Abstract

A method of dynamic control of absorption and dispersion of a two-level quantum system (atoms, ions or quantum dots) doping a photonic band gap (PBG) material via variation of the intensity and frequency of an external laser field is proposed. The frequency of an optical transition should be inside a PBG and located near or at a photonic band edge. In this case the laser field ‘dresses’ the quantum system (Mollow splitting) while the decay rates of the dressed states become very different due to a photonic band edge and depend on the form of spectral density of electromagnetic modes as well as intensity and frequency of the laser field. This enables us to control absorption and dispersion of a signal laser field, which is near resonant to the quantum transition of a dopant.
