Steady-state population inversion by multiphoton electromagnetically induced transparency

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

We show that electromagnetically induced transparency suppresses nonlinear absorption of all orders in a multilevel atomic system and leads to selective, multiphoton excitation of resonantly coupled atomic states. Under appropriate conditions, higher-order nonlinear absorption becomes dominant and selective steady-state population inversion is created among the resonantly coupled states.
