Abstract
We show that a vapor of multilevel atoms driven by far-off-resonant laser beams, with the possibility of interference of two Raman resonances, is highly efficient for creating parity-time symmetric profiles of the probe-field refractive index, whose real part is symmetric and imaginary part is antisymmetric in space. The spatial modulation of the probe-field susceptibility is achieved by a proper combination of standing-wave strong control fields and of Stark shifts induced by far-off-resonance laser fields. As particular examples we explore a mixture of isotopes of rubidium atoms and design a parity-time symmetric lattice and a parabolic refractive index with a linear imaginary part.
