Abstract

We investigate the phenomena of single-mode and two-mode squeezing for a three-level atom and two modes. The field modes are initially taken in coherent states. The effects of detuning on these phenomena are studied for one-photon and two-photon interactions. The relation between the collapse and revival phenomena and single-mode and two-mode squeezing is shown. It is found that the two-mode squeezing is much more effective than the single-mode squeezing for the one-photon interaction. While for the two-photon interaction the reverse is true.

INFLUENCE OF DETUNING ON THE INTERACTION OF A FOUR-LEVEL ATOM WITH TWO-MODE CAVITY FIELD

N. H. Abdel-Wahab

The atomic system on which we focus is a single four-level atom interacting with two-mode cavity fields. We obtain the wavefunction when the atom is initially in an excited state. The result presented in this context is employed to discuss the collapses–revivals phenomenon, the photon statistics and frequency sum squeezing phenomenon. The influence of the detuning on these phenomena are investigated for two four-level atomic systems. We found that the presence of the detuning leads to an increase of the collapse time while the amount of squeezing decreases. Also, the photon statistics is affected by the existence of the detuning parameters where the anti-bunching effect appears.

Two-mode squeezing of cavity fields

Zhengdong Liu, Xiao-Lin Li, D. L. Lin +1 more

Two-mode squeezing of a cavity field interacting with a three-level \ensuremath{\Lambda}-type atom is found for a field initially in a coherent state. Some phenomena are revealed, such as two-mode squeezing weaker than single-mode squeezing due to the mode coupling, and periodic recovery of squeezed states caused by two-photon processes.

Dipole amplitude-squared squeezing of a ■-type three-level atom

Bing Shi

The atomic dipole amplitude-squared squeezing effects of a Ξ-type three-level atom interacting with two-mode entangled coherent states are investigated.The effects of the degree of entanglement of the two-mode entangled coherent states,the ground state probability amplitude of the atomic initial state,the detuning,the mean photon number and the atom-field coupling constant on the atomic dipole amplitude-squared squeezing are analyzed.The results indicate that the light squeezing effects depend on the degree of entanglement of the two-mode entangled coherent optical fields,the detuning,the mean photon numbers,the atom-field coupling constant and the atomic initial state.

Dipole Squeezing Effects of a A-type Three-level Atom Interacting with a Two-mode Coherent Field in a Kerr-like Medium

Lihui Zhang

The dipole squeezing effects of a A-type three-level atom interacting with a two-mode coherent field are investigated. Through the numerical calculations, the influences of the Kerr effect and the one-photon frequency detuning on the atomic dipole squeezing are also discussed. It is shown that the atomic dipole squeezing reduces up to disappearence and that the time of the squeezing becomes short with increasing the Kerr effect, but that the atomic dipole squeezing raises and that the time of the squeezing becomes long with increasing the one-photon frequency detuning .

N-level atom andN-1modes: Statistical aspects and interaction with squeezed light

A.M. Abdel-Hafez, A.‐S. F. Obada, Mahmoud Ahmad

A model is presented to investigate the problem of interaction between an N-level atom and N-1 modes of the field. The model includes detuning. Constants of motion are obtained. The evolution operator is calculated, and the probability distribution function for the photon numbers is computed for different initial atomic states. The characteristic functions are computed. Different statistical quantities concerning the photons or the atomic system are given. The case of a three-level atom and two modes is considered for its different configurations. The phenomenon of collapses and revivals is discussed for squeezed light, and the effect of squeezing is shown in this phenomenon.

Atomic Dipole Squeezing Effects in the System of the Two-mode Entangled Coherent States Interacting with a Σ-Type Three-level Atom

Zhuo‐Liang Cao

The atomic dipole squeezing effects in the system of a two-mode entangled states interacting with a Σ-type three-level atom were studied.We analyzed the effects of the degree of entanglement of the two-mode entangled coherent states,the ground state probability amplitude of atomic initial state,the detuning,and the mean photon numbers on the atomic dipole squeezing effects.The results indicate that the influence of the(degree) of entanglement of the two-mode entangled coherent states on the atomic dipole squeezing effects isn't noticeable.While the atomic initial state is in the ground state or excited state,the atomic dipole squeezing effects can not occur.While the probability of atomic initial state in ground state is equal to that in the excited state,the atomic dipole squeezing reaches its maximum.The enhancing of the detuning results in the increase of the frequency of atomic dipole squeezing.When the mean photon number of mode 1 remains unchanged and the mean photon number of mode 2 increases,the depth of atomic dipole squeezing decreases and the(frequency) of atomic dipole squeezing doesn't change.
