Abstract
We investigate the effect of quantum interference between the two transition pathways from the excited doublet to the ground level of a driven V atom on the spectral features of the resonance fluorescence emission. The ultranarrow spectral line at line center, which arises due to quantum interference, occurs over a wide range of parameters. The smaller the ratio of the excited doublet splitting to the effective Rabi frequency, the more pronounced the spectral line narrowing. However, the fluorescence emission is completely quenched when the atomic dipole moments are exactly parallel and the driving field is tuned to the average frequency of the atomic transitions. The narrow line is due to the slow decay rate of one dressed state, while the quenching arises from dressed-state trapping. A finite laser linewidth destroys the spectral narrowing features and the fluorescence quenching.
