Cooperative effects in a one-photon micromaser with atomic polarization

M. L. Ladrón de Guevara, Miguel Orszag, R. Ramírez +1 more

We study the cooperative effects in a one-photon micromaser with atomic polarization. We find that the injected polarization makes the micromaser more insensitive to cooperative effects as compared to the unpolarized case. Although probability diffusion in phase space takes place and spikes develop in the average photon number, the squeezing properties of the cotangent states are more affected by the cavity losses than by the presence of two atoms in the micromaser cavity.

QUANTUM STATISTICAL PROPERTIES OF RADIATION

Shahid Qamar

We present a study on the quantum statistical properties of radiation in a one-photon micromaser. In particular, the possibility of generating steady-state squeezing is investigated. The spectral properties of the radiation field in a micromaser are also studied. \n \nWe show that the steady-state squeezing can be generated in a lossless micromaser by injecting the atoms in a coherent superposition of upper and lower states. It is shown by considering initial vacuum number and thermal state of the cavity field, that for a particular choice of the interaction time field evolves to a squeezed state. Steady- state squeezing is found to be independent of the initial state of the cavity field. However, the temporal evolution of the squeezing depends on the initial state of the field. Effects of cavity losses and pump fluctuations on steady-state squeezing are also investigated. \n \nFinally, an exact analytic expression for the linewidth of a micromaser in the absence of cavity losses is obtained by evaluating the two-time correlation function. A comparison with the natural linewidth of laser shows that under certain conditions gain contribution to the linewidth is same in both the cases. We also, derive an exact expression for the phoston distribution function and show that for a particular choice of the interaction time, the number state of the field can be generated.
