We derive the properties of polaritons in single-Λ and double-Λ media using a microscopic equation-of-motion technique. In each case, the polaritonic dispersion relation and composition arise from a matrix eigenvalue problem for arbitrary control field strengths. We show that the double-Λ medium...
