Abstract

The authors employ a recent model studied by Glauber (1991) for particle trapping by oscillating fields and a time-dependent canonical transformation to investigate the generation of squeezing effects for this system.

WAVE FUNCTION OF THE PARTICLE TRAPPED BY OSCILLATING FIELDS

CELIA M. A. DANTAS, Vanderlei Salvador Bagnato, B. Baseia

In a previous paper [Quantum Opt.5, 155 (1993)] we have employed a recent model by Glauber for particle trapping by oscillating fields to investigate the occurrence of the squeezing effect for this system. Here we construct a linear time-dependent invariant which allows us to obtain the wave function of the system. The treatment is general for a class of time-dependent Hamiltonian, the application to our previous work being a particularization of the present procedure.

An important purpose of trapping atoms is to minimize the center of mass motion. This requires an understanding of any fundamental limits on the residual particle motion.

PARTICLE TRAPPING BY OSCILLATING FIELDS: CONNECTING SQUEEZING WITH COOLING

B. Baseia, Reeta Vyas, Vanderlei Salvador Bagnato

The first observation of the squeezing effect outside the optical domain was reported very recently for trapped atoms [D. M. Meekhof et al., Phys. Rev. Lett.76, 1796 (1996)]. Pursuing this line and a sequel of previous works of ours we employ a model by Glauber and a method of invariants by Lewis and Riesenfeld to establish a connection between the squeezing and the cooling effects in the system. From this connection the occurrence of squeezing could be detected through the measurement of the dispersion in the variable [Formula: see text] and of the temperature.

Particle trapping by oscillating fields: influence of dissipation upon instabilities in quantum fluctuations

Employing a dissipative Hamiltonian, which constitutes a modified version of a model by Glauber in the absence of friction, we pursue the study of the influence of dissipation upon the squeezing effect of mechanical motion for a trapped particle in a time-dependent field. Here we investigate in what fashion the presence of dissipation affects the instabilities exhibited by this system.

In a previous paper (ibid. vol.5, p.155, 1993), we studied squeezing of mechanical motion for a particle trapped in oscillating fields. We considered a model proposed by Glauber and time-dependent transformations to show that the system may exhibit quantum fluctuations below the shot noise level. Here we pursue this investigation to discuss the regions of instability, where for a certain range of parameters, variance of quadrature phase amplitudes continues to grow with time.
