Abstract
Through studying the interaction between a two_level atom and a single mode emission field in rotating_wave approximations of Jaynes_Cummings Model, the atom and the field are in a coupled superposition state_entangled state is obtained. The expectation value of atom dipole moment is always zero, but the fluctuation of dipole moment is a constant, but not zero. Therefore it is concluded that the spontaneous emission of atoms is caused by the fluctuation of dipole moment, not by the dipole moment oscillation of the atomic system. The property of the entanglement is also studied and it is obtained that information entropy and the amount of entanglement are oscillating with time_evolution periodically and are related with the coupling coefficient and detuning. The quantum state changes between disentangled state and entangled state. The quantum state will be entangled state for a long time when the detuning is small.
