摘要
An optical four-level atomic discrete system in a solid through optical induction is proposed. A theoretical scheme to produce lattice solitons (LSs) in the system is presented by means of the effects of enhanced self-phase modulation and the giant kerr effect in the electromagnetically induced transparency. The power density and the photon flux can be tuned to a very low level by the controlling field and the soliton can propagate with very slow group velocity. By changing the sign of the detuning Delta(1), both in-phase and pi out-of-phase LSs can be produced in this system.
