Danamics Properties of a Single Atom Embedded in Photonic Crystal
Hailian Liu
Abstract
The dynamical properties and spectrum characteristics of a-type atom with an external field embedded in threedimensional photonic crystals are investigated.With the help of numerical calculation and theoretical analysis,we find that the populations of the upper and lower levels will display periodic oscillation,and the frequency and amplitude of the oscillation will be greatly affected by the intensity of the external-driving field,the detuning.The spontaneous emission of the atom will be apparently influenced by the relative position of the upper level from the forbidden gap.
