Low-frequency stimulated emission and induced absorption in a three-level atom

Abstract

We consider the excitation spectra of a bichromatically driven three-level atom in the lambda configuration and in the low-frequency domain. These dynamically induced spectra occur when the excitation fields operate at low intensities and are neither one- nor two-photon resonant with the various transitions of the system.
