Multiphoton population dynamics in a three-level lambda system and the related light-scattering spectrum

Abstract

We generalize our analytic approach (Berent M and Parzyński R 2009 Phys. Rev. A 80 033834) to include the effect of strong depopulation of the initial state when considering the multiphoton population transfer and scattering of low-frequency light by a 3-level system in the lambda-type configuration. We discuss the quality of the approximations made, i.e., the adiabatic and generalized rotating-wave approximations.

Fluorescence spectrum and time-dependent population of a quantum three-level atom (Strontium) coupled with a silver nano sphere through a silver thin-film

“…For example the fluorescence of the three level atom in laser is a kind of noise, and we can control it by the following process. Also to illustrate more applications of three level atoms, we can consider the electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) which was first observed in Strontium vapor [9] or the effect of strong depopulation of the initial state when considering the multiphoton population transfer and scattering of low-frequency light by a three-level system in the lambda-type configuration [10].…”
