Topical review: Electromagnetically induced transparency

J. P. Marangos

Abstract. The subject of electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) is reviewed in this paper. Emphasis is placed on the experimental work reported in this ®eld since 1990. Theoretical work is also covered, although it is not intended to review all the very numerous recent theoretical treatments on this topic. The basic physical ideas behind EIT are elucidated. The relation of EIT to other processes involving laser-induced atomic coherence, such as coherent population trapping, coherent adiabatic population transfer and lasing without inversion, is discussed. Experimental work is described covering the following topics: EIT with pulsed and continuous-wave sources, lasing without inversion, pulse propagation in a laser dressed medium and EIT in nonlinear optical processes. A full set of references and a bibliography are included. 1.

Coherent population trapping in closed transitions

L. Spani Molella, R.-H. Rinkleff, K. Danzmann

Propagating orthogonally polarized probe and coupling lasers through a Cesium beam we explored two closed transitions. Electromagnetically induced absorption and absorption within transparency were measured on one line, electromagnetically induced transparency on the other one.

Roles of degenerate Zeeman levels in electromagnetically induced transparency

Ying-Cheng Chen, Chung-Wei Lin, Ite A. Yu

We have observed various $\ensuremath{\Lambda}$-type electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) spectra in laser-cooled ${}^{87}\mathrm{Rb}$ atoms of different laser polarization configurations. Unexpected profiles occur in the EIT spectra. We have found the degenerate Zeeman sublevels are responsible for these profiles. The experimental data are in good agreement with the results from the theoretical calculation which takes into account all the 13 Zeeman levels in the $\ensuremath{\Lambda}$ system. Our study demonstrates that Zeeman sublevels play important roles in quantum interference phenomena such as EIT and amplification without population inversion (AWI), and should be taken into account in the analysis of these phenomena.
