Lasers without inversion: interference of dressed lifetime-broadened states.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We describe the use of a coupling electromagnetic field to provide a general method of producing inversion-free laser systems. The interference between dressed states produces a zero in absorption while allowing gains of the order of that of the uncoupled system.

LASERS WITHOUT INVERSION: DENSITY OPERATOR METHOD
A quantum theory of a two and three-level laser with injected atomic coherence is developed by using a density operator method, to the best of our knowledge, for the first time. The initial atomic coherence plays an essential role. At steady state, the equation of motion for the density operator yields to exhibit laser without inversion and a phase locking but no threshold for the laser fie...
متن کاملLasing without population inversion: towards X-ray continuous wave laser emission
This paper is devoted to lasing without population inversion in three and multi-level atomic configurations in interaction with a driving laser. First we discuss the interest and the current state-of-the-art of this phenomenon. Then, the basic physics of lasing without inversion is described in more detail and analyzed in terms of quantum interference between the dressed-states built up by the ...
متن کاملInterference-induced optical gain without population inversion in cold, trapped atoms
Continuous-wave ~cw! optical gain of 1.3310 cm is obtained on a probe transition in a driven, threelevel, V-type atomic system. The atoms exhibit no population inversion between the probe excited state and the dressed ground states of the combined atom-drive Hamiltonian. This gain without population inversion is interpreted as direct evidence of quantum interference, arising from coherences est...
متن کاملModulation Response and Relative Intensity Noise Spectra in Quantum Cascade Lasers
Static properties, relatively intensity noise and intensity modulation response in quantum cascade lasers (QCLs) studied theoretically in this paper. The present rate equations model consists of three equations for the electrons density in the conduction band and one equation for photons density in cavity length. Two equations were derived to calculate the noise and modulation response. Calcula...
متن کاملPhotoelectron spectra and high Rydberg states of lithium generated by intense lasers in the over-the-barrier ionization regime
We calculated photoelectron energy and momentum spectra and the population of high Rydberg states of lithium atoms by intense 785 nm laser pulses at intensities in the over-the-barrier ionization (OBI) regime. The calculated spectra are compared to experiments reported in Schuricke et al. [Phys. Rev. A 83, 023413 (2011)]. It is shown that in the OBI regime, due to strong depletion of the ground...
