Phase-Control of Photoabsorption in Optically Dense Media
David Petrosyan, P. Lambropoulos
abstract: We present a self-consistent theory, as well as an illustrative application
to a realistic system, of phase control of photoabsorption in an optically
dense medium. We demonstrate that, when propagation effects are taken into
consideration, the impact on phase control is significant. Independently of the
value of the initial phase difference between the two fields, over a short
scaled distance of propagation, the medium tends to settle the relative phase
so that it cancels the atomic excitation. In addition, we find some rather
unusual behavior for an optically thin layer.
