Abstract.A theoretical study of the nonlinearity reduction in a four-level system of potassium, atom in the presence of a strong nanosecond laser field, which excites the transition 1/2 1/2 4S 6S ↔ with two photons, is presented. It is shown, that the destructive quantum interference between the laser field and the internally generated radiations results in a linear response of the atomic path-1 ( 1/2
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
