Abstract

We discuss the vacuum Rabi splitting (VRS) from multilevel atoms under electromagnetically induced transparency condition within the framework of linear absorption-dispersion theory. Sharp resonance features superimposed on usually occurring VRS doublet to three-peaked structure spectra are obtained here which can be engineered to have absorptive, dispersive, or dip like profiles according to the choice of system parameters such as radiative damping constants, atomic detunings and driving field strengths etc.
