Quenching of spontaneous emission through interference of incoherent pump processes
(American Physical Society, 2003)
We investigate the steady-state spontaneous emission of a V-type three-level atom, with the coherence between the two upper levels modified and controlled via incoherent pumping to a fourth auxiliary level. The external ...
Improving engine efficiency by extracting laser energy from hot exhaust gas RID A-1272-2007
(American Physical Society, 2003)
We show that it is possible to improve the efficiency of a classical Otto-cycle heat engine by adding a high-Q microwave cavity and a laser system that can extract coherent laser energy from thermally excited "exhaust" ...
Inversionless lasing with self-generated driving field
(American Physical Society, 2001)
We propose and study resonant ladder schemes of inversionless lasing on a fast-decaying transition when the population inversion is not possible or Very difficult to achieve. The driving field on a neighboring, slowly ...
