Group velocity dispersion (GVD) in near-resonant hot atomic vapors is difficult to measure with standard pulse broadening or interferometric techniques, as absorption, pulse distortion and nonlinearities strongly affect the probe and reduce…
The capability of optical resonators to extend the effective radiation-matter interaction length originates from a multipass effect, hence is intrinsically limited by the resonator quality factor. Here, we show that this constraint can be…
Electromagnetic radiation is strongly absorbed by the magnetized plasma if its frequency equals the cyclotron frequency of plasma electrons. It is demonstrated that absorption can be completely canceled in the presence of a second radiation…
