title: Harnessing quantum superposition and interference in atomic systems.
abstract: We propose resilient quantum superposition states in closed-loop multilevel system which result in myriad quantum interference phenomena. An interplay of these superposition states results in a whole gamut of atomic phenomena including coherent population trapping (CPT), electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT), electromagnetically induced absorption (EIA), amplification without inversion (AWI) and enhancement of refractive index accompanied with negligible absorption. The polarization and the phases of the fields transform the underlying superposition of the excited states leading to all these effects, where, given the macroscopic nature of these phenomena the quantum superposition states as well as the synergy between them can be ascertained. Numerical simulations for D1 transition in room temperature Rb87atomic vapour system bear out these findings.
