Double optical resonance
Abstract
A complete and detailed treatment of a three-level atom interacting with two near-resonant monochromatic fields is presented. It is assumed that the only damping mechanism is radiative damping, and that the atoms all have the same resonance frequencies, as is the case in an atomic beam. Detailed analytic solutions as well as numerical examples are determined from quantum-electrodynamic equations of motion. In addition, approximation techniques are presented which allow one to get accurate quantitative predictions for strong applied fields from simple rate-equation-like arguments. Absorption and emission spectra are determined, as are the transient and steady-state response of the atom. Two of the more interesting predictions are an emission spectrum containing up to seven components and a prediction of steady-state populations larger than 0.5 in the second excited state.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
