Thick-medium model of transverse pattern formation in optically excited cold two-level atoms with a feedback mirror
W. J. Firth, I. Kresic, G. Labeyrie +2
We study a pattern forming instability in a laser driven optically thick cloud of cold two-level atoms with a planar feedback mirror. A theoretical model is developed, enabling a f…

Analysis of pattern forming instabilities in an ensemble of two-level atoms optically excited by counter-propagating fields
W. J. Firth, I. Krešić, G. Labeyrie +3
We explore various models for the pattern forming instability in a laser-driven cloud of cold two-level atoms with a plane feedback mirror. Focus is on the combined treatment of no…

Optical pattern formation with a 2-level nonlinearity
A. Camara, R. Kaiser, G. Labeyrie +5
We present an experimental and theoretical investigation of spontaneous pattern formation in the transverse section of a single retro-reflected laser beam passing through a cloud o…
