We apply optimal control techniques to maximize the absorptionless index of refraction, the density-dependent piezophotonic switching between absorption and amplification, and the ground-state energy-level-spacing-dependent magnetophotonic switching of susceptibility in a dense medium of coherently prepared three-level systems.

Piezophotonic Switching Due to Local Field Effects in a Coherently Prepared Medium of Three-Level Atoms

Aaron S. Manka, Jonathan P. Dowling, Charles M. Bowden +1 more

We study the effect of near dipole-dipole interactions on the electric susceptibility of a coherently prepared three-level $\ensuremath{\Lambda}$ system. We discuss the influence of atomic nonlinearities on the recently predicted enhancement of the absorptionless index of refraction and inversionless gain due to local field effects [J.P. Dowling and C.M. Bowden, Phys. Rev. Lett. 70 1421 1993] and predict a density dependent, or piezophotonic, switching between absorption and amplification.
