摘要
We report an experimental observation of electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) in Pr3+:LaF3 at liquid helium temperature at the H-3(4)(0)-D-1(2) (16872 cm(-1)) transition. Transparency resonance at ground state hyperfine sublevels (in a Lambda scheme) and a dispersion-shaped resonance due to excited state hyperfine coherences (in a V scheme) are detected. Theoretical analysis taking into account the six-level Pr3+ level structure gives qualitative agreement with the experiment.
