Abstract

We have theoretically studied the possibility of using the phenomenon of phase switching of coherent population trapping for creating a switch of light propagation direction in electromagnetically induced gratings in a medium with Λ-atoms. The permissible region of this effect application is determined and the parameters are found which ensure the obtaining of a high-efficiency scheme of the spatial redistribution of probing field intensity on atomic density gratings.
