V型系统中自发辐射相干效应对无反转粒子数激光产生条件的影响

本文从理论上讨论了自发辐射相干效应 (Spontaneously Generated Coherence, 简记为SGC) 对V型原子中无反转激光 (Lasing Without Inversion, 简记为LWI) 产生条件的影响.在V型原子中,当其上两个能级为简并或近简并能级时 (如Zeeman分裂能级),会出现SGC效应.研究表明,在SGC效应起作用的情况下,无需外加非相干泵浦场或者两上能级间的粒子数的衰减,也能实现LWI.然而,在产生LWI的区域中,SGC效应并非永远对产生LWI作正的贡献,在某些区域SGC项甚至会削弱LWI 的产生.本文给出了产生LWI的条件,并讨论了一类新型的量子相干效应.

Phase modulation of transient evolution of atomic response in open lambda-type system with spontaneously generated coherence

We study the effects of the relative phase, Φ, between the probe and driving fields on the transient evolution of the atomic response from different respects in an open lambda-type system with spontaneously generated coherence. We find that: variation of value of Φ will obviously change the transient evolution process, transient and stationary values of gain, absorption and dispersion but has no any effect on the transient evolution of populations. For the same value of Φ, the stationary gain without inversion (GWI) when the incoherent pumping exists is much larger than that when the incoherent pumping is absent, the time needed to reach at the stationary state when the incoherent pumping exists is much shorter than that when the incoherent pumping is absent. The initial condition varying has remarkable effects on the phase-dependent transient evolution process, transient value of GWI but doesn’t vary size of stationary value of GWI. Varying the ratio C of the atomic injection rates and exit rate γ₀ has evident effects on the phase-dependent transient evolution process, transient and stationary values of GWI. Our study result shows that the transient evolution of the atomic response in the open system presents some considerable difference from that in the corresponding closed system, specially in the open system we can get much larger GWI than that in the corresponding closed system. In addition, we give a brief discussion about effects of the relative phase on the transient evolution of the atomic response in the open system without SGC, and obtain some results much different from those obtained in the open system with SGC.     

Effect of spontaneously generated coherence on probe response in an open system

The effect of spontaneously generated coherence on the probe response in an open ladder atomic system with equispaced levels is studied. The result shows that by adjusting the strength of spontaneously generated coherence (SGC), electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) and high dispersion (index of refraction) with zero absorption can be realized, a much larger gain without inversion (GWI) than that without SGC can be obtained. Moreover, in the open system and for some strength of SGC, GWI without the incoherent pumping is much larger than that with the incoherent pumping; however, in the corresponding closed system, when the incoherent pumping is absent, we cannot obtain any gain (with or without inversion) for any strength of SGC. In addition, the manipulation role of the atomic exit and injection rates on SGC-dependent absorption property is analyzed for the case when the incoherence pumping does not exist.     

Impact of Interacting Quantum Coherence via Decays and Incoherent Pumping on Transient and Steady-State Behaviors of Absorption

The effects from quantum coherence via decays and incoherent pumping on the lasing without inversion(LWI) are investigated in a four-level system.By analyzing the transient and steady-state behaviors of the absorption,we find that the gain occurs when both spontaneously generated coherence(SGC) and coherence induced by incoherent pumping(IPC) are considered.We attribute the occurrence of the gain to the interaction of quantum coherence via decays and incoherent pumping.     

Phase control of probe response in an open ladder type system with spontaneously generated coherence

The control role of the relative phase between the probe and driving fields on the gain and dispersion in an open three-level ladder atomic system with incoherent pumping and spontaneously generated coherence is investigated. It is shown that by adjusting the value of the relative phase, the switching from lasing with inversion to lasing without inversion (LWI) can be realized; high index of the refraction with zero absorption can be achieved. It is also found that when the driving field is on resonance, the dispersion curve versus the probe detuning is very similar to the gain curve if the relative phase corresponding to the dispersion advances π/2 than that corresponding to the gain. LWI gain from the open system is obviously larger than that from corresponding closed system. When the incoherent pumping is absent, the open system can get LWI gain, moreover the gain is larger than that when the incoherent pumping presents for suitable value of the relative phase, but the corresponding closed system exhibits only absorption. In addition, manipulation effects of atomic exit and ratio of the injection rates on phase dependent gain are also analyzed.     

Effects of relative phase in an open ladder system without incoherent pumping

We studied effects of the relative phase between the probe and driving fields on the absorption and dispersion properties in an open three-level ladder system with spontaneously generated coherence but without incoherent pumping. It is shown that by the phase controlling, switching from absorption to lasing without inversion (LWI) and enhancing remarkablely LWI gain can be realized; large index of refraction with zero absorption and the electromagnetically induced transparency can be obtained. We also find that varying the atomic injection and exit rates has a considerable influence on the phase dependent-absorption property of the probe field, existent of the atomic injection and exit rates gives the necessary condition of the realization of LWI, getting LWI is impossible in the corresponding closed system without incoherent pumping.     

Optical properties of an open three-level atomic system via coherent and incoherent fields

In this paper, coherent and incoherent control of optical properties of open ladder- type three-level atomic system is investigated. It is shown that in the presence of spontaneously generated coherence (SGC) and incoherent pumping filed, group velocity, absorption and dispersion of the probe field can be controlled by adjusting the ratio between atomic injection and exit rates. Also, the bistabal behaviors of the system are discussed. It is shown that the ratio between atomic injections and exit rate can influence the bistabal threshold intensity and related hysteresis loop. More interestingly, it is found that SGC and incoherent pumping field effects have a central role for distinguishing between open and closed system.     

Effects of relative phase on transient evolution in an open resonant ladder-type atomic system

In an open ladder-type resonant atomic system, variation in relative phase between probe and driving fields does not affect the transient evolution of populations, but it has remarkable effects on gain and dispersion of the probe field. No matter whether an incoherent pump is present or absent, transient and stationary gains without inversion (GWI) always can be obtained by choosing an appropriate value of the relative phase. When the incoherent pump is absent,the values of transient and stationary GWIs are much larger and the time interval required to reach the stationary value is longer than those when the incoherent pump is present. Varying the exit rate and the ratio between injection rates can obviously change the phase-dependent GWI. In addition, in the transient evolution process, the phenomenon of high dispersion (refractive index) without absorption occurs at some values of relative phase. In the corresponding closed system, the stationary GWI can be obtained by choosing an appropriate value of relative phase only when incoherent pump exists, moreover the gain is smaller than that in the open system.     

Effect of spontaneously generated coherence on inversionless lasing gain in an atomic system with Doppler broadening

We have studied the effect of the spontaneously generated coherence (SGC) on gain of lasing without inversion (LWI) in a closed three-level $\Lambda $-type atomic system with Doppler broadening. It is shown that, regardless of the driving and probe fields being co- or counter-propagating, at a suitable value of the Doppler width, we can obtain a much larger LWI gain with SGC than that without SGC; and the region of the LWI gain spectrum with SGC is obviously larger than that without SGC. When the Doppler width takes a constant value, the gain does not monotonically decrease or increase with increasing strength of SGC, the largest LWI gain can be obtained by adjusting strength of SGC. Generally speaking, the co-propagating probe and driving fields is favourable to obtain a larger LWI gain.
