Electromagnetically induced transparency of single Λ-type three-level atom in high-finesse optical cavity

doi:10.1088/1674-1056/22/3/030309

Abstract We study the features of the electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) in a single Λ-type three-level atom placed in a high finesse cavity under the action of a coupling laser and a probe laser. Our calculations show that three transparency windows appear when the pump strength is big enough. It can be explained by the residual pump in the cavity resulting mostly in the energy splitting. Level |3〉is split into four slightly different energy levels. An interference takes place between excitation pathways. Furthermore, it is also shown that the frequencies of the EIT windows can be tuned by changing the coupling field detuning Δ₂ and the reflection profile is very sensitive to the cavity field detuning Δ_c.
