Integer and fractional electromagnetically induced Talbot effects in a ladder-type coherent atomic system

ladder-type system. By launching a probe laser into a periodically modulated lattice constructed by two crossed coupling fields with a small angle inside the rubidium vapor, a high-resolution diffraction pattern is obtained. The diffraction pattern is reproduced completely at detection positions of an integer multiple of twice the Talbot lengths. Meanwhile, the fractional Talbot effect, presented as complicated subimages at special positions, is also clearly observed. Furthermore, the theoretical simulations are conducted and agree well with the experimental results. These results pave the way for studying the control of light dynamics based on the periodically modulated medium.

Talbot effect based on a Raman-induced grating

Vasily G. Arkhipkin, S. A. Myslivets

We theoretically study the Talbot effect resulting from Raman-induced grating based on periodic spatial modulation of the Raman gain and dispersion in the field of a standing pump wave. Features of integer and fractional Talbot effects are demonstrated for one- and two-dimensional (1D and 2D) Raman-induced gratings. It is shown that the intensity of diffraction images can increase due to Raman amplification in the grating. Glass-shaped diffraction patterns are demonstrated for 2D gratings. It is also shown that in the vicinity of the Talbot planes there are planes in which the diffraction patterns are spatially compressed and the intensity becomes greater. The results expand the possibility of using the Talbot effect in various applications.

Second-order Talbot self-imaging effect in the time domain

Hong-Guo Li, Ruixue Zhang, Zhan-Dong Liu +1 more

Different from classical Talbot self-imaging, second-order spatial Talbot effect is a kind of second-order imaging, in which the self-imaging of an object is observed through intensity correlation measurement. Here, in terms of space-time duality, we investigate the temporal counterpart of second-order Talbot self-imaging with temporally incoherent light. Our work shows that second-order Talbot effect in the time domain is related to the joint dispersion of light pulse in dispersive medium. Particularly, based on the discrete Fourier transformation, the fractional Talbot self-imaging via intensity correlation doesn't generally possess a definite fractional period, which contradicts some articles' results. Our results may be useful for implementing the repetition-rate-multiplication technique and remotely transmitting the periodic temporal signals robustly.
