Multiphoton model for the interaction of single-mode squeezed-state light with a two-level atom

Abstract

Multiphoton interaction of single-mode squeezed-state light and a two-level atom is considered based on the K-photon Jaynes–Cummings model. Time evolution of quantum fluctuation and photon statistical properties of the initial squeezing light are discussed. It is found that through interaction with a two-level atom, larger squeezing levels cannot be achieved in one-photon or multiphoton processes. For photon antibunching behavior of the light field, it is shown that a smaller initial squeezing level and an appropriately larger coherent part of the initial average photon number of the radiation field favor the generation of this nonclassical behavior, especially in the lower-order interaction processes.

Multiphoton interaction or squeezed light with a phased atom

Changxin Wang, Reeta Vyas

Evolution of the squeezed state in a multiphoton Jaynes–Cummings model (JCM) when the field is interacting with an atom prepared initially in a coherent superposition of the ground state and the excited state is studied. Long time and short time evolution of field statistics are discussed and compared with the standard JCM. These properties are found to be sensitive to the initial phase of the atom. For a phased atom, squeezing at later times can be larger than the initial squeezing. It is found that two-photon interaction of a suitably prepared phased atom with the initial vacuum state can yield 45% squeezing below the vacuum noise limit. Multiphoton interaction of a phased atom with the initial vacuum state of the field leads periodically to a pure field state that is a coherent superposition of the vacuum state and the n-photon Fock state.

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.

Fourth-order squeezing in the multiphoton Jaynes-Cummings model

Fam Le Kien, M. Kozierowski, Tran Quang

Hong and Mandel's concept of higher-order squeezing [Phys. Rev. Lett. 54, 323 (1985); Phys. Rev. A 32, 974 (1985)] is applied to the generalized multiphoton Jaynes-Cummings model of a single two-level atom interacting with an initially coherent cavity-field mode. The fourth-order squeezing is examined. The field is shown to be intrinsically squeezed to this order for the photon multiple m\ensuremath{\ge}4.

Two-photon Jaynes-Cummings model interacting with the squeezed vacuum

Christopher C. Gerry

We consider squeezed light described as an SU(1,1) coherent state interacting with a two-photon Jaynes-Cummings model of a two-level atom. We study the time variation of the mean photon number and also the variance of the field quadratures with particular regard to the squeezing.

Influence of nonlinearity in one-photon processes on the relationship between field and dipole squeezing in the two-level thermal Jaynes-Cummings model

Aranya B. Bhattacherjee

This paper describes the influence of nonlinear interaction of a two-level atom with a single-mode field via one-photon interaction on the squeezing properties of the radiation and the fluctuations of the atomic dipole variables. The thermal Jaynes-Cummings model nonlinear in occupation number is used.

Dynamics of anM-level atom interacting with cavity fields. III. Nonclassical behavior of the initially squeezed field

Fuli Li, Xiao-shen Li, D. L. Lin +1 more

The interaction of an M-level atom with a single mode of a cavity field initially in a squeezed state is investigated in this paper. The time evolution of nonclassical characteristics of the field, such as the field squeezing, antibunching, and sub-Poisson distribution, is computed and discussed in detail. It is found that the initial coherent excitation strength has crucial influence on how such nonclassical behavior can be maintained in the propagation of squeezed light.
