Observation of ladder-type electromagnetically induced transparency with atomic optical lattices near a nanofiber
Tapered nanofiber is an efficient tool for enhancing light–matter interactions. Here, we experimentally demonstrate the ladder-type electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) in one-dimensional atomic lattices near an optical nanofiber (ONF). A typical EIT signal is well fitted from experimental...

| description | Tapered nanofiber is an efficient tool for enhancing light–matter interactions. Here, we experimentally demonstrate the ladder-type electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) in one-dimensional atomic lattices near an optical nanofiber (ONF). A typical EIT signal is well fitted from experimental data according to a semiclassical model and implies a transmission nearly 35%. We investigate the dependence of EIT transmission on the coupling power and its saturation condition. In addition, we show a large fraction of the transmission spectral broadening is induced by lattice effects. Our results may pave the road towards generating correlations and entanglement through four-wave mixing with ONFs, which may facilitate the realization of efficient quantum optical networks. |
