TLDR
In this paper, the self-induced transparency problem is studied out of resonance and it is shown that the shape of the absorbing medium on the light pulse appears to be similar but much slower than at resonance.

Theory of two-photon resonant up-conversion with ultrashort pulses. I. Third-harmonic generation

J N Elgin, +1 more
- 14 Oct 1978 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the theory of third-harmonic generation under perfect two-photon resonant conditions is analyzed for an ultrashort fundamental pulse and analytic solutions governing its evolution can be obtained.

Coherent control of spectra effects with chirped femtosecond laser pulse

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the coherent control of spectra effects with chirped femtosecond laser pulse propagation in a two-level-atom medium and found that the spectral feature depends crucially on the sign and magnitude of the initial chirp rate.

II Self-Induced Transparency

TL;DR: In this paper, the basic theory of self-induced transparency (SIT) was discussed using a plane wave incident optical pulse with uniform intensity, and several laser-absorber systems were used to verify the theoretical predictions.

Near-resonant propagation of the light pulse in a homogeneously broadened two-level medium

TL;DR: In this article, off-resonance light-pulse propagation in a homogeneously broadened medium composed of two-level atoms is numerically simulated and the dependence of the stabilization effect of the pulse area on the detuning and perpendicular relaxation rate is investigated.

A note on frequency pulling in resonant media

TL;DR: In this paper, the carrier frequency of an undistorted optical pulse adjusts to the central atomic frequency of the resonant medium in which it propagates, depending on three parameters: conductivity, homogeneous relaxation time, and the difference between the light phase velocity in the host medium and the assumed pulse velocity.

Propagation of ultrashort optical pulses

G.L. Lamb
- 14 Aug 1967 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, a model for optical pulse propagation in a two-level medium having relaxation times which are long compared to pulse length is summarized, where the shape of a pulse is described by solutions of a single nonlinear partial differential equation.
