Gr. Welch et al., OBSERVATION OF V-TYPE ELECTROMAGNETICALLY INDUCED TRANSPARENCY IN A SODIUM ATOMIC-BEAM, Foundations of physics, 28(4), 1998, pp. 621-638
We have conducted an experimental study of V-type electromagnetically
induced transparency in sodium. Its principles are elucidated by a sim
ple model. Measurements show decreased fluorescence and absorption dep
ending on the detuning of the driving and probe fields, which is in ag
reement with the results of numerical simulation.
