چکیده

We theoretically study the transmission and reflection of the probe travelling wave in an electromagnetically induced absorption grating (EIG), which is created in a three-level Lambda-type atomic system when the coupling field is a standing wave. Using the system, we show that a photonic stop band can exist on one side away from the resonance point in ultracold atomic gas, while there is an enhanced absorption at resonance and small reflection around it in the thermal atomic gas. Because our method can deal with such two cases, it is helpful to further understand the effects of the Doppler effect on atomic coherence and interference.

All-optical switching and routing based on an electromagnetically induced absorption grating.

An electromagnetically induced absorption grating is formed in a three-level atomic vapor under the condition of electromagnetically induced transparency in which the strong coupling beam is replaced by a standing wave. The transmission and reflection behaviors of the weak probe beam are greatly modified at certain frequencies near the two-photon resonance. An all-optical two-port signal router...

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...

Electromagnetically induced grating: Homogeneously broadened medium

A strong coupling standing wave, interacting with three-level L-type ~or ladder-type! atoms, can diffract a weak probe field ~propagating along a direction normal to the standing wave! into high-order diffractions, a phenomenon which we name electromagnetically induced grating ~EIG!. We develop in this work a theory for studying EIG in a homogeneously broadened medium consisting of three-level ...

In this paper, electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) in a system consisting of associated arrays of parallel slabs (metal-dielectric-metal) is studied. The transmission coefficient, the reflection coefficient and the absorption coefficient as function of the incident light frequency by using the transfer matrix method is calculated and numerically discussed. Influence of the thickness ...
