Abstract

The subject of this work is the propagation of a weak probe pulse in an atomic medium in a three-level closed-loop configuration. An atomic system is irradiated with two strong control fields: optical and microwave. Two channels for the probe field are activated: (i) absorption of a probe photon and (ii) emission of a probe photon with the simultaneous absorption of two control and two microwave photons. We analyse in detail the pulse spectrum and its time–space evolution taking into account the generation of light by the atomic sample. In particular, we study interference effects due to the relative phase of the applied fields. In contrast to other papers, we do not make the assumption of net (three photon) resonance.
