Abstract
We report that modified superradiance lattice (2023, Phys. Scr. 98 015 105) can be used to obtain high-frequency photonic band gaps which are controllable using low-frequency light. Here, we also notice that the maximum reflectivity of these photonic band gaps can be achieved via low-frequency light control. This maximum reflectivity remains constant for a certain range of probe detuning depending upon the strength of the control field. We also report that this can lead to experimental realization of the soft x-ray regime (high-frequency) via 61st-order low-frequency light using Be2+ ions, the corresponding reflectivity in this case is 96%. Therefore, one can construct controllable x-ray photonic band gaps which can further be used to devise optical switches, beam splitters, and frequency combs. Moreover, this scheme holds the promise of working efficiently in all types of other configurations where reflection of high-frequency light is needed using nth order low-frequency light.
