Effect of dispersion forces on squeezing with Rydberg atoms

Abstract

We report exact results concerning the effect of dipole-dipole interaction (dispersion forces) on dynamic and steady-state characteristics of squeezing in the emitted fluorescent field from two identical coherently driven two-level atoms. The atomic system is subjected to three different damping baths in particular the normal vacuum, a broad band thermal field and a broad band squeezed vacuum. The atomic model is the Dicke model, hence possible experiments are most likely to agree with theory when performed on systems of Rydberg atoms making microwave transitions. The presence of dipole-dipole interaction can enhance squeezing for realizable values of the various parameters involved.

Effect of the Dipole-dipole Interaction on the Pure Two-atom Squeezed State

Z. Ficek

The influence of the dipole-dipole interaction on the final atomic state of a two-atom system driven by a coherent laser field and damped by a broad-band squeezed vacuum is discussed. It is shown that in the absence of a coherent laser field the final atomic state is independent of the dipole-dipole interaction and can be the pure two-atom squeezed state only if detuning of the squeezed vacuum field from atomic resonance is equal to zero. In the presence of a coherent laser field, the final atomic state depends on the dipole-dipole interaction. As the latter increases, the final atomic state shifts from a mixed state to the pure two-atom squeezed state. However, this happens only if the driving field and the squeezed field frequencies are tuned to the atomic transition frequency. For the driving field and the squeezed vacuum field frequencies detuned from atomic resonance the system decays into a mixed state irrespective of the dipole-dipole interaction between the atoms.

THE TWO-ATOM DICKE MODEL IN A SQUEEZED VACUUM: THE FLUORESCENT SPECTRUM INCLUDING DIPOLE-DIPOLE INTERACTION

Ravinder Rupchand Puri, Amitabh Joshi, R. Bullough

The spectrum of resonance fluorescence from a system of two identical coherently driven two-level atoms interacting with a broadband squeezed bath is studied by including the atomic dipole-dipole interaction. The spectral characteristics are studied by solving the master equation numerically and also by deriving the analytic expressions in the limit of strong driving field.

Field-dependent atomic relaxation in a squeezed vacuum

Saad S. M. Hassan, T. Jarad, Ravinder Rupchand Puri +1 more

The relaxation process of a single two-level atom driven by an intense resonant coherent field is studied in the presence of a broadband squeezed vacuum field. Generalized forms for the self-field operator and the field-dependent damping coefficients are derived. In the steady state, positive atomic inversion (~5%) is shown for some range of the phase of the squeezed vacuum field. The squeezing-induced enhanced and asymmetric coherence (i.e.?non-zero dispersive atomic polarization) induces profound asymmetry in the side-bands of the Mollow fluorescent spectrum and the absorptive?dispersive spectra near the Rabi side-band frequencies. The case of two and three cooperative atoms, instead of a single atom, shows (i)?positive atomic inversion in the steady state for larger interval of the squeeze phase parameter and more enhanced extrema for the atomic polarization components and (ii) the extra side peaks in the fluorescent spectrum become asymmetric and of dispersive-like profile. Dressed-state analysis in the single-atom case with the field-dependent decay process in the presence of the squeezed vacuum field is presented and shows that the inequality of the (field-dependent) decay rates of the dressed states leads to more positive inversion in the dressed states as compared with the normal vacuum case.

Two-atom resonance fluorescence spectrum in a squeezed vacuum including the dipole-dipole interaction

Z. Ficek, Barry C. Sanders

The authors investigate the dipole-dipole interaction role in the resonance fluorescence of two identical two-level atoms, which are confined to a region much smaller than the resonant wavelength and which are damped by a squeezed vacuum. The spectrum consists of seven or five lines, depending on the relative phase between the driving field and the squeezed vacuum, whereas the spectrum without the dipole-dipole interaction displays three lines. The widths of these lines depend on the parameters of the squeezed vacuum and can be subnatural or supernatural depending on the phase. The central line and additional sidebands at double the Rabi frequency can have intensities larger than in the normal vacuum but the intensities of lines at one Rabi frequency are always less than in the normal vacuum.

ON THE NATURE OF FLUORESCENT SPECTRUM OF A TWO ATOM DICKE MODEL IN A NARROW BANDWIDTH SQUEEZED BATH

Amitabh Joshi, Ravinder Rupchand Puri

We discuss the spectrum of resonance fluorescence from a system of two identical coherently driven two-level atoms interacting with a finite bandwidth squeezed bath, including the atomic dipole-dipole interaction between the atoms. The characteristics of the spectral features are studied by solving the master equation analytically in the limit of strong driving field. The comparison of these features with respect to an ordinary bath as well as broadband squeezed bath are also presented.

Squeezing via mixing of two modes in a system of driven two-level atoms

Tran Quang

The squeezing in a mixture of two high-Q cavity modes interacting with strongly driven two-level atoms is discussed for the case in which these two modes are located near the two sidebands of collective resonance fluorescence. The collective effects, cavity damping, and thermal field are accounted for. For suitable values of the parameters of the system, as in recent experiments with Rydberg atoms, a large squeezing can be obtained.
