Electromagnetically induced transparency in a sodium vapour cell

Stanislav B. Baluschev, Norbert Leinfellner, Eugeny Korsunsky +1 more

We report on an investigation of electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) in sodium vapour. In our experiment, sodium atoms are excited on the D1-line with laser radiation containing two components with a frequency difference close to that of the two hyperfine ground states of sodium (1.772 GHz). Such an excitation leads to coherent trapping of atomic population in “dark” superpositional states, which dramatically reduces the absorption of light. A frequency transparency window is measured to have a subnatural width, which is a clear indication of coherent population trapping. Dependence of EIT on laser frequencies and intensities, on the magnetic field strength as well as on the temperature of the sodium vapour is studied.

High resolution electromagnetically induced transparency spectroscopy of Rydberg ^87Rb atom in a magnetic field

Hong Cheng, H. M. Wang, S. S. Zhang +3 more

We have studied the high resolution spectroscopy of Rydberg state 87Rb in a ladder-type electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) configuration at room temperature. A highly excited Rydberg atom is nearly degenerate for its hyperfine states but this degeneracy will be broken by an applied magnetic field, resulting in a spectral splitting in a coupled basis. In our ladder-type EIT experiment, we observed the high resolution spectral splitting of Rydberg atoms in an external magnetic field with two different optical polarization combinations of σ+ − σ+ and σ+ − σ− for probe and coupling laser beams. A strict theory has been set up to explain the observed spectral line position and intensity accurately considering the Zeeman effects of three EIT-concerned states all in the coupled basis. Specially for the Rydberg state, we can transform its wavefunction back into the decoupled basis for the spectral line assignment.

Broadband quantum memory using electromagnetically induced transparency in atomic medium

Sumit Bhushan, Vikas Singh Chauhan, Raghavan K. Easwaran

In this paper, we describe a theoretical design for the realization of a high capacity (bandwidth) atomic quantum memory based on wavelength division multiplexing and electromagnetically induced transparency in adjacently placed 87Rb vapour cells. Magnetic fields produced by Helmholtz coils are used to tailor the atomic energy levels in the vapour cells and hence storage of various probe signals of different wavelengths becomes possible. We give a detailed description of the proposed experimental setup. We have estimated a very high bandwidth of 50 MHz for our design with a delay bandwidth product of approximately 530. Our prototype design is for storing five different wavelength probe pulses which could be extended to larger values in principle.
