Abstract
Exact analytical results are derived for the coupled system of nondissipative single mode quantized harmonic oscillator (HO) and arbitrary pulse shape. Specifically, for a sin2-pulse shape, the transient fluorescent spectrum is obtained in the general case of initial coherent state |α〉 of the HO. The dominant central Lorentzian is surrounded by weak oscillations due to the larger number of sequential pulses which get amplified asymmetrically in the nonresonant case as a result of balancing and interference processes between the initial excitation (|α2|) and the strength of the exciting pulse. Further pronounced oscillations is noticed with "hole burning" structure in the central peak due to nonzero phase of the initial amplitude (α).
