Nonperturbative theory of cavity-controlled spontaneous emission of two-level atom trapped in two crossed cavities
Vladislav Cheltsov
Abstract
The time-dependent spontaneous emission spectral line shape of two level motionless atom placed in common antinode of two symmetrically detuned lossless modes has been investigated nonperturbatively. The line shape and its temporal evolution have been found to be a function of modes detuning and natural line width of isolated atom. The spectrum varies between singlet and triplet taking on the well-known Lorentz-shape form when detuning and natural line width become much larger than the coupling constant of interaction of the atom with modes.
