Electromagnetically induced absorption and transparency in magneto-optical resonances in elliptically polarized field
نویسندگان
چکیده
Using a 1 → 2 transition as an analytically tractable model, we discuss in detail magneto-optical resonances of both EIA (electromagnetically induced absorption) and EIT (electromagnetically induced transparency) types in the Hanle configuration. The analysis is made for arbitrary rate of depolarizing collisions in the excited state and arbitrary elliptical field polarization. The obtained results clearly show that the main reason for the EIA sub-natural resonance is the spontaneous transfer of anisotropy from the excited level to the ground one. In the EIA case we predict the negative structures in the absortpion resonance at large field detuning. The role of the finite atom-light interaction time is briefly discussed. In addition we study non-trivial peculiarities of the resonance lineshape related to the velocity spread in a gas.

Controlling of Absorption and Dispersion Spectrum via Electromagnetically Induced Transparency
In this paper we examine the absorption and dispersion properties of a weak probe field via Electromagnetically Induced Transparency (EIT) in a four-level system. It is shown that under certain condition, using this model, the absorption cancellation is appeared and the medium becomes transparent to the weak probe field. It will be shown that the controlling of absorption and dispersion spectru...

There has been an increasing interest in all-optical analogues of electromagnetically induced transparency and Autler-Townes splitting. Despite the differences in their underlying physics, both electromagnetically induced transparency and Autler-Townes splitting are quantified by a transparency window in the absorption or transmission spectrum, which often leads to a confusion about its origin....

Electromagnetically induced transparency in multi-level cascade scheme of cold rubidium atoms
We report an experimental investigation of electromagnetically induced transparency in a multilevel cascade system of cold atoms. The absorption spectral profiles of the probe light in the multi-level cascade system were observed in cold Rb atoms confined in a magneto-optical trap, and the dependence of the spectral profile on the intensity of the coupling laser was investigated. The experiment...
متن کاملMimicking electromagnetically induced transparency in the magneto-optical activity of magnetoplasmonic nanoresonators.
We show that the interaction between a plasmonic and a magnetoplasmonic metallic nanodisk leads to the appearance of magneto-optical activity in the purely plasmonic disk induced by the magnetoplasmonic one. Moreover, at specific wavelengths the interaction cancels the net electromagnetic field at the magnetoplasmonic component, strongly reducing the magneto-optical activity of the whole system...
