Generalized Jaynes-Cummings models with a time-dependent atom-field coupling

Abstract

An extension of the standard one-photon as well as the two-photon Jaynes-Cummings (JC) model has been done to include transient effects due to a modulation of the atom-field coupling coefficient. An explicit time dependence is given for the case of a linear sweep of the coupling parameter. We have shown the effects of such a sweep on the dynamical evolution of a two-level atom undergoing a one- or two-photon process in a single nondecaying mode of the field in a coherent state. The statistical aspects of the field, such as intensity-intensity correlation and squeezing, are also investigated and are found to be both qualitatively as well as quantitatively different from the standard JC models.

On the interaction between a time-dependent field and a two-level atom

N. H. Abdel-Wahab, Ahmed Salah

In this paper, we study the interaction between the time-dependent field and a two-level atom with one mode electromagnetic field. We consider that the field of photons is assumed to be coupled with modulated coupling parameter which depends explicitly on time. It is shown that the considered model can be reduced to a well-known form of the time-dependent generalized Jaynes–Cummings model. Under special initial conditions, in which the atom and the field are prepared in the excited and the coherent states, respectively, the explicit time evolution of the wave function of the entire system is analytically obtained. Our proposal has many advantages over the previous optical schemes and can be realized in several multiple experiments, such as trapped ions and quantum electrodynamics cavity. The influence of the time-dependent field parameter on the collapses-revivals, the normal squeezing of the radiation, the anti-bunching of photons and the entanglement phenomena for the considered atomic system is examined. The linear entropy, the von Neumann entropy are used to quantify entanglement in the quantum systems. We noticed that these phenomena are affected by the existence of both the time-dependent coupling field and detuning parameters.

Squeezed states in the two-atom model with intensity-dependent coupling

Eugene K. Bashkirov

Squeezing for one- and two-mode two-atom Jaynes-Cummings model with intensity-dependent coupling has been investigated assuming the field to be initially in the coherent state. The time-dependent squeezing parameters have been calculated. The influence of the intensity of the cavity field and initial atomic state on the squeezing parameters has been analyzed.

Effects of Phase Fluctuations in the Atom-field Coupling Coefficient of the Jaynes-cummings Model

Amitabh Joshi

The Jaynes-Cummings model of a two-level atom interacting with a single quantized mode of radiation field is generalized to include the effects of stochastic phase fluctuations in the atom-field coupling coefficient. The fluctuations are modelled by random telegraph process and an equation for the density operator averaged over the distribution of fluctuations has been obtained. The solution of this equation is used to study the resulting decoherence effects in the dynamical behaviour of the atom and the statistical properties of the field.

A generalized unitary transformation for solving time-independent and time-dependent Jaynes–Cummings models under resonant and selected off-resonance conditions

ANTONINO MESSINA, Hiromichi Nakazato, Antonio S. M. de Castro +4 more

Jaynes–Cummings (JC) models are by far the most widely used to study the dynamics of two-level systems, such as atoms or molecules under suitable conditions, coupled to quantized electromagnetic fields. Nowadays, analytical solutions of JC models are more useful than ever for understanding and controlling radiation-matter interactions relevant to quantum information processing, quantum computing, and other quantum technologies. This study presents the analysis and generalization of a method for the solution of the dynamical problem in the time-independent JC model (Carbonaro et al., 1979) that enables an exact description of the atom-field dynamics in the resonant time-dependent JC model and in a nontrivial class of off-resonance time-dependent JC models. Our analysis produces the ready-to-use forms of the evolution operator in the resonant and non-resonant cases, which are then used to derive the evolution of the atomic population inversion for some types of atom-field coupling. The central idea behind the proposed approach offers opportunities for its extension to other time-dependent cases and its generalization to JC-related models.

Dynamics of a two-mode two-photon Jaynes–Cummings model interacting with correlated SU(1, 1) coherent states

Christopher C. Gerry, Ronald F. Welch

We study the quantum dynamics of a two-mode two-photon Jaynes–Cummings model of a two-level atom interacting with the correlated two-mode SU(1, 1) coherent states. The collapse and revival patterns in this case are noted to be quite different from those in the case of uncorrelated coherent states and correlated pair-coherent states. As an example of the time evolution of the field statistics we show that violation of the Cauchy–Schwartz inequality by the initial field states may be nullified. We also discuss the evolution of the variance of the two-mode field quadrature operator.

The Jaynes-Cummings Model with Modulated Field-atom Coupling in Resonator Quantum Electrodynamics

Sergey V. Prants, L.S. Yacoupova

We extend the standard Jaynes-Cummings model to include transient effects due to a modulation of the atom-field coupling. The exact solution for such a generalized model is found in terms of Bessel functions for the atom-cavity mode interaction modulated by the exponential function. This function is incorporated into the basic Hamiltonian phenomenologically for modelling the processes of adiabatic switching on or switching off the interaction of a two-level atom (at rest) with a quantized mode. The dynamical behaviour of the atomic inversion for such processes is plotted and compared with the atomic dynamics for the standard model. If we take into account that, in micromaser experiments, Rydberg atoms move through a cavity with a spatially inhomogenous field, we deal with the Jaynes-Cummings model with a spatial modulation the form of which is defined by the mode-shape function depending, in turn, on the geometrical form of resonator. In the cases of a rectangular and a spherical cavity the analytical solutions for atomic inversion are found in the explicit form in the weak-coupling limit. We consider in detail the time evolution of the atomic inversion while the atom passes through a rectangular cavity. Contrary to the standard model the initial inversion can be exactly restored during the atomic transit depending on the relation between the detuning, the atomic velocity and the number of half-wavelengths of the chosen mode. The numerical solutions of the basic equations are also obtained and plotted for rectangular and spherical resonators.
