Optical Selection of Dark States of Multilevel Atomic Ensembles

  • Published:
Computational Mathematics and Modeling Aims and scope Submit manuscript

A method is proposed for constructing the dark states of multilevel atomic ensembles by selection based on statistical determination of the detection delay for photons escaping from a cavity. Numerical experiments are reported simulating this selection for two- and three-level atoms. Supercomputer simulation confirms the hypothesis that the general explicit form of the dark subspace is a linear combination of antisymmetric ground states of multilevel atoms.
