On the spectrum of a two-level system

Marek Kuś

Published Nov 1, 1985• 63 citations
Publisher

Abstract

Doubly degenerate energy levels of the two level atom interacting with a single mode of the electromagnetic field are exactly calculated. The dependence of the number of such levels on the values of the level separation energy and a coupling constant is determined. Some general conclusions about the spectrum are drawn.

Statistical Properties of the Spectrum of the Two-Level System

Marek Kuś

Several statistical properties of the energy levels of a two-level atom interacting with one mode of quantized electromagnetic field are investigated in connection with possible "quantum-chaotic" behavior of the system.

Eigenstates of two-level systems in a single-mode quantum field: from quantum Rabi model to N -atom Dicke model in the Coulomb gauge

A. U. Leonau, N. Q. San, Alexander P. Ulyanenkov +2 more

Abstract In the present paper we show that the Hamiltonian describing the resonant interaction of N two-level systems with a single-mode electromagnetic quantum field in the Coulomb gauge can be diagonalized with a high degree of accuracy using a simple basis set of states. This allows one to find an analytical approximation for the eigenvectors and eigenvalues of the system, which interpolates the numerical solution in a broad range of the coupling constant values. For the first time, we show that the energy spectrum of Dicke model (DM) as a function of N (with N ≫ 1 ) satisfies the simple scaling relation. In addition, the introduced basis states provide a regular way of calculating the corrections and estimating the convergence to the exact numerical solution. Analytical approximations and numerical results describing the energy spectrum are valid for both quantum Rabi model ( N = 1) and DM for N ⩾ 2 atoms.

Isotropic-coupled oscillators interacting with a single atom via two-photon processes: quantum information aspects

M. Sebawe Abdalla, A.‐S. F. Obada, Mahmoud Abdel‐Aty

In the present paper we consider a nonlinear interaction between two electromagnetic field modes and a two-level atom. A new Hamiltonian model is introduced to represent such an interaction, where three coupling parameters are involved. We assume that the two-level atom interacts with each mode separately as well as with the two modes nonlinearly. Thus degenerate and non-degenerate processes are considered. Using a suitable canonical transformation and integrability condition the system is reduced to a single mode case. The density matrix is calculated and used to study the photon distribution, the atomic occupation probabilities, the von Neumann entropy and the entropy squeezing.

The general formalism for a three-level atom interacting with a two-mode cavity field

N. H. Abdel-Wahab

We study the interaction between a three-level atom and a two modes electromagnetic field. The atomic levels are coupled by the multiphotons transitions, the coupling constants between the field and atomic levels are considered to be intensity dependent and the Kerr medium is taken into account. We obtained the constants of motion and the wave function when the atom is given in an arbitrary initial state. We calculate a number of statistical aspects of a theoretically considered model.
