Thomas Wellens, Benoit Gremaud, Dominique Delande, Christian Miniatura

摘要:

本文研究了弱非线性条件下单色激光与冷二能级原子的相干后向散射。原子的非线性响应导致平均场传播(非线性折射率)和散射事件的修改。使用微扰方法,非线性效应产生的非弹性双光子散射过程。我们提出了一个详细的图解推导的弹性和非弹性分量的后向散射信号的标量和矢量光子。特别是,我们表明,相干后向散射现象起源于在某些情况下,从三个不同的散射振幅之间的干涉。这与线性区域形成鲜明对比,在线性区域中,这是由于两个不同的散射振幅之间的干涉。特别是,我们表明,如果弹性散射光子从光检测信号中过滤掉,非线性后向散射增强因子超过线性障碍2,一致的三振幅干涉效应。

英文摘要:

We study coherent backscattering of a monochromatic laser by a dilute gas of cold two-level atoms in the weakly nonlinear regime. The nonlinear response of the atoms results in a modification of both the average field propagation (nonlinear refractive index) and the scattering events. Using a perturbative approach, the nonlinear effects arise from inelastic two-photon scattering processes. We present a detailed diagrammatic derivation of the elastic and inelastic components of the backscattering signal both for scalar and vectorial photons. Especially, we show that the coherent backscattering phenomenon originates in some cases from the interference between three different scattering amplitudes. This is in marked contrast with the linear regime where it is due to the interference between two different scattering amplitudes. In particular we show that, if elastically scattered photons are filtered out from the photo-detection signal, the nonlinear backscattering enhancement factor exceeds the linear barrier two, consistently with a three-amplitude interference effect.
