bose–Einstein condensate state interacting with two quantized and classical laser fields in the presence of a Kerr medium. We represent the Hamiltonian of the system under an electromagnetically induced transparency regime and using the adiabatical elimination process, in terms of angular momentum operators, and then deduce the corresponding analytical state vector with the help of the Dicke model. We give our attention to the evaluation of atomic and field squeezings via numerical calculations. The results show that nonlinear sources in the system, i.e., “interatom collisions” and “Kerr medium,” lead to squeezing of atoms and photons. In this respect, the squeezing values can be controlled by adjusting the strength of interatom collisions, the Kerr medium, as well as other involved parameters in the considered model. Also, the collapse-revival phenomenon as a pure quantum feature can be observed in the behavior of atomic squeezing, while only irregular oscillations appeared in the field squeezing.

Colossal Kerr nonlinearity without absorption in a five-level atomic medium

Nguyen Huy Bang, Le Van Doai

In this work, we present an analytical method to achieve giant Kerr nonlinearity without absorption in a five-level atomic medium. By using iterative perturbation technique on density matrix equations, we have derived the analytical expressions of nonlinear susceptibility and Kerr nonlinear coefficient in the presence of spontaneously generated coherence (SGC) and relative phase between applied laser fields. It shows that, this five-level atomic medium exhibits multiple electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) at three different frequencies, at the same time, the Kerr nonlinear coefficient is enhanced around three transparent spectral regions; in each such EIT region appears a pair of positive-negative peaks of Kerr nonlinear coefficient. In particular, these nonlinear peaks are moved to the center of the EIT windows via SGC. This means that the Kerr nonlinear coefficient is enhanced with completely suppressed absorption at different transparency frequencies. Furthermore, the magnitude and the sign of the Kerr nonlinear coefficient are easily controlled according to the SGC strength, the coupling laser intensity, and the relative phase between applied laser fields. Such a giant nonlinear medium can be useful for photonic devices working in the resonant frequency region without absorption. As a typical application, this giant Kerr nonlinear material has been applied to an interferometer for the formation of optical bistability, and showed the appearance of OB at the resonant frequency with significantly reduced threshold intensity and OB width.

Subluminal and superluminal light pulse propagation under external magnetic field in a vee-type three-level atomic medium

Thai Doan Thanh, Nguyễn Tuấn Anh, Nguyen Thi Thu Hien +4 more

In this work, we investigate subluminal and superluminal light propagation in a vee-type three-level atomic medium under an external magnetic field. The dispersion and absorption behaviors are studied for the cases of absence and presence of a magnetic field. It is found that under an electromagnetically induced transparency condition, the light pulse can be switched between subluminal and superluminal propagation by ON-OFF switching of the magnetic field. Finally, the transient response of the medium is discussed, which shows that the considered scheme has potential applications in magneto-optic switching devices.
