本文研究了电磁诱导光透明过程中两原子的自旋极化矢量。对于数态探测场,在光信息转移过程中,两原子自旋极化矢量始终固定在z方向,大小变化非常明显,两原子一般处于混合态;对于相干态探测场,自旋极化矢量大小变化很微弱,两量子比特基本处于纯态,这有利于改善系综内原子之间的相干性,但自旋极化矢量的方向在x-z平面内。     

基于里德伯原子电磁诱导透明效应的光脉冲减速

6S1/2→6P3/2→49D5/2基于铯里德伯原子的电磁诱导透明效应,当光与原子能级频率共振时,色散将剧烈变化,吸收减弱.此时光脉冲在原子介质中传播时,将会出现减速.在铯原子阶梯型三能级系统中,观察到由色散曲线陡峭变化导致的探测光脉冲减速现象,并系统研究了耦合光强度和原子气室温度对光脉冲减慢的影响.实验结果表明,耦合光越弱,延迟时间越长;原子气室温度越高,减速效应越明显,与理论计算相符.实验结果为之后进行的通过光脉冲减速效应测量微波电场提供了实验基础.

基于电磁诱导透明效应的无调制里德堡跃迁激光锁频

我们实验上展示了利用室温Rb原子蒸汽池中的电磁诱导透明光谱实现里德堡跃迁激光无调制频率锁定方法。在Rb原子5S_(1/2),5P_(3/2),10D_(3/2)组成的级联三能级系统中,耦合激光工作于原子从中间态5P_(3/2)和里德堡态10D_(3/2)跃迁,探测激光工作于耦合基态5S_(1/2)到中间态5P_(3/2)的跃迁。通过扫描耦合光的频率并测量探测光的光强变化实现EIT信号的监测。我们对探测光进行频率调制,通过解调EIT光谱获得误差信号,并将误差信号经由PID控制电路反馈至激光器进而实现耦合激光频率的锁定。利用这种方法实现了耦合激光的无调制锁频,激光锁定后的残余频率起伏约为1 MHz。这种锁定方法对实现里德堡态原子的高效制备具有重要意义。

从主方程出发,通过解析求解密度矩阵非对角元,研究了压缩真空中Λ型三能级原子的电磁诱导透明现象(EIT).研究结果表明:EIT显著地依赖于相干光场的相位、压缩真空的压缩强度和压缩相位.Λ型三能级原子不但有电磁诱导透明和慢光速现象,而且还会表现出对探测光的增益、快光速和反向光速效应;且Λ型三能级原子对探测光场的吸收和增益与探测光强度有关,这与普通真空中不同. 关键词： 压缩真空 电磁诱导透明 增益     

Coherent manipulation of spin squeezing in atomic Bose-Einstein condensate via electromagnetically induced transparency

We propose a scheme to coherently control spin squeezing of atomic Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) via the technique of electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT). We study quantum dynamics of the mean spin vector and spin squeezing. It is shown that the mean spin vector and spin squeezing of the BEC can be controlled and manipulated by adjusting the external coupling fields or/and internal nonlinear interactions of the BEC. It is indicated that the spin squeezing can be generated rapidly in the dynamical process and maintained in a long time interval. It is found that a larger effective Rabi coupling between atoms and lasers can produce a stronger spin squeezing, and the squeezing can maintain a longer time interval.     

High-resolution three-dimensional atomic microscopy via double electromagnetically induced transparency

We aim to present a new scheme for high-dimensional atomic microscopy via double electromagnetically induced transparency in a four-level tripod system. For atom–field interaction, we construct a spatially dependent field by superimposing three standing-wave fields(SWFs) in 3 D-atom localization. We achieve a high precision and high spatial resolution of an atom localization by appropriately adjusting the system variables such as field intensities and phase shifts. We also see the impact of Doppler shift and show that it dramatically deteriorates the precision of spatial information on 3 D-atom localization. We believe that our suggested scheme opens up a fascinating way to improve the atom localization that supplies some practical applications in atom nanolithography, and Bose–Einstein condensation.     

