Light transport in cold atoms: dephasing processes

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

We will present some experimental and theoretical studies on several dephasing processes that affect interference effects in multiple scattering of light in cold atomic samples: residual motion and internal structure of the scatterers, saturation of the atomic optical transition. All these processes reduce the CBS effect and should be circumvented in the quest for strong localization of light in cold atomic clouds.
