The effect of quantum interference arising from spontaneous emission and incoherent pumping on 013 and OM is discussed. It is found that the threshold of OB and OM can be controlled by quantum interference mechanisms. In addition intensity of coupling field and the rate of an incoherent pumping field on behavior of OB and OM are then discussed.展开更多

It is shown that the lateral shift can become either large negative or large positive, which can be controlled by the electron tunneling and the rate of incoherent pump field in different incident angles. It is also demonstrated that the properties of the OH shifts are strongly dependent on the probe absorption beam of the intracavity medium due to the switching from superluminal light propagation to subluminal behavior or vice versa. Our suggested system can be considered as a new theoretical method for developing a new nano-optoelectronic sensor.展开更多

Compared with that generated in a general four- level system, the Kerr nonlinearity can be enhanced by several orders of magnitude with vanishing linear absorption. By using the numerical results, we show that the remarkable enhancement should be attributed to the interaction of the quantum coherences from the decays and the incoherent pumping.展开更多

With the typ- ical parameters of a GaAs/AlGaAs heterostructure, the simultaneous negative relative electric permittivity and magnetic permeability are obtained by the adjustable incoherent pumping field and two inter-dot tunnelings. Furthermore, three zero-absorption windows in the left-handedness frequency bands are observed. The left- handedness with zero-absorption in the solid state heterostrueture may solve the challenges not only in the left-handed materials achieved by the photonic resonant scheme but also in the application of negative refractive materials with a large amount of absorption.展开更多

It is found that intensity threshold of optical bistability can be manipulated by Fano interference. It is shown that incoherent pumping fields make the threshold of optical bistability behave differently by Fano interference. Moreover, in the presence of Fano interference the medium becomes phase-dependent. Therefore, the relative phase of applied fields can affect the behaviors of optical bistability and intensity threshold can be controlled easily.展开更多
