[2] A laser working under this scheme exploits the quantum interference between the probability amplitudes of atomic transitions in order to eliminate absorption without disturbing the stimulated emission.
[3] This phenomenon is also the essence of electromagnetically induced transparency.
[4] The basic LWI concept was first predicted by Ali Javan in 1956.
[5][6] The first demonstration of LWI was carried out by Marlan Scully in an experiment in rubidium and sodium at Texas A&M University, and then at NIST in Boulder.