Manipulation of multiple electromagnetically induced two-photon transparency in a six-level atomic system

In the five-level K-type atomic system, by using another control field to couple the excited level of the coupling transition to the sixth higher excited level, a six-level atomic system is constructed. In this system, the multiple electromagnetically induced two-photon transparency has been investigated. What is more, if choosing the parameters of the control fields properly the triple transparency window will reduce to a double one which means that the multiple electromagnetically induced two-photon transparency can be manipulated in this system. The physical interpretation of these phenomena is given in terms of the dressed states and the dark states.     

Laser frequency locking based on Rydberg electromagnetically induced transparency

We present a laser frequency locking to Rydberg transition with electromagnetically induced transparency(EIT)spectra in a room-temperature cesium vapor cell. Cesium levels 6S_(1/2), 6P_(3/2), and the n D_(5/2) state, compose a cascade three-level system, where a coupling laser drives Rydberg transition, and probe laser detects the EIT signal. The error signal, obtained by demodulating the EIT signal, is used to lock the coupling laser frequency to Rydberg transition. The laser frequency fluctuation, ~0.7 MHz, is obtained after locking on, with the minimum Allan variance to be 8.9 × 10~(-11).This kind of locking method can be used to stabilize the laser frequency to the excited transition.     

Dependence of electromagnetically induced transparency on temperature

We performed an experimental study on the dependence of the linewidth of electromagetically induced transparency (EIT) on the temperature of medium in a Λ-type configuration using caesium vapour. We found that the transparent window is narrowed in the EIT whose two ground levels are composed of two hyperfine levels, and broadened in the case when the two ground levels are degenerated Zeeman sublevels, as the temperature of vapour cell is increased. The explanation for the phenomena is given qualitatively.     

Nonlinear cascade-configuration multi-wave mixing scheme based on electromagnetically induced transparency

A nonlinear optical cascade-configuration multi-wave mixing (CCMWM) scheme is presented and analysed for the generation of coherent light in a six-level atomic system in the context of electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT). A detailed semi-classical study of the propagation of the generated mixing and probe fields is demonstrated. We show by numerical simulations that EIT is capable of suppressing linear and nonlinear photon absorption. The analytical dependence of the generated mixing field on the probe field and the respective detuning is also predicted. Such a nonlinear optical process can be used for generating coherent short-wavelength radiation.     

里德伯电磁感应透明中的相位

本文在典型的里德伯电磁感应透明系统中研究弱探测场在相互作用原子系统中的传播特性,重点关注基于偶极阻塞效应的探测场相位的合作光学非线性行为.通过与探测场透射率和光子关联作对比,发现相位的光学响应具有新特性:共振和Autler-Townes劈裂条件下相位对入射场强和初始光子关联不敏感,而在两者之间的频率范围内相位响应具有非线性特征,尤其在经典光频率处最显著.此外,提高主量子数和原子密度都会促进相位的非线性效应.综上,与探测场透射率和光子关联一样,相位可以作为合作光学非线性的另一个标识来刻画非线性现象,对里德伯电磁感应透明研究是一个有力的补充.

Monte Carlo simulations of electromagnetically induced transparency in a square lattice of Rydberg atoms

We study the steady optical response of a square lattice in which all trapped atoms are driven by a probe and a coupling fields into the ladder configuration of electromagnetically induced transparency(EIT). It turns out to be a manybody problem in the presence of van der Waals(vd W) interaction among atoms in the upmost Rydberg state, so Monte Carlo(MC) calculation based on density matrix equations have been done after introducing a sufficiently large cut-off radius. It is found that the absorption and dispersion of EIT spectra depends critically on a few key parameters like lattice dimension, unitary vd W shift, probe Rabi frequency, and coupling detuning. Through modulating these parameters, it is viable to change symmetries of the absorption and dispersion spectra and control on demand depth and position of the transparency window. Our MC calculation is expected to be instructive in understanding many-body quantum coherence effects and in manipulating non-equilibrium quantum phenomena by utilizing vd W interactions of Rydberg atoms.
