A system of a three-level atom interacting with single mode cavity field through multi-photon transition in the presence of a Kerr-like medium is proposed, and its pseudo-invariant eigen-operator (PIEO) and energy-level gap are presented under one-order approximation.
We study the dynamics and quantum characteristics of a single two-level atom interacting with a single mode cavity field undergoing a multi-photon processes in the presence of a nonlinear Kerr-like medium. The wavefunctions of the multi-photon system are obtained when the atom starts in the excited and in the ground state. The atomic inversion, the squeezing of the radiation field and the quasiprobability distribution Q-function of the field are discussed. Numerical results for these characteristics are presented when the atom starts in the excited state and the field mode in a coherent state. The influence of the presence and absence of the number operator and the Kerr medium for the one- and two-photon processes on the evolution of these characteristics are analyzed.
We study the interaction between a moving three-level lambda rubidium atom and a single mode cavity field in the presence of Kerr-like medium. We derive the basic equations of motion for atomic system and show that it is exactly solvable in the rotating wave approximation (RWA). The momentum increment, the momentum diffusion and the Mandel Q parameter of this system are studied. We investigate numerically the influence of Kerr-Like medium on the evolution of the previous statistical properties in the exact resonate and nonresonate case where the atom is initially prepared in a momentum eigenstate and the field in the squeezed state. It is found that the Kerr medium has an important effect on their evolution. Finally, conclusion and discussion are given.
The cavity field spectrum of a cascade three-level atom interacting with single-mode field with Kerr-like medium in the cavity is investigated. The numerical results for the initial field in pure number state, coherent state and squeezed vacuum state are calculated, respectively. It is found that the Kerr-like medium affects the spectral structure even though the initial field is in vacuum when the atom is in upper level. In the case of strong input field, the number state spectrum shows two peaks with different heights; and the superposition state spectrum shows a multi-peak structure with an equal distance of two neighboring peaks. The spectral ``central frequency" shifts away from the resonant frequency with the increasing of average photon number.
