Abstract
Electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) and related effects have been the subject of a great deal of recent research.1−4 Though experiments in which a strong probe field was applied to an EIT system have been performed using pulsed lasers, previous investigations of the steady-state response of an EIT system to cw lasers have focused on the limit in which the probe field is weak. We investigate the behavior of an inhomogeneously broadened ladder system interacting with probe and control fields that are both strong.
