Nonlinear two-photon interaction of radiators with broadband squeezed vacuum

Abstract

The resonance two-photon interaction of the broadband squeezed vacuum with the dipole-forbidden two-level atoms via nonresonant virtual levels is investigated. It is demonstrated that the broadband squeezed vacuum excites coherently the system of radiators (atoms, molecules) that have dipole-forbidden transitions. The quantum statistics of the generated photon pairs in the process of resonance fluorescence is analyzed. As the broadband squeezed field is amplitude-squared squeezed the interaction of this field with the dipole-forbidden atoms can contribute in further amplitude-squared squeezing. In the high-field limit this squeezing increases when the atom number also increases.

Resonance two-photon interaction of radiators with the broadband squeezed field

N. A. Enaki, Mihai Macovei

The resonance two-photon interaction of the broadband squeezed field (without coherent displacement) with the dipole-forbidden two-level atoms via nonresonant virtual levels is investigated. It is demonstrated that the broadband squeezed field excites coherently the system of radiators (atoms, molecules) that have dipole-forbidden transitions. The two-photon Rabi frequency, in this case, is amplified due to the large number of couples of correlated modes of the broadband squeezed field involved. It should be mentioned that this coherent excitation is not specific for optical allowed dipole transitions. In the high-field limit, the quantum statistics of the photon pairs generated in the process of resonance fluorescence is analysed. As the fluorescence spectrum consists of three bands of the correlated photon pairs we analysed the second-order fluctuations in the central and sideband peaks of the triplet. It is shown that the amplitude-squared squeezing that is presented in the sidebands arises from the interaction of the spontaneously radiated photon pairs with the vacuum of the electromagnetic field.

Amplitude-squared squeezing in two-photon resonance fluorescence

N. A. Enaki, Mihai Macovei

Interaction of single-mode coherent light with dipole-forbidden two-level atoms via non-resonant virtual level is studied in this paper. It is shown that, in the case of two-photon resonance fluorescence , the atomic system generates three bands of correlated photon pairs with the carrier frequencies ω k 0 , ω k 0 ± Γ , where Γ=[Ω 2 +(Δ/2) 2 ] 1/2 , 2Ω is the two-photon Rabi frequency and Δ is the detuning from the two-photon resonance. It is established that amplitude-squared squeezing occurs from the sidebands of the two-photon resonance fluorescence spectrum . When the atom number increases, the amplitude-squared squeezing also increases.

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.

Photon-counting statistics of resonance fluorescence in a squeezed vacuum

B. N. Jagatap, S. V. Lawande

We discuss the consequences of the interaction of a broadband squeezed vacuum on the photon statistics of a coherently driven two-level atom. The statistics is described in terms of the Mandel function Q(T) and the probability P(n,T) of counting n photons in a time interval T. The phase-dependent decay in the squeezed vacuum is highlighted with these functions.

Photon-emission statistics in resonance fluorescence in a broadband squeezed vacuum

B. N. Jagatap, S. V. Lawande, Q. V. Lawande

We study the statistical properties of fluorescence from a coherently driven two-level atom placed in a broadband squeezed vacuum. The photon statistics are studied in terms of waiting time distribution or the delay function that describes the probability of emission of the very next photon following an emission of a photon initially. In an intense field limit, we analytically obtain the delay function for total emission and examine its phase-dependent behavior in a squeezed vacuum. We further analytically calculate the delay functions for the Mollow sidebands and use them to discuss the time correlation and successive emission of photons belonging to the left and right sidebands.

Off-resonant squeezed vacuum effects on a driven two-level atom: absorption and intensity harmonics

Saad S. M. Hassan, O. M. Frege, N. Nayak

The resonance fluorescence system of a coherently driven two-level atom in the presence of a broadband squeezed vacuum field whose central frequency is not in resonance with either the driving field frequency or the atomic transition frequency is analyzed. Solutions of the Bloch equations of the system are presented in terms of continued fractions for arbitrary strength of the coherent driving field. Numerical results are presented for the first-harmonic quadrature components of the absorption spectrum and the fluorescent intensity. The effects of the squeezed vacuum field detuning on the absorption spectrum result in hole burning or a dip structure in the weak-field case and two absorption–amplification peaks in the strong-field case. Results are sensitive to the relative phase of the squeezed vacuum.
