光学-射频双光子耦合作用下的电磁诱导透明和电磁诱导吸收

在通常的Λ型三能级系统中,光学耦合场和探测场分别激发两个不同的光学跃迁,探测吸收谱呈现电磁诱导透明(EIT)特性.若将此系统拓展为光学-射频双光子耦合场和探测场共同作用下的准Λ型四能级系统,探测吸收谱呈现电磁诱导吸收(EIA)和EIT两种特性.通过求解系统的密度矩阵方程,分析了EIA和EIT的产生条件,并给出了相应的缀饰态解释.研究结果表明,在准Λ型四能级系统中,光学耦合场对EIA和EIT的形成起决定作用,共振时出现EIA,非共振时出现EIT,而且EIA和EIT的线宽随着光学耦合场拉比频率的增大而增加. 关键词： 电磁诱导透明 电磁诱导吸收 射频场 光学耦合场

级联四能级光学量子相干系统子类型的结构多样性

级联型四能级系统由于具有6个可能的光学跃迁通道,因而有许多现实的子类型可供光学量子相干效应的理论和实验探讨。利用布尔代数方法,按照可能存在的跃迁通道,结合电偶极跃迁选择定则,研究了级联四能级系统的所有的通道子类型,得到了17个三通道和2个四通道的现实通道子类型。然后,仅仅按照涉及的光场的强弱来区分,又得到了168种现实强度子类型。这种子类型的结构多样性为量子光学、量子信息科学和精密光谱学等理论及应用研究提供了更灵活的能级选择。     

三能级级联型介质的正常色散与反常色散

建议利用三能级级联型介质实现从正常色散到反常色散的变换.在级联型介质中,两个偶极跃迁分别与两个不同的相干场耦合.探测场或者与上跃迁耦合,或者与下跃迁耦合.利用谐振展开方法把介质密度矩阵元方程组转换成在定态条件下系数不依赖时间的方程组,然后用逆矩阵求解,并用此解求得介质的吸收与色散谱.结果表明,对于每一种情形,在同一频率区域系统既能呈现正常色散,也能呈现反常色散.通过改变耦合到探测跃迁的驱动场强度,可以实现从正常色散到反常色散的转换.级联系统与Λ和V系统之间呈现两个差别.第一,如果利用Λ和V系统的两个跃迁同时与探测场耦合获得色散转换,则需要利用近简并能级,而本方案利用缀饰态获得等价的近简并能级,其间距由相应驱动场强度进行控制.第二,如果利用Λ和V系统的单个跃迁耦合探测场建立色散转换,当退耦合态起主要作用时,系统不能产生色散转换,而级联系统不涉及退耦合态.     

Enhanced narrow spectral line and double electromagnetically induced two-photon transparency induced by double dark resonances

We theoretically investigate the features of two-photon absorption in a five-level atomic system with interacting dark resonances. It is found that two-photon absorption can be completely suppressed at two different frequencies due to the application of two coherent coupling fields and the atomic system exhibits double electromagnetically induced transparency windows against two-photon absorption. The position and width of the double two-photon transparency windows can be controlled via properly adjusting the frequency detuning and the intensities of the two coupling fields. In addition, one enhanced narrow central line can be observed in the two-photon absorption spectra, which may find applications in high-precision spectroscopy. Form a physical point of view, we explicitly explain these results in terms of quantum interference induced by three different two-photon excitation channels in the dressed-state picture.     

Absorption and dispersion control in a five-level M-type atomic system

We investigate the steady optical response of a coherently driven five-level M-type atomic system in three different situations.When all three coupling fields have the same zero detuning,we just find one deep transparency window accompanied by a steep normal dispersion in the probe absorption and dispersion spectra.When two coupling fields are detuned from the relevant transitions to the same extent,however,a second deep transparency window may be observed in the presence of a narrow absorption line of linewidth ～50 kHz.In this case,two single-photon far-detuned transitions can be replaced by a two-photon resonant transition,so the five-level M system in fact reduces into a four-level quasi-Λ system.Finally,we note that no deep transparency windows and no narrow absorption lines can be found when all three coupling fields have unequal detunings.

