Resonant forward-scattered field in the high-saturation regime: Elastic and inelastic contributions

Chang Chi Kwong, Thomas Wellens, Kanhaiya Pandey +1 more

We measure the resonant forward scattering of light by a highly saturated atomic medium through the flashes emitted immediately after an abrupt extinction of the probe beam. The experiment is done in a dilute regime where the phenomena are well captured using the independent scattering approximation. Comparing our measurements to a model based on Maxwell-Bloch equations, our experimental results are consistent with contributions from only the elastic component, whereas the attenuation of the coherent transmission power is linked to the elastic and inelastic scatterings. In the large saturation regime and at the vicinity of the atomic resonance, we derive an asymptotic expression relating the elastic scattering power to the forward-scattered power.

Inelastic light scattering by dipolar excitons

V. M. Kovalev, Alexander V. Chaplik

The cross section for inelastic light scattering by a system of spatially indirect excitons is calculated. It is shown that there are two resonant scattering channels, one related to the transitions via the vacuum and the other via the two-exciton states of the crystal, and their contributions to the scattering amplitude cancel each other. As a result, there is no resonance enhancement of light scattering by excitons for photon energies in the vicinity of the band gap.

Two- and three-body problem with Floquet-driven zero-range interactions

A. G. Sykes, Haggai Landa, Dmitry S. Petrov

We study the two-body scattering problem in the zero-range approximation with a sinusoidally driven scattering length and calculate the relation between the mean value and amplitude of the drive for which the effective scattering amplitude is resonantly enhanced. In this manner we arrive at a family of curves along which the effective scattering length diverges but the nature of the corresponding Floquet-induced resonance changes from narrow to wide. Remarkably, on these curves the driving does not induce heating. To study the effect of these resonances on the three-body problem we consider one light and two heavy particles with driven heavy-light interaction in the Born--Oppenheimer approximation and find that the Floquet driving can be used to tune the three-body and inelasticity parameters.
