8.421 Atomic and Optical Physics I
8.421 Atomic and Optical Physics I (Spring 2014, MIT OCW). Instructor: Professor Wolfgang Ketterle. This is the first of a two-semester subject sequence that provides the foundations for contemporary research in selected areas of atomic and optical physics. Topics covered include the interaction of radiation with atoms: resonance; absorption, stimulated and spontaneous emission; methods of resonance, dressed atom formalism, masers and lasers, cavity quantum electrodynamics; structure of simple atoms, behavior in very strong fields; fundamental tests: time reversal, parity violations, Bell's inequalities; and experimental methods.

In this video, the professor reviewed dark state transfer and discussed about using AC electric fields to mix S and P states, electromagnetic induced transparency (EIT), Fano profile, two-photon absorption, and slow light.
