Nonlinear magneto-optic polarization rotation with intense laser fields
(American Physical Society, 2008)
We have studied the nonlinear Faraday effect with intense linear polarized light in an optically thick atomic rubidium vapor. We demonstrate that the polarization rotation rate (rotation angle per unit magnetic field, in ...
Measurement of ground-state decoherence via interruption of coherent population trapping
(American Physical Society, 2007)
We examine the role of ground-state coherence on the fluorescence from the excited state in a three-level Lambda system under continuous-wave excitation. When resonantly pumped, the fluorescence is strongly affected by any ...
Propagation dynamics of controlled cross-talk via interplay between chi((1)) and chi((3)) processes
(American Physical Society, 2011)
We investigate theoretically and experimentally the propagation dynamics of a nonlinear cross-talk effect between two probe channels in a double-ladder system and show that an interplay between chi((1)) and chi((3)) processes ...
