Polychromatic Kerr nonlinearity within electromagnetically induced transparency window

We study the nonlinear effect in a three-level atomic system in Λ configuration. As two or more fields are confined within the common electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) window, they directly disturb EIT dark state at the same time, which leads to the self- and cross-Kerr nonlinear interactions. Our scheme is different from the existed schemes based on three-level or multilevel systems only existing single type of nonlinear interactions. In the common EIT windows, the self- and cross-Kerr nonlinearities are established with suppressed linear absorption and our scheme can be generalized polychromatic Kerr nonlinearity. Because the atoms are almost trapped in the ground states and the atom population becomes unchanged, the scheme is robust to the atomic spontaneous emission. Our scheme is a promising avenue for preparation of squeezing and entanglement .

A giant self-Kerr nonlinearity using phase-sensitive excitation in a closed three-level atomic system

Ayyappan J, T. Beena

Abstract A third-order nonlinear response is investigated theoretically using a closed lambda system. In this scheme, a pair of optical fields and a microwave field connect three hyperfine levels in a cyclic fashion, rendering the atomic response sensitive to the relative phase of all three fields. Changing the relative phase, we can suppress the linear response of the probe field and enhance its third order self-Kerr nonlinear response using the underlying electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) effect. The resultant giant self-Kerr nonlinear response is comparable to or exceeding that found in atomic systems at room temperature. Most importantly, we show that the self-Kerr nonlinear response at an optical frequency can be controlled using the phase and amplitude of a frequency-separated microwave field.
