Phase-dependence of inversionless gain in a Doppler broadened open four-level system

The effect of the relative phase (?) between the probe and driving fields on the gain without inversion (GWI) in a Doppler broadened open quasi Λ-type four level atomic system with vacuum induced coherence (VIC) for both co- and counter-propagating probe and driving fields cases is studied. It is shown that: (1) GWI and the probe detuning region in which GWI exists are very sensitive to variation of the relative phase; when values of the other parameters keep unvarying, by adjusting value of ?, the largest GWI can be obtained. (2) The Doppler width (D) also has dramatically modulation role on the phase-dependent GWI. When value of D is smaller, the value of ? which corresponds to the largest value of GWI is about π, when value of D is large enough, it is about π/2. (3) GWI varies periodically with ? varying, the period is 2π, but the concrete variation rule is closely related to value of D. (4) In the co-propagating case we can obtain much larger GWI than that in the counter-propagating case.

Phase control of light amplification in steady and transient processes in an inverted-Y atomic system with spontaneously generated coherence

We investigate the effects of spontaneously generated coherence （SGC） on both the steady and transient gain properties in a four-level inverted-Y-type atomic system in the presence of a weak probe, two strong coherent fields, and an incoherent pump. For the steady process, we find that the inversionless gain mainly origins from SGC. In particular, we can modulate the inversionless gain by changing the relative phase between the two fields. Moreover, the amplitude of the gain peak can be enhanced and the additional gain peak can appear by changing the detuning of the coupling field. As for the transient process, the transient gain properties can also be dramatically affected by the SGC. Compared to the case without SGC, the transient gain can be greatly enhanced with completely eliminated transient absorption by choosing the proper relative phase between the two fields. And the inverted-Y-type system with SGC can be simulated in both atomic and semiconductor quantum well systems avoiding the conditions of SGC.

利用开放的Ladder型三能级原子系统密度矩阵运动方程的数值解,研究了在探测场和驱动场双共振条件下,自发辐射诱导相干（SGC） 对系统无反转激光（LWI）增益瞬态演化的影响以及注入速率比和退出速率对与SGC相关的增益的调制作用.研究结果表明：SGC强度的变化将使瞬态增益和最终的稳定增益发生显著的改变;存在非相干抽运时,LWI增益随注入速率比和退出速率的减小而增大,而不存在非相干抽运时的情况与此正好相反;通过选取适当的SGC强度、注入速率比和退出速率可得到最大的LWI增益的瞬态值和最终的稳定值.关键词：开放系统自发辐射诱导相干瞬态演化无反转增益

Noticeable positive Doppler effect on optical bistability in an N-type active Raman gain atomic system

We theoretically investigate the Doppler effect on optical bistability in an N-type active Raman gain atomic system inside an optical ring cavity.It is shown that the Doppler effect can greatly enhance the dispersion and thus create the bistable behaviour or greatly increase the bistable region,which has been known as the positive Doppler effect on optical bistability.In addition,we find that a positive Doppler effect can change optical bistability from the hybrid dispersion-gain type to a dispersive type.     

Coherent hole burnings induced without saturation field in a Doppler broaden four-level N-type atomic system

We display the phenomenon of the hole burning which appearing without saturation field under the effect of different parameters. Theoretically the effect of spontaneously generating coherence (SGC) on the probe polarization spectrum in a Doppler broadened four-level N-type atomic system are investigated when the two driven and probe fields are arranged in copropagating and counterpropagating configurations which play an important role in appearing the coherent hole-burning (CHB) phenomenon. The condition of appearing the hole burning in the polarization spectrum at the presence of spontaneously generating coherence (SGC) and the nonradiative decay rates is that the wave number fields are different.     

Phase grating in a doubly degenerate four-level system

In this paper, we suggest a doubly degenerate four-level system, in which the transition takes place between the hyperfine energy 52S1/2 F = 1 and 52P3/2 F = 2 in rubidium 87 D2 line, for studying atomic phase grating based on the cross-Kerr and phase conjugation effects. The phase grating with high efficiency can be obtained by tuning phase shift Ф between the coupling and probe field, when the coupling intensity is much stronger than the strength of probe field. Under different coupling intensities, a high diffraction efficiency can be maintained. A new and simple way of implementing phase grating is presented. However, in such an atomic system, two main limitations must be taken into account. First, the independence between steady state probe susceptibility and the coupling intensity, when the population decay rate is larger than the Rabi frequency of the coupling field, cannot result in diffraction grating; second, the sample to be prepared should not be too long.

Phase-dependent properties for absorption and dispersion in a closed equispaced three-level ladder system

It is shown that in a closed equispaced three-level ladder system, by controlling the relative phase of two applied coherent fields, the conversion from absorption with inversion to lasing without inversion (LWI) can be realized; a large index of the refraction with zero absorption can be gotten; considerable increasing of the spectrum region and value of the LWI gain can be achieved. Our study also reveals that the incoherent pumping will produce a remarkable effect on the phase-dependent properties of the system. Modifying value of the incoherent pumping can change the property of the system from absorption to amplification and enhance significantly LWI gain. If the incoherent pumping is absent, we cannot get any gain for any value of the relative phase.

Controlling the optical bistability via quantum interference in a four-level N-type atomic system

We investigate the optical bistability (OB) and optical multi-stability (OM) in a four-level N-type atomic system. The effect of spontaneously generated coherence (SGC) on OB and OM is then discussed. It is found that SGC makes the medium phase dependent, so the optical bistability and multi-stability threshold can be controlled via relative phase between applied fields. We realize that the frequency detuning of probe and coupling fields with the corresponding atomic transition plays an important role in creation OB and OM. Moreover, the effect of laser coupling fields and an incoherent pumping field on reduction of OB and OM threshold is then discussed.
