Abstract

Abstract We experimentally studied the electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) in cesium (Cs) vapors under a three-level V -configuration system. Two independent diode lasers were employed in locked and scanning mode, respectively, for pumping and probing the atomic media. A probe laser was scanned across 6 S 1/2 ( F = 4) to all subsutructures of 6 P 3/2 ( F ′ = 5 , F ′ = 4 and F ′ = 3 ) and the pump was locked at F ′ = 5 or F ′ = 4 or F ′ = 3 of 6 P 3/2 . A good agreement of the experimental results with theoretical simulations was observed. The intensity and magnetic field dependence of the EIT spectrum in a V -type system of Cs atoms was also studied.

Experimental investigation of absorption and dispersion in multi-V-type cesium atomic system

Jianming Zhao, Yanting Zhao, Lirong Wang +2 more

Electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) is observed in a three-level multi-V-type system in cesium vapor at room temperature. The absorption and dispersion properties are measured under the condition that the coupling frequency is exactly resonance with transition 6S1/2(F=4) to 6P3/2(F'=3) while the probe frequency is scanned across the transitions from the 6S1/2(F=4) to all structures of the 6P3/2. The effects of the intensity of the pumping beam on EIT signal are investigated. The simple theory model was presented and the results of the experiment agree with the simple theoretical analysis.

Multiple electromagnetically-induced transparency of hyperfine levels in cesium 6S1/2 -6P3/2 -8S1/2 ladder-type system

Baodong Yang, Gao Jing, Wang Jie +2 more

Based on the cesium 6S1/2 -6P3/2 -8S1/2 ladder-type system, electromagnetically-induced transparency (EIT) is further investigated in a room-temperature vapor cell. When the probe laser is locked to one of the hyperfine transitions between the ground state 6S1/2 (F=3) and the intermediate state 6P3/2 while the coupling laser scans the transition between the intermediate state 6P3/2 and the excited state 8S1/2, the EIT spectrum has a flat background improving the spectral resolution. The theoretically calculated EIT spectral profiles from a multi-level ladder-type model are consistent well with the obtained experimental phenomena.

Electromagnetically induced transparency without a Doppler background in a multilevel ladder-type cesium atomic system

Baodong Yang, Jing Gao, Tiancai Zhang +1 more

We present an investigation of electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) without Doppler background due to a locked probe laser. The EIT is theoretically studied based on a multilevel ladder-type cesium atomic system 6${S}_{1/2}$--6${P}_{3/2}$--8${S}_{1/2}$ in a room-temperature vapor cell. The experimental results agree with the theoretical calculations. Compared with the traditional EIT spectra with a Doppler profile limiting the spectral resolution for keeping the coupling laser locked and scanning the probe laser, these EIT spectra with the probe laser locked and the coupling laser scanned have a flat background, which seem be of great benefit for applications such as the measurement of hyperfine intervals between excited states, the study of highly excited Rydberg states, laser-frequency stabilization, etc.

Frequency stabilization of a diode laser using electromagnetically induced transparency in a V-configuration cesium atom

Ayan Ray, Swarupananda Pradhan, K. G. Manohar +1 more

An electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) signal is observed in a V-type energy level scheme in a cesium vapor cell at room temperature. The effects of frequency detuning and the intensity of the pump laser on the EIT signal have been investigated. The performance of the probe-diode laser system, which is frequency stabilized on the EIT signal by using electrical feedback, is explored. The first derivative of the EIT signal offers a steeper slope and better S/N ratio for laser frequency stabilization than that of the Doppler-free hyperfine and crossover resonances. A comparative study of the frequency stability of an external-cavity diode laser stabilized at EIT and at the crossover resonance is presented. The square root of the Allan variance (σ) vs. integration time (τ) plot shows about a tenfold improvement in the frequency stability of the EIT-locked laser (σ ∼ 2.043 × 10 −13 τ −1/2 ) over that of the crossover-locked laser under a short integration time (1–10 ms), whereas a twofold improvement is found under a long integration time (∼1 s).

Observation of the Electromagnetically Induced Transparency and Dispersion-like Structure in Trapped Cs Atoms

Kyoung-Dae Kim, Mi-Rang Kwon, Jung Bog Kim +1 more

We report experiemtnal results demonstrating the electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) in trapped Cs atoms. EIT occurs at the Λ-type configuration where the re0-pumping laser simultaneously plays a role as the coupling laser in the presence of a magneto-optical trapping and weak magnetic fields. Dependences of EIT signal on both the intensity and the detuning of the coupling laser were investigated. Linear absorption spectra for cold cesium atoms in the magneto-optical trap have been observed and shown the pronounced dispersion-like structure with sub-natural linewidth of 1 MHz due to the cooling laser.

Electromagnetically induced transparency of Rydberg atoms in modulated laser fields

Yang Zhi-Wei, Jiao Yue-Chun, Xiaoxuan Han +2 more

Rydberg atoms, with large principal quantum number n, have been widely investigated in recent years due to their peculiar properties, such as big sizes, long lifetimes and strong interactions with fields and other Rydberg atoms. Rydberg atoms are very sensitive to external fields due to their large polarizabilities scaling as n7.These make Rydberg atoms an ideal candidate for the quantum information, the many-body interaction, etc.In this work, we investigate the Rydberg atoms using electromagneticlly induced transparency (EIT) in a ladder three-level system. The EIT is a quantum interference effect between two excitation path-ways driven by two laser fields. The main idea is performed in a room temperature cesium vapor cell, where the probe laser frequency is modulated. The ground state (6P1/2), excited state (6P3/2), and Rydberg state (nS1/2) constitute a Rydberg three-level system, in which the probe laser is fixed to the 6S1/2 (F = 4)6P3/2 (F = 5) transition by saturated absorption spectrum technique, whereas the coupling laser is scanned across the 6P3/249S1/2 transition. We detect the demodulated EIT signal with the lock-in amplifier (SR830). The modulated EIT signal shows a two-peak structure. The measured spacing between two peaks increases with the frequency detuning, caused by the modulation amplitude, and half the spacing between the peak-to-peak is nearly 1.67 times the modulation amplitude of the probe laser; the measured result shows that the splitting is independent of the modulation frequency. The experimental results are in agreement with the theoretical calculations. The results in our work can be used for real-time monitoring of the laser-line profiles and the fluctuation of laser frequency.
