Controlling Magneto-Optical Rotation via Atomic COherences
Abstract
An isotropic medium, having magnetic sublevels, when subjected to a magnetic field or an electromagnetic field can induce anisotropy in the medium; and as a result the plane of polarization of the probe field can rotate. Therefore the rotation due to the magnetic field alone, can be controlled efficiently with use of a coherent field. We show, using a control field, significant enhancement of the magneto-optical rotation and demonstrate the possibility of realizing magneto-optical switch.
