Abstract

A study of multiatom effects, i.e., dipole-dipole interactions and phase-interrupting collisions between atoms in the Jaynes-Cummings model, is presented here. For this purpose we consider two identical two-level atoms interacting with a single-mode field in a lossless cavity and study the effect of the dipole-dipole interaction between these two atoms on the collapse-and-revival phenomenon of Rabi oscillations by calculating the analytical expression of the excitation probability in the coherent field. We also consider another situation in which a single atom interacting with a single-mode field in a damped cavity undergoes phase-interrupting collisions. The effect of phase-interrupting collisions along with the usual cavity damping on the collapse-and-revival phenomenon has been explicitly calculated using the dressed-atom approach under the secular approximation.

Theoretical aspects of the quantum electrodynamics of two-level atoms in high-Q cavities

Amitabh Joshi, S. V. Lawande

The Jaynes-Cummings model provides a useful means of studying several quantum electrodynamic effects in matter-radiation interaction. One such effect is the phenomenon of collapses and revivals of Rabi oscillations. Various aspects of this phenomenon are studied in terms of the dynamical evolution of the atom as well as the statistical properties of the field. In particular, the sensitivity of collapses and revivals on the initial photon statistics, the cavity field damping mechanism is highlighted. For this purpose the basic model of Jaynes and Cummings has been extended and modified. Some multiatom effects are also discussed.

Effects of Dipole Interaction on the Collapse-revival Phenomenon of Rabi Oscillations

Amitabh Joshi, S. V. Lawande

The sensitivity of the collapse-revival phenomenon of Rabi oscillations of two identical atoms to dipole-dipole interaction is brought out by deriving the analytical expression of the excitation probability of two interacting atoms in a coherent field. We study this effect in a two-photon model in which the time evolution is exactly periodic.

Jaynes-Cummings Model with Damping Involving Nonlinear Interaction with Reservoir

Amitabh Joshi, S. V. Lawande

We have presented the exact solution of the density matrix equation under the dressed-atom approximation for an isolated atom interacting with a single mode of cavity which has non-zero damping via a nonlinear interaction with reservoir. These solutions are then used to study the phenomenon of collapses and revivals of Rabi oscillations in the atom.

Collapse and revival phenomena in the Jaynes-Cummings model with cavity damping

Ravinder Rupchand Puri, G. S. Agarwal

The density-matrix equation for a single atom interacting with a single mode of a cavity with finite Q is solved for the time dependence of various physical quantities using the dressed-atom approximation. The effect of the cavity damping on the collapse and revival phenomena and on the photon statistics is studied in detail.

Damping, field–field correlation and dipole–dipole interaction effects on the entanglement and atomic inversion dynamics

N. Rustaee, Mohammad Kazem Tavassoly, Roohollah Daneshmand

In this paper we study the interaction between two two-level atoms with a two-mode quantized field in the presence of damping. Dipole–dipole interaction between the two atoms and the correlation between the two modes of field are also taken into account. To solve the model, using appropriate transformations, we reduce the considered model to a well-known Jaynes–Cummings model. After finding the analytical solution for the atom–field system, the effects of damping, field–field correlation and atomic dipole–dipole interaction on the entanglement between atoms and population inversion are investigated, numerically. It is observed that the dynamical behavior of the degree of entanglement for damped systems, in relatively large domains of time, takes a low but constant value adequately far from the beginning of the interaction. In addition, it is found that the value of population inversion after the initial oscillations takes negative values for damped systems and eventually vanishes by increasing time. Also, it is seen that simultaneous presence of both dipole–dipole interaction and field–field correlation provides typical collapse–revival phenomenon in the time-behavior of atomic inversion.

Jaynes-Cummings model with atomic position distribution

Alessandro Vaglica

The position as well as the width of the atomic wave packet passing through an optical cavity may affect the matter-field interaction. As a result, the internal dynamics of a two-level atom, such as the Rabi oscillations or the collapse and revival phenomenon, may be strongly modified with respect to the standard Jaynes-Cummings model. In particular, for a sufficiently large spread of the atomic position, the atomic population inversion displays the characteristic ringing behavior of the Bessel function ${\mathit{J}}_{0}$ differently from the usual full Rabi oscillation.
