Coherent control of the incident light propagation in a defect one-dimensional photonic crystal

Abstract

Abstract In this paper, we have discussed the transmission and reflection properties of the infrared laser pulse propagated through one-dimensional photonic crystal (1DPC) with single layer of graphene nanotrusses. The single layer graphene system interacts with a probe laser field and two coupling lights. We analytically solve the optical susceptibility of the single layer graphene system for adapting the dielectric function of the 1DPC. After that we discuss the transmission and reflection properties of the incident laser pulse on 1DPC by controlling the intensity for the coupling lights and relative phase between applied lights. We have also found that the absorption and population spectrums of the medium can be controlled by the relative phase between applied lights. Our results show that the gain without population inversion can be obtained for the simultaneous slow light propagation in the transmission and reflection pulses. Our results may have potential application in the future of the all-optical devices in quantum technologies.
