In this paper,we study the effect of spontaneously generated coherence(SGC) on transient evolution of gain without inversion(GWI) in a Doppler broadened quasi Λ-type four-level atomic system.It is shown that transient evolution of GWI is very sensitive to the variation of SGC strength,and the transient maximum value and steady value of GWI both increase with SGC strength increasing.The transient and steady values of GWI with SGC are much larger than those without SGC.When Doppler broadening is present,the transient maximum value and steady value of GWI first increase and then decrease with Doppler broadening width(D) increasing,and the value of D which corresponds to the maximum transient GWI is different from that corresponding to the maximum steady GWI.The time needed for reaching the steady GWI increases with D increasing.The steady GWI,which is larger than that without Doppler broadening(D = 0),can be obtained by choosing appropriate D and SGC strength.
It is shown that in a Doppler broadened open N-type four-level atomic system with spontaneously generated coherence (SGC), the gain without inversion (GWI) is very sensitive to the variation of the relative phase between the probe field and the driving field; the atomic exit rate (R0) and the ratio (S) of the atomic injection rates have a considerable modulation effect on the phase-dependent GWI. GWI first increases and then decreases with R0 increasing; in a certain value range of S, GWI increases monotonically with S increasing; by adjusting the values of R0 and S, in an open system a much larger GWI can be obtained than in the corresponding closed system [2011 Phys. Rev. A 83 043805]. The modulation effects of R0 and S on the phase-dependent GWI in the case with the counter-propagating probe and driving fields are stronger than those in the co-propagating case, GWI in the co-propagating case is much larger than that in the counter-propagating case.
We investigate the effects of noisy quantum channels on the entanglement of cluster states and one way quantum computational gates.We take a basic model,the rotational gate about x axis based on the cluster state,in order to get the most essential effects of the paradigmatic noisy quantum channels.The entanglement of cluster states in the noisy channels and the fidelity between the rotated state without noisy channel and that with noisy channel are calculated.
