TWO PHOTON TRANSITIONS IN THE OPTOGALVANIC SPECTRUM OF NEON
Seventeen two-photon transitions for neon have been observed in the 580- 635 nm spectral region for use in the spectroscopic study of its higher excited levels, which are not accessible by one-photon absorption. To compare the two and one-photon absorption signals originating from the same lower level, an effort was made to record single-photon optogalvanic spectrum in the available wavele...
متن کاملExactly Solvable Model for Nonlinear Pulse Propagation in Optical Fibers
The nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) equation is a fundamental model for the nonlinear propagation of light pulses in optical fibers. We consider an integrable generalization of the NLS equation which was first derived by means of bi-Hamiltonian methods in [A. S. Fokas, Phys. D 87 (1995), 145–150]. The purpose of the present paper is threefold: (a) We show how this generalized NLS equation arises as...
متن کاملDark pulses for resonant two-photon transitions
We investigate the excitation of an atom or molecule via two-photon absorption induced by an ultrashort laser pulse in the perturbative intensity regime. We show that the probability for a resonant transition, i.e., with an intermediate state within the spectral width of the pulse, can be reduced to zero by pulses having a -phase step at a certain detuning from the central frequency. Our theore...
متن کاملTwo-photon adiabatic passage in ultracold Rb interacting with a single nanosecond, chirped pulse
A semiclassical, four-level model of a nanosecond, chirped pulse interacting with all optically accessible hyperfine states in an ultracold alkali atom, e.g., the Rb, is analyzed aiming at population inversion within 5S1/2 electronic state. The nature of two-photon adiabatic passage performed by a single pulse having the bandwidth prior to chirping significantly narrower than the hyperfine spli...
متن کاملNonlinear pulse propagation: a time-transformation approach.
We present a time-transformation approach for studying the propagation of optical pulses inside a nonlinear medium. Unlike the conventional way of solving for the slowly varying amplitude of an optical pulse, our new approach maps directly the input electric field to the output one, without making the slowly varying envelope approximation. Conceptually, the time-transformation approach shows th...
