Abstract

We demonstrate electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) in a sample of\nrubidium atoms, trapped in an optical dipole trap. Mixing a small amount of\n\σ^--polarized light to the weak \σ⁺-polarized probe pulses, we\nare able to measure the absorptive and dispersive properties of the atomic\nmedium at the same time. Features as small as 4 kHz have been detected on an\nabsorption line with 20 MHz line width.\n
