Quasi-simultons in thermal atomic vapors
Thomas P. Ogden, K. A. Whittaker, J. Keaveney +3
The propagation of two-color laser fields through optically thick atomic ensembles is studied. We demonstrate how the interaction between these two fields spawns the formation of c…
Spectroscopic detection of atom-surface interactions in an atomic vapour layer with nanoscale thickness
K. A. Whittaker, J. Keaveney, I. G. Hughes +3
We measure the resonance line shape of atomic vapor layers with nanoscale thickness confined between two sapphire windows. The measurement is performed by scanning a probe laser th…
The Hilbert transform: Applications to atomic spectra
K. A. Whittaker, J. Keaveney, I. G. Hughes +1
In many areas of physics, the Kramers-Kronig (KK) relations are used to extract information about the real part of the optical response of a medium from its imaginary counterpart.…
Optical response of gas-phase atoms at less than from a dielectric surface
K. A. Whittaker, J. Keaveney, I. G. Hughes +3
We present experimental observations of atom-light interactions within tens of nanometers (down to 11~nm) of a sapphire surface. Using photon counting we detect the fluorescence fr…
