The interaction between a four-levelN-type atom and two-mode cavity field in the presence of a Kerr medium

Abstract

In this paper, we investigate the collapse-revival phenomenon and the Poissonian statistics of a four-level N -configuration atom interacting with two-mode cavity fields. We assume that the transition between the upper level and the third level of an atom is coupled by the frequency of mode one, while the other transitions are coupled by the frequencies of the two modes or mode two. The interaction is a multi-photon process and a Kerr medium is taken into account in the non-resonant case. We solve the models when the atom is initially prepared in a coherent superposition of the upper and ground states and the field is considered in a coherent state. The effects of both the detuning and the Kerr medium on the temporal behaviour of some statistical aspects are analysed. The conclusions are reached and some features are given.

A moving four-levelN-type atom interacting with cavity fields

N. H. Abdel-Wahab

We study the non-resonant interaction of a moving four-level N -type atom with cavity fields in the presence of a nonlinear Kerr-like medium. The exact solutions of the considered models are obtained when the atom is initially in an upper state, while the field is in a coherent state. We derive an expression for the occupation numbers of the photon state. Also, the momentum increment of the atomic system is obtained. The influence of the detuning parameters or the Kerr medium on the evolution time of the momentum increment is examined numerically. The existence of the detuning parameters leads to the retraction of the revivals for the three atomic systems. On the other hand, the presence of the Kerr medium is conducive to increasing the regularity and periodicity of the collapse–revival phenomenon for the one- and two-mode systems, while chaotic behaviour occurs for the three-mode system.

A deformed model for N-type four-level atom and a single mode field system in the presence of the Kerr medium

N. H. Abdel-Wahab, S. Abdel‐Khalek, Eied Mahmoud Khalil +2 more

Abstract The aim of this paper is to study the interaction between a single mode field and four-level atom in N - configuration under nonlinear medium effect. The non-resonance case and the deformation forms in the coupling interaction between the field and the atom are included. The wave function of the proposed system is obtained when the atom is prepared initially in its excited state while the field is prepared in a coherent state. The effect of the deformation and nonlinear medium on the temporal behavior of collapse-revival, field entropy and geometric phase of the system are examined. The results show that the presence of the intensity of the coupling interaction and the non-linear medium have an important influence on the properties of these phenomena.

MOVING FOUR-LEVEL ATOM INTERACTING WITH A SINGLE-MODE FIELD WITH INTENSITY DEPENDENT COUPLING

R. A. Zait

We study the interaction of a moving four-level atom with a single mode cavity field. Involving intensity dependent coupling, the atom-field wave function and the reduced density matrix of the field are obtained when the atom is initially prepared in a coherent superposition of the upper and ground states and the field is initially in a coherent state. The influence of the intensity dependent atom-field coupling and of the detuning on the collapse and revival phenomenon of the time evolution of statistical aspects, such as the mean photon number, the second-order correlation function of the field, the momentum increment and momentum diffusion, are investigated. It is found that, for the nonresonant case, the detuning between the field and the atom has a significant influence which leads to increasing the collapse time with decreasing amplitude. Numerical computations and discussion of the results are presented.

N-ORDER SQUEEZING AND POISSONIAN STATISTICS OF A FOUR-LEVEL W-TYPE ATOM INTERACTING WITH ONE-MODE CAVITY FIELD

N. H. Abdel-Wahab

In this paper we consider a four-level W-type atom interacting with a single-mode quantized electromagnetic field in the presence of the Kerr medium. The atom and the field are initially prepared in the excited state and coherent state, respectively. The influence of the Kerr medium on the N-order squeezing and Poissonian statistics is investigated. We found that the maximum value of squeezing decreases by increasing the order N. Also, we noticed that the Kerr-like medium decreases the amount of squeezing and increases the sub-Poissonian statistics.

Four-level double V-type atomic system solved by virtue of supersymmetric unitary transformation

N. H. Abd El-Wahab, R. A. Zait

We consider a four-level double V-type atom with two closely-separated top levels and two closely-separated lower levels interacting with a single mode field via multi-photon processes and in the presence of Kerr medium. We show that this atomic system possesses supersymmetric structure and construct its supersymmetric generators. We diagonalize the Hamiltonian of this system using supersymmetric unitary transformation and obtain the corresponding eigenstates and eigenvalues. The atom–field wave functions are obtained when the atom and the field mode are initially in two different cases. The evolution of both the quasi-probability distribution Q-function and the Mandel Q-parameter of the field are studied when the input field is in a coherent state. The influence of the Kerr medium and the detuning parameters on the behavior of these quantum effects is analyzed. The results show that they play a prominent role on the Poissonian statistics of the field. Also, the Kerr medium changes the behavior of the quasi-probability distribution Q-function. We end with discussion and conclusions.

Four-level atom via intensity dependent atom-field coupling

Nour Zidan

We study the interaction of a four level-atom with a single mode in a cavity, involving intensity dependent coupling with additional a kirr-like medium. The wave function is obtained when the atom is initially in superposition of its upper and ground states and the field in coherent state. We evaluate the Mandel Q parameter, phase probability distribution and the field entropy. The influence of the Kerr medium, the detuning and the presence of the intensity dependent coupling on their evolution was discussed.
