Observation of multi-Raman gain resonances in rubidium vapor

doi:10.1088/1674-1056/25/11/114204

Abstract We present an experimental study of multi-Raman gain resonances in a hot rubidium vapor. The experiment is performed based on a high-efficiency four-wave mixing process due to the Raman-driven coherence in a double-Λ configuration. The Raman gain resonance for ⁸⁵Rb atoms under a bias magnetic field is shown to be split into five or six peaks, depending on the orientation of the magnetic field. The formed multi-Raman gain resonances have potential applications in measurement of magnetic fields and generation of multi-frequency correlated twin beams.

Keywords: four-wave mixing multi-Raman gain resonances coherent optical effects
