Four-wave mixing, quantum control and compensating losses in doped negative-index photonic metamaterials
Alexander K. Popov, Sergey A. Myslivets, Thomas F. George +1
The possibility of compensating absorption in negative-index metatamterials (NIMs) doped by resonant nonlinear-optical centers is shown. The role of quantum interference and extrao…
Optical switching and inversionless amplification controlled by state-dependent alignment of molecules
A. K. Popov, V. V. Slabko
Switching anisotropic molecules from strongly-absorbing to strongly-amplifying through a transparent state is shown to be possible by application of dc or ac control electric field…
Manipulative resonant nonlinear optics: nonlinear interference effects and quantum control of nonlinearity, dispersion, transparency and inversionless amplification in an extended strongly-absorbing inhomogeneously-broadened medium
A. K. Popov, S. A. Myslivets, Thomas F. George
Specific features of nonlinear interference processes at quantum transitions in near- and fully-resonant optically-dense Doppler-broadened medium are studied. The feasibility of ov…
Inversionless light amplification and optical switching controlled by state-dependent alignment of molecules
A. K. Popov, V. V. Slabko
We propose a method to achieve amplification without population inversion by anisotropic molecules whose orientation by an external electric field is state-dependent. It is based o…
Adiabatic passage and dissociation controlled by interference of two laser-induced continuum structures
A. K. Popov, V. V. Kimberg, Thomas F. George
We have developed a theory of three-pulse coherent control of photochemical processes. It is based on adiabatic passage and quantum coherence and interference attributed to the low…
Theory of four-wave mixing and accompanying dissociation and population transfer controlled with laser-induced continuum structures
V. V. Kimberg, A. K. Popov, Thomas F. George
A theory is developed and applied to the study of opportunities and specific features of coherent control of four-wave mixing as well as of the accompanying processes in the contin…
