Squeezed-state effect on bound–continuum transitions

Abstract

An atomic model is discussed that contains one structured continuum interacting with an electromagnetic field of quantum nature. It is assumed that the field is initially in a squeezed state. Three kinds of squeezed state are discussed: (1) the squeezed vacuum state, (2) the squeezed state with a strong coherent component, and (3) the Holstein–Primakoff SU(1, 1) coherent state. A derivation is given of a fully analytical formula for the probability of finding the system in the continuum in a long-time regime. This result is obtained by a nonperturbative method and hence is valid for arbitrary field strengths. The result is discussed for various values of the parameters describing the electromagnetic field and its interaction with the atomic model and exhibits a strong dependence of the probability on the type and the squeezing parameters of the squeezed state.

Oscillations of squeezing in microcavity

V.I. Coroli, Koroli, V.I., Король, В.И.

We study the interaction between the single-mode electromagnetic field and the pair of indistinguishable two-level atoms via the intensity-dependent coupling. This problem is equivalent to the equidistant three-level atom with equal dipole moment matrix transition elements between the adjacent levels. The exact analytical solution for the tom-field state- vector is obtained assuming that at the initial moment the field is in the Holstein-Primakoff SU (1,1) coherent state. The quantum-statistical and squeezing properties of the field are investigated. The obtained results are compared with those for the single two-level atom. It is observed that the exact periodicity of the field squeezing that takes place in the case of the single two-level atom is violated in the case of the pair of cold atoms. In other words, the exact periodicity of the physical quantities can be destroyed only if the radiation field interacts with a system of more than one two-level atom.

Ionization of a model quantum system by a single mode electromagnetic cavity field

Olga V. Tikhonova, A. M. Popov

The ionization of a model atom in a strong single-mode non-classical electromagnetic field is studied beyond the perturbation approach using the model of ``one discrete level + continuum'' for the atom. Explicit analytical expressions for the time-dependent probability of atomic ionization are obtained for different initial states of radiative field: Fock state, coherent wave packet, squeezed vacuum state. The results are compared to the ionization decay of discrete atomic level in a classical light field, and are analyzed for different mean number of radiative photons. The time-dependent distribution of the quantized field over photon number states is examined.

SQUEEZING OSCILLATIONS OF A QUANTIZED FIELD INTERACTING WITH PAIR OF COLD ATOMS VIA INTENSITY-DEPENDENT COUPLING

V. I. Koroli

We study the interaction between a single-mode electromagnetic field and a pair of indistinguishable two-level atoms via the intensity-dependent coupling. This problem is equivalent to the equidistant three-level atom with equal dipole moment matrix transition elements between the adjacent levels. The exact analytical solution for the atom–field state-vector is obtained assuming that at the initial moment the field is in the Holstein–Primakoff SU (1,1) coherent state. The quantum statistical and squeezing properties of the field are investigated. The results obtained are compared with those for the single two-level atom obtained by Buzek. We observe that the exact periodicity of the field squeezing that takes place in the case of the single two-level atom is violated in the case of the pair of cold atoms. That is, the exact periodicity of the physical quantities can be destroyed only if the radiation field interacts with a system of more than one two-level atom.

Interactions of a two-level atom with one mode of correlated two-mode field states

Christopher C. Gerry, Ronald F. Welch

We study the interaction of two-level atoms with correlated two-mode states of the quantized electromagnetic field. We assume that only one of the modes is near resonance with the atomic transition so that the second mode does not interact directly with the atom. However, we find that the presence of the second field does produce a kind of nonlocal effect in that if the atom is initially in the excited or the ground state no atomic dipole moment develops. We consider two kinds of correlated field state, namely, the correlated SU(1, 1) coherent states, which are generalizations of the two-mode squeezed vacuum states, and the so-called pair coherent states. We study the atomic inversions and the evolutions of the field statistics and of the squeezing properties of the initial field.

Interaction of a three-level atom with squeezed light

Reeta Vyas, Surendra Singh

Dynamics of a three-level atom interacting with one- and two-mode radiation fields is studied when the initial state of the field is a squeezed coherent state. All the three types of level configurations cascade; V and Lambda are considered. A model similar to the Jaynes-Cumming type developed by Yoo and Eberly1 is used. Various parameter ranges including the one in which the photon number distribution for the squeezed state exhibits oscillatory behavior2 are considered. Interesting revival structures are seen. Curves are presented to illustrate the behavior.

Phase-sensitive atomic dynamics in quantum light

Stepan N. Balybin, Roman V. Zakharov, Olga V. Tikhonova

Abstract Interaction between a quantum electromagnetic field and a model Ry atom with possible transitions to the continuum and to the low-lying resonant state is investigated. Strong sensitivity of atomic dynamics to the phase of applied coherent and squeezed vacuum light is found. Methods to extract the quantum field phase performing the measurements on the atomic system are proposed. In the case of the few-photon coherent state high accuracy of the phase determination is demonstrated, which appears to be much higher in comparison to the usually used quantum-optical methods such as homodyne detection.
