Jaynes-Cummings model:Counter rotating effect on the vacuum Rabi splitting and atom-cavity dynamics

Abstract

he effect of the counter-rotating terms in the Jaynes-Cummings model is investigated with an extended coherent-state approach. The counter-rotating terms greatly modify the vacuum Rabi splitting. Two peaks with different heights in the weak coupling regime and more than two peaks in the intermediate coupling regime are predicted. The collapses and revivals in the evolution of the atomic population inversion disappear in the intermediate coupling regime, but reappear in the strong coupling regime. This reappearance is similar to that under the rotating-wave approximation, attributed to the summation of periodic cosine functions of the evolution.

Vacuum Rabi Splitting and Dynamics of the Jaynes—Cummings Model for Arbitrary Coupling

Yuyu Zhang, Qing‐Hu Chen, Shi-Yao Zhu

The effects of counter-rotating terms (CRTs) on Rabi splitting and the dynamic evolution of atomic population in the Jaynes—Cummings model are studied with a coherent-state approach. When the coupling strength increases, the Rabi splitting becomes of multi-Rabi frequencies for the initial state of an excited atom in a vacuum field, and the collapses and revivals gradually disappear, and then reappear with quite good periodicity. Without the rotating-wave approximation (RWA), the initial excited state contains many eigenstates rather than two eigenstates under the RWA, which results in the multi-peak emission spectrum. An analytical approximate solution for the strong coupling regime is obtained, which gives a new oscillation frequency and explains the recovery of collapses and revivals due to the equal energy spacing.

Jaynes-Cummings model: What emerges first beyond the rotating-wave approximation?

S. M. He, Qing‐Hu Chen, Xuezao Ren +2 more

The Jaynes-Cummings model without the rotating-wave approximation can be solved exactly by extended Swain's ansatz with the conserved parity. The analytical approximations are then performed at different levels. The well-known rotating-wave approximation is naturally covered in the present zero and first approximations. The effect of the counter rotating-wave term emerges clearly in the second order approximation. The concise analytical expressions are given explicitly and can be applicable up to the ultra-strong coupling regime. The preliminary application to the vacuum Rabi splitting is shown to be very successful.

First-order corrections to the rotating-wave approximation in the Jaynes-Cummings model

Shu He, Chen Wang, Qing‐Hu Chen +3 more

The Jaynes-Cummings model without the rotating-wave approximation can be solved exactly by an extended Swain ansatz with conserved parity. Analytical approximations are then performed at different levels. The well-known rotating-wave approximation (RWA) is naturally covered in the present zeroth- and first-order approximations. A first-order correction to the RWA can be obtained in a second-order approximation, by which the effect of the counter-rotating-wave term emerges clearly. Concise analytical expressions are given explicitly and can be applicable up to the ultrastrong-coupling regime. A preliminary application to vacuum Rabi splitting is shown to be very successful.

Analytical Solution for the Anisotropic Rabi Model: Effects of Counter-Rotating Terms

Guofeng Zhang, Han‐Jie Zhu

The anisotropic Rabi model, which was proposed recently, differs from the original Rabi model: the rotating and counter-rotating terms are governed by two different coupling constants. This feature allows us to vary the counter-rotating interaction independently and explore the effects of it on some quantum properties. In this paper, we eliminate the counter-rotating terms approximately and obtain the analytical energy spectrums and wavefunctions. These analytical results agree well with the numerical calculations in a wide range of the parameters including the ultrastrong coupling regime. In the weak counter-rotating coupling limit we find out that the counter-rotating terms can be considered as the shifts to the parameters of the Jaynes-Cummings model. This modification shows the validness of the rotating-wave approximation on the assumption of near-resonance and relatively weak coupling. Moreover, the analytical expressions of several physics quantities are also derived, and the results show the break-down of the U(1)-symmetry and the deviation from the Jaynes-Cummings model.

Vacuum Rabi Oscillation of an Atom without Rotating-Wave Approximation

Wang Fa-Qiang, Weici Liu, Ruisheng Liang

We have investigated vacuum Rabi oscillation of an atom coupled with single-mode cavity field exactly, and compared the results with that of the Jaynes–Cummings (J–C) model. The results show that for resonant case, there is no Rabi oscillation for an atom. For small detuning and weak coupling case, the probability for the atom in excited state oscillates against time with different frequencies and amplitudes from that of the J-C model. It exhibits that the counter-rotating wave interaction could significantly effect the dynamic behaviour of the atom, even under the condition in which the RWA is considered to be justified.

Counter rotating terms and dipole–dipole interaction effects on the entanglement and population inversion of two qubits interacting with a two-mode field

Farshid Jahanbakhsh, Mohammad Kazem Tavassoly

Recalling that counter rotating terms (CRTs) in atom–field interaction are not always ignorable, particularly in the strong coupling regimes of atom–field systems, in this paper we are going to study the interaction between two qubits (two-level atoms) with a two-mode field in a high quality cavity by considering CRTs while the dipole–dipole (D–D) interaction is also taken into account. Indeed, by performing an appropriate dynamical Hamiltonian associated with the Jaynes–Cummings and anti-Jaynes–Cummings terms, as well as the D–D interaction for the system, we solve the corresponding time-dependent Schrödinger equation with specific initial conditions for atoms and field. In the continuation, concurrence, as an appropriate measure of the degree of entanglement of the two qubits, and atomic population inversion of the qubits, as the rate of energy exchange between atoms and field, are evaluated. Meanwhile, we investigate the influence of CRTs and D–D interaction (as well as other involved parameters in the model interaction) on the mentioned quantities. Our numerical results indicate that collapse-revival phenomenon can be observed in the absence of D–D interaction with or without rotating wave approximation, however, CRTs cause an increase or decrease in the number of collapse-revivals in a finite interval of time, depending on the chosen parameters. In fact, by entering the D–D interaction term, this phenomenon is destroyed and the time behaviour of the quantities experiences irregular oscillations. Noticing that the initial field is considered in the vacuum state, the occurrence of collapse-revival in the population inversion of the two qubits is an interesting feature of this work. As is shown, the degree of entanglement and atomic population inversion of the qubits can generally be tuned, and the death of entanglement can be prevented, both by adjusting the evolved parameters in the model.