Dicke Quantum Phase Transition for a Bose-Einstein Condensate in a Two-Mode Optical Cavity

In this paper we mainly discuss the ground state properties of the two-mode Dicke model, which is realized in an ensemble of two-level atoms interacting simultaneously with two quantized cavity fields. We reveal rich phase diagrams and discover the second-order quantum phase transition from the normal phase to the superradiant phase by means of the spin-coherent-state variational method. While the critical phase transition point can be shifted by the detuning of the cavity mode or the atom-field coupling imbalance parameter. The collective atom-field coupling imbalance parameter can make the phase transition point symmetrically shift left or right in the resonance or non-resonance. If the two collective atom-photon coupling strengths are not equal in the resonance, the system may be in different phases, while the phases occupied are completely symmetrical. When one of the coupling constants vanishes or two couplings are equal, the ground-states’s properties and related QPT reduce to that of a standard or an ordinary Dicke model.

     

Modulation of multiphoton resonant high-order harmonic spectra driven by two frequency-comb fields

The frequency-comb structure in the extreme ultraviolet(XUV) and vacuum ultraviolet(VUV) regions can be realized by the high-order harmonic generation(HHG) process driven by frequency-comb fields, providing an alternative approach for the measurement of an unknown frequency in XUV or VUV. We consider the case of two driving frequency-comb fields with the same repetition frequency and the carrier frequencies of fundamental-and third-harmonics, respectively.The many-mode Floquet theorem(MMFT) is employed to provide a nonperturbative and exact treatment of the interaction between a quantum system and the frequency-comb laser fields. Multiphoton transition paths involving both fundamentaland third-harmonic photons are opened due to the coupling of the third-harmonic frequency-comb field. The multiphoton transition paths are superpositioned when the carrier-envelope-phase shifts(CEPs) fulfill the matching condition. And the interference of the multiphoton transition paths can be controlled by tuning the relative envelope delay between the fields.We find that the quasienergy structure, as well as the multiphoton resonant high-order harmonic generation(HHG) spectra,driven by the two frequency-comb fields can be coherently controlled via the interference of multiphoton transition paths.It is also found that the spectral intensities of the generated harmonics can be modulated, and the modulation behavior is harmonic-sensitive.     

Effects of inhomogeneous magnetic fields on the electron transport through a quantum-wire system

The electron transport through a quantum-wire system in the presence of inhomogeneous magnetic fields is investigated theoretically. The system consists of two parallel quantum wires coupled by two ballistic windows, while the magnetic fields applied are uniform and equal in the two wires but vanishing in the two coupling windows and everywhere between the wires. Various transmissions of the system are calculated. It is found that the inhomogeneous magnetic fields induce irregular transmission oscillations in the low and moderate magnetic-field regions, and regular ones in the high field region. These transmission oscillations are due to interference between the electron waves traveling through different coupling windows and can be interpreted in terms of a semiclassical model. The Hall resistance of the system is also calculated and is found to show similar regular oscillations at high magnetic fields.     

Effects of spontaneously generated coherence on resonance fluorescence in a microwave-driven four-level atomic system

We investigate the spectrum of the resonance fluorescence from a coherent driven four-level atomic system. We observe interesting features such as controllable triple narrow peaks. The number, widths and heights of the emission peaks can be controlled by tuning the Rabi frequencies of the laser fields and the microwave field. We attribute these features to the effects of Spontaneously Generated Coherence between the close-lying levels in the dressed state picture. We also explain the observed spectrum with the transition properties of the dressed states generated by the coupling of the two laser fields and the microwave field.     

Dissipation-induced topological phase transition and periodic-driving-induced photonic topological state transfer in a small optomechanical lattice

We propose a scheme to investigate the topological phase transition and the topological state transfer based on the small optomechanical lattice under the realistic parameters regime.We find that the optomechanical lattice can be equivalent to a topologically nontrivial Su-Schrieffer Heeger(SSH)model via designing the effective optomechanical coupling.Especially,the optomechanical lattice experiences the phase transition between topologically nontrivial SSH phase and topologically trivial SSH phase by controlling the decay of the cavity field and the opto mechanical coupling.We stress that the to pological phase transition is mainly induced by the decay of the cavity field,which is counter-intuitive since the dissipation is usually detrimental to the system.Also,we investigate the photonic state transfer between the two cavity fields via the topologically protected edge channel based on the small optomechanical lattice.We find that the quantum st ate transfer assisted by the topological zero energy mode can be achieved via implying the external lasers with the periodical driving amplitudes into the cavity fields.Our scheme provides the fundamental and the insightful explanations towards the mapping of the photonic topological insulator based on the micro-nano optomechanical quantum optical platform.
