摘要
对量子化的探测场在一维超冷里德伯原子样品中的传播特性进行研究。基于偶极阻塞效应,四能级原子的稳态电磁感应透明(EIT)光谱表现出典型的单光子水平的非线性现象:未饱和之前,探测场透射率和光子关联依赖于探测场强度。调整两个经典控制场的单光子失谐,能够实现对非线性EIT行为的灵活操控。通过改变拉比频率比例,可观察到四能级原子系统到三能级梯形原子系统的非线性EIT转变。
Abstract
The transmission properties of the quantized probe field traveling in one-dimensional ultra-cold Rydberg atom samples are studied. Based on the dipole blockade effect, the steady-state spectrum of the electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) of a four-level atom exhibits the typical nonlinearity at single-photon level. Namely, the field transmittance and photon correlation depend on the probe field intensity before the saturation. By changing the single-photon detuning of the two classical control fields, we realize the flexible manipulation of the nonlinear EIT behavior. By varying the ratio of the Rabbi frequencies, we can observe the transformation of nonlinear EIT from the four-level atomic system to the three-level trapezoidal atomic system.
