In this paper, we analyse the propagation of a short light pulse through a 1D quantum metamaterial structure, composed of arranged artificial two-level quantum systems. We set up the model which material substance is treated quantum mechanically, while the electromagnetic pulse is classical. On the basis of the adopted model, we investigate the short light pulse propagation through the structure in dependence on the initial state of irradiated two-level systems, the amplitude of the incident light pulse, and the frequency of the pulse carrier wave. Finally, we determine the regimes when the incident pulse can propagate in undistorted soliton form.

关于短电磁脉冲通过量子超材料的传播

在本文中，我们分析了短光脉冲通过一维量子超材料结构的传播，该结构由排列的人工两级量子系统组成。我们建立了将物质机械地量子化的模型，而电磁脉冲是经典的。在采用的模型的基础上，我们根据照射的两能级系统的初始状态，入射光脉冲的幅度和脉冲载波的频率来研究短光脉冲在结构中的传播。最后，我们确定入射脉冲可以以未畸变孤子形式传播的方式。
