Abstract:
We present a study of electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) under the excitation of a 100% amplitude-modulated (AM) coupling field. The EIT feature is associated with a Λ type three-level configuration where a coupling and probe field couples two separate optical transitions and it is well-known that the spectrum of the swept probe field gives a simple single transparency feature induced by the single mode coupling field. It is shown that when a 100% AM coupling field is applied, there is an EIT doublet and the separation of the EIT doublet can be controlled by the modulation frequency of the coupling field. Our result implies a new way of manipulating EIT resonance and opening more than one EIT windows.
