Recording and reading of intense optical pulses based on the induced transparency

  • Published:
Radiophysics and Quantum Electronics Aims and scope

Abstract

The effect of spatial localization of the atomic (Raman) coherence in the forbidden transition of a three-level atom is studied for two intense optical pulses with comparable Rabi frequencies. We propose to use this effect for coherent recording of intense optical pulses. Various schemes of reading of the recorded pulse are considered.
