压缩真空中的电磁诱导透明

从主方程出发,通过解析求解密度矩阵非对角元,研究了压缩真空中Λ型三能级原子的电磁诱导透明现象(EIT).研究结果表明:EIT显著地依赖于相干光场的相位、压缩真空的压缩强度和压缩相位.Λ型三能级原子不但有电磁诱导透明和慢光速现象,而且还会表现出对探测光的增益、快光速和反向光速效应;且Λ型三能级原子对探测光场的吸收和增益与探测光强度有关,这与普通真空中不同. 关键词： 压缩真空 电磁诱导透明 增益     

光学-射频场双驱动原子系统中的透明与吸收特性的调控

光与物质的相互作用可以产生许多奇特的量子光学现象,电磁诱导透明和电磁诱导吸收是其中最典型的现象.本文在通常的Λ型三能级系统中引入射频场作用于激发态的精细结构能级之间,组成光学-射频双驱动场共同激发原子的相干跃迁,使系统的吸收特性出现电磁诱导透明和电磁诱导吸收两种量子相干效应.通过讨论双驱动场开启后直到系统达到稳定的量子相干过程,分析电磁诱导透明和电磁诱导吸收随时间的产生和转化,得到两种量子相干现象之间的关联性及对其进行量子调控的方法.     

倒Y型四能级原子系统中电磁诱导透明的相干控制

研究了倒Y型四能级原子系统中相干控制电磁诱导透明.应用微扰理论给出一阶近似条件下,不同控制场原子系统对探测光场响应的解析式及电磁诱导透明窗宽度的解析式.在探测场为弱场时,分析了系统中控制光场强度、耦合光场强度及其失谐量对电磁诱导透明窗的影响.研究发现电磁诱导透明窗随控制光场强度的增强变宽,而随耦合光场强度的增强变窄,当探测光场与耦合光场偏离双光子共振时,透明窗外的吸收增加,透明窗变宽.在弱探测场、弱控制场条件下,分析了初始时刻原子处在相干叠加态时的相对相位、相对强度与探测场和控制场的相对相位等对系统吸收特性及透明窗的影响.结果表明探测场与控制场的相对相位对吸收的影响与相干叠加态中两能级之间几率幅的相对相位对吸收的影响作用相反,系统在两下能级干涉极大时,存在一个很宽的透明带.应用缀饰态理论和量子相干理论对所得结果进行了解释.

Electromagnetically Induced Transparency and Absorption of A Monochromatic Light Controlled by a Radio Frequency Field

Electromagnetically induced transparency and absorption of a monochromatic light controlled by a radio frequency field in the cold multi-Zeeman-sublevel atoms are theoretically investigated. These Zeeman sublevels are coupled by a radio frequency(RF) field. Both electromagnetically induced transparency and electromagnetically induced absorption can be obtained by tuning the frequency of RF field for both the linear polarization and elliptical polarization monochromatic lights. When the transfer of coherence via spontaneous emission from the excited state to the ground state is considered, electromagnetically induced absorption can be changed into electromagnetically induced transparency with the change of intensity of radio field. The transparency windows controlled by the RF field can have potential applications in the magnetic-field measurement and quantum information processing.     

Dicke-Narrowing Spectroscopy of Doubly Dressed Electromagnetically Induced Transparency and Singly Dressed Four-Wave-Mixing in a Confined Atomic System

Dicke-narrowing effect appears both in doubly dressed electromagnetically induced transparency and singly dressed four-wave-mixing lines due to the contribution of slow atoms resulting from de-excited effects of atom-wall collision and transient behaviour of atoms in a confined system. A robust recipe for high resolution spectroscopy of electromagnetically induced transparency dressed by two fields and four-wave-mixing lines comparable with the cold atoms is achievable in a thin vapour cell in experiments.     

Cancellation of stark shifts in optical lattice clocks by use of pulsed Raman and electromagnetically induced transparency techniques

We propose a combination of electromagnetically induced transparency-Raman and pulsed spectroscopy techniques to accurately cancel frequency shifts arising from electromagnetically induced transparency fields in forbidden optical clock transitions of alkaline earth atoms. At appropriate detunings, time-separated laser pulses are designed to trap atoms in coherent superpositions while eliminating off-resonance ac Stark contributions, achieving efficient population transfer up to 60% with inaccuracy <10(-17). Results from the wave-function formalism are confirmed by the density matrix approach.

Absorption spectroscopy of cold caesium atoms confined in a magneto-optical trap

Absorption spectra of cold caesium atoms confined in a magneto-optical trap are measured around D_2 line at 852nm with a weak probe beam. Absorption reduction dip due to electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) effect induced by the cooling/trapping field in a V-type three-level system and a gain peak near the cycling transition are clearly observed. Several mechanisms mixed with EIT effect in a normal V-type three-level system are briefly discussed. A simple theoretical analysis based on a dressed-state model is presented for interpretation of the absorption spectra.     

Simultaneous electromagnetically induced transparency and absorption in thermal atomic medium

A three-level lambda system driven by multicolor control, pump, and probe fields is investigated. The pump and probe fields are derived from the same laser with opposite propagating directions. Due to the Doppler effect, the zero group-velocity atoms face bichromatic fields, while other atoms face trichromatic fields. The atomic medium shows distinct characteristics and exhibits simultaneous electromagnetically induced transparency(EIT) and electromagnetically induced absorption(EIA) at two frequencies. EIT and EIA peaks have a fixed relationship with frequency, which is determined by the Doppler shifts.
