Abstract
We investigate the electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) and Autler Townes (AT) splitting spectrum with a four-level Rydberg atom by pole analysis of the probe coherence. A pair of poles corresponding to the two peaks of the spectral splitting is observed. The spectral split or the pole positions are affected by the microwave intensity (MW) and the detuning between the probe and the coupling laser. In the absence of any detuning, the two poles coincide and separate again on the imaginary axis of the complex detuning plane at weak MW field. The two poles do not coincide when the probe (coupling) laser is detuned for scanning the coupling (probe) laser frequency. However, under finite detuning, the two poles approach the nearest distance in the absence of any splitting and are separated again in the direction parallel to the imaginary axis. The spectral analysis of the poles provides an alternate way to establish the relationship between the splitting and the intensity of MW, which may play a role in the application of atomic-based MW measurements.
