We show both analytically and numerically that the polarization contribution to the local field strongly modulates the phase of a weak pulse. We give an intuitive explanation for this local field induced phase modulation and show that it distinctively differs from the nonlinear self-phase modulation a strong pulse experiences in a Kerr medium.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2010-07-15T15:54:09.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "42.50.Gy", "42.65.Sf", "42.65.An" ], "keywords": [ "cooperative effects", "local field induced phase modulation", "local field strongly modulates", "nonlinear self-phase modulation" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Physical Review A", "doi": "10.1103/PhysRevA.82.013815", "year": 2010, "month": "Jul", "volume": 82, "number": 1, "pages": "013815" }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2010PhRvA..82a3815F" } } }
