Quantum control of an optically dense atomic medium: Pulse shaping in a V-type three-level system

In this paper, we suggest a straight-forward technique to control the atomic population inversion in a three-level dense medium based on the pulse shaping with a phase-jump. A strong stokes field and two weak probe fields excite the atomic medium via the V-type configuration. First, we reveal that t...
