Transient Phenomena in Double Lambda-Atom System: Coherent Population Transfer

摘要

In recent years there is a great interest to transient phenomena in multilevel systems. Such transient phenomena both atom wave packet coherent scattering and coherent population transfer in the atom systems have many applications both in the area of sub-doppler laser cooling and for creation of the very efficient atom wave packet beam splitter 1. We have to point out that the method of population transfer from one of lower levels of atom system to other one has been demonstrated in 2 at the first time its applications to atom interferometry 3 and laser cooling below temperature of photon recoil 4 have been proposed.
