“…Polarizations of the involved laser beams can play important roles in electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) [1][2][3] and four-wave mixing (FWM) processes [4][5][6][7] when multi-Zeeman energy levels are involved in the atomic systems [8,9]. Several previous experimental and theoretical studies have shown that EIT and FWM processes can be effectively controlled by selecting different transitions among Zeeman sublevels via the polarization states of the laser beams [3,7,8].…”

We show that the four-wave mixing (FWM) processes in a multi-Zeeman level atomic system can be enhanced and suppressed by changing the polarization of one of the pump beams. Different polarization states of the pump beams will act on different transition pathways among the multi-Zeeman levels with different transition strengths, which affect the FWM efficiencies. An additional dress field applied to the adjacent transition can cause energy level splitting and therefore control the enhancement and suppression of the FWM processes in the system. The experimental results are in good agreement with our theoretical calculations.

“…3(a)), which is in accordance with the classical polarization spectroscopy (sinusoidal law). [6,7] The triangles give the dependence of the maximum depth of suppression peaks versus θ , which denotes that the dressing strength is increasing as E 1 changes from the linearly to the circularly polarized state. This is because the polarization variation transforms the energy distribution among the various transition paths: for example, linearly polarized transitions to circular ones.…”

We demonstrate the enhancement and suppression of four-wave mixing (FWM) in an electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) window in Y-type 85 Rb atomic system. The generated two-photon FWM signal can be selectively enhanced and suppressed via an EIT window. The EIT of probe as well as the enhancement and suppression of FWM signals can be modified by the sequential-cascade double dressing. The influence of different probe polarization configurations is also studied. Different polarization states of the probe laser can select different transitions among Zeeman sublevels and different dressing strengths.

We have demonstrated the Autler-Townes (AT) splitting of the four-wave mixing (FWM) process and the six-wave mixing (SWM) process in an electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) window in five-level atomic vapor of 87 Rb. Moreover, we discuss interactions of multi-dressed states. The experimental results agree well with the theoretical analysis.four-wave mixing, six-wave mixing, multi-dressed states, Autler-Townes splitting PACS: 42.56. ES, 42.65.Re,42.50.Ar, 42.65.Hw
