Switching between photon-photon correlations and Raman anticorrelations in a coherently prepared Rb vapor
Abstract
We have experimentally observed switching between photon-photon correlations and anticorrelations between two orthogonally polarized laser beams in an electromagnetically induced transparency configuration in Rb vapor. The correlation and anticorrelation switching occurs at a specific magnetic field strength.
