Abstract

The transfer of optical vortices is studied based on double two-photon processes in a four-level diamond configuration system. A pair of strong fields are applied to prepare atomic coherence, while two weak probe fields are coupled with the other two transitions. When the two-photon resonances are satisfied, the analytical results for the intensities of the probe fields are calculated using perturbation theory and an adiabatic approximation approach. Our results explore whether the orbital angular momentum of an input probe beam or the second control field can be transferred to the generated probe field, and this is verified by numerical simulation. It is interesting that as the intensities of the control fields increase, the propagation of probe beams exhibits oscillation behaviors only when the one-photon detuning is nonzero. Furthermore, we show that the absorption losses are minimized, and the transfer efficiency is enhanced by appropriately modifying the one-photon detuning together with the control-field Rabi frequencies.
