Abstract
In this article a new scheme of three level atomic configuration is presented. The propagation and distortion management of a pulse is investigated without and in the presence of Compton scattering effect. The absorption and dispersion of a light beam is studied with the variation of control field and probe field detuning as well as strength of control field Rabi frequency. The Compton scattering angle significantly affect the absorption, dispersion and shape of the pulse. The absorption drops to zero at resonance point, and rapid decay is noted with the Compton scattering angle phi. The fractional change in distortion goes to 100%, when phi exceeds from phi /6. The fractional change in distortion with the control field Rabi frequency is smaller as compared to probe and control field detuning at the same scattered angle phi. This work will have potential applications in measurement of atmospheric wavefront distortion through light scattering from a laser beam. It can also be employed in plasmonic crystals which is used in neon light, plasma screens, computer chips and solar cells.
