Fast light in atomic media

AM Akulshin, RJ McLean - Journal of Optics, 2010 - iopscience.iop.org
Atomic media have played a major role in studies of fast light. One of their attractive features
is the ability to manipulate experimental parameters to control the dispersive properties that …

[HTML][HTML] Controllable optical properties of multiple electromagnetically induced transparency in gaseous atomic media

BN Huy, D Le Van, KD Xuan - Communications in Physics, 2019 - vjs.ac.vn
The advent of electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) offered a new coherent
material with exotic and controllable optical properties. Although, studies on single-EIT are …

Tunable phase control of rotary photon drag by superposition of three probes coherence in atomic medium

F Zaman, S Ahmad, SM Arif, M Haneef - The European Physical Journal …, 2021 - Springer
We use the superposition of three probes fields to modify the rotatory photon drag by
