Sub-Doppler noise-immune cavity-enhanced optical heterodyne molecular spectrometry modeling: from Doppler broadening to cross-sideband resonances

Abstract

An analytical methodology is presented to calculate spectra provided by NICE-OHMS. It is based on the solutions of the equations of motion of an open two-blocked-level system performed in the frequency domain. The polychromaticity of the impinging electromagnetic field, furthermore, trapped inside a high-finesse cavity, is a potential source of induced resonances when this field interacts with a weakly absorbing nonlinear medium. These are optimal conditions to produce the well-established hole burning. However, the radio-frequency sidebands intrinsically associated with the NICE-OHMS technique require a specific treatment for describing both absorption and optical phase shift contributions. To validate the approach, numerical simulations of two transitions of C2H2 in the near-infrared range are discussed. The Doppler broadening-free cross-sideband resonances have been clearly characterized under the regime of moderate electromagnetically induced saturation. Comparison to experimental data available [Opt. Express 16, 14689 (2008) [CrossRef]  ] allowed us to assess the eligibility of the approach.
