摘要
We demonstrate very high-contrast coherent population trapping(1) (CPT) resonances by using four-wave mixing in Rb-87 atoms. In the experiment, we take advantage of the spectral overlap between F=2 -> F' and F=3 -> F' optical resonances on the D1 line of Rb-87 and Rb-85 atoms, respectively, to eliminate the DC-light background from the CPT resonance signal. We observe a CPT resonance with a contrast in the range of 90%, compared with a few percent achieved by alternative methods.
