A review of the models used for the calculation of the Stark broadening spectrum for
plasmas is presented. The aim is to provide an overview of the related theories using a …

This tutorial introduces the theoretical and experimental basics of electromagnetically
induced transparency (EIT) in thermal alkali vapors. We first give a brief phenomenological …

Coherent diffusion pertains to the motion of atomic dipoles experiencing frequent collisions
in vapor while maintaining their coherence. Recent theoretical and experimental studies on …

Reversible and coherent storage of light in an atomic medium is a promising method with
possible applications in many fields. In this work, arbitrary two-dimensional images are …

We study the spreading of a quantum-mechanical wave packet in a tight-binding model with
a noisy potential and analyze the emergence of classical diffusion from the quantum …

We present a theoretical model for electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) in vapor
that incorporates atomic motion and velocity-changing collisions into the dynamics of the …

摘要在气泡型原子频标中, 原子钟泡内充入的缓冲气体会引起光学跃迁(电偶极) 的频移和展宽,
导致钟泡无法获得无多普勒展宽(Doppler-free) 原子的光学跃迁谱线. 因而在高性能相干布居 …

We present a scheme for eliminating the optical diffraction of slow light in a thermal atomic
medium of electromagnetically induced transparency. Nondiffraction is achieved for an …

The Fresnel-Fizeau effect of transverse drag, in which the trajectory of a light beam changes
due to transverse motion of the optical medium, is usually extremely small and hard to …

Ensembles of alkali-metal or noble-gas atoms at room temperature and above are widely
applied in quantum optics and metrology owing to their long-lived spins. Their collective spin …
