EXACT THEORY OF SPONTANEOUS EMISSION OF TWO LEVEL ATOM IN ONE-DIMENSIONAL CAVITY
Vladislav Cheltsov
Abstract
The exact theory of the spontaneous emission of a motionless two level atom in a one-dimensional cavity at zero temperature is presented. In the damped cavity case, using the theory of quasistationary systems and a novel algorithm in operating casual ζ-functions, the theory predicts a hidden-triplet form of emission spectrum which turns abruptly to a singlet when the cavity passive linewidth Γ c /2 becoming equal to twice the coupling constant.
