Abstract

A universal mechanism destroying coherence in a $\ensuremath{\Lambda}$ system driven by two resonant laser fields due to four-photon interactions is analyzed theoretically. It is shown that this mechanism gives rise to novel spectral structures in resonance fluorescence. The ``dark resonance'' in absorption (dispersion) spectra is affected as well.
