Abstract
We study all possible configurations (V, Lambda, Xi) of a three-level atom coupled to a single-mode, frequency-tunable cavity field with a pre-selecte d polarization in the bad cavity limit, and show that maximal quantum inter ference (equivalently two parallel dipole transition moments) can be achiev ed in such a system. We specifically examine the effects of the cavity-indu ced interference in the context of the probe absorption spectrum in the V-s ystem. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
