Relaxation of a three-level atom in stochastic fields and its spectroscopic properties

Abstract

Relaxation of a motionless three-level atom with a non-equidistant spectrum in a photon heat bath and an external stochastic field is investigated. In the Markovian approximation of the relaxation processes a master equation for the reduced density matrix is derived by making use of the averaging over realizations of the stochastic field. The master equation is solved exactly. The correlation functions, the shapes of the radiation lines, the intensity correlation and photon number spectrums are calculated for the V, Ξ and Λ atoms and realizations of the stochastic field by a delta-correlated and a Kubo-Anderson processes.

Relaxation of a three-level atom interacting with a thermostat and an external stochastic field

Victor A. Mikhailov, Nikolay V. Troshkin

Relaxation of a three-level atom with non-equidistant spectrum interacting with a thermostat and an external stochastic field is studied. The master equation for the reduced density matrix and its solution in the first order of the perturbation theory are obtained. Using quantum regression theorem, explicit formulas for two-time correlation functions and shapes of radiation lines are derived for all types of three-level atoms and the following stochastic processes: a delta-correlated process and a Kubo-Anderson process. The influence of stochastic perturbations of atom’s energy levels and damping constants of adjacent transitions on width of radiation lines is shown.

Master equation averaged over stochastic process realizations for the description of a three-level atom relaxation

V. Mikhailov, Nikolay V. Troshkin

The relaxation of a three-level atom interacting with a photon heat bath and an external stochastic field is investigated. For the reduced density matrix, a master equation averaged over stochastic process realizations is derived. An exact solution is obtained and the radiation line shapes are calculated.

Non-Markovian dephasing of two-level resonance fluorescence in a strong radiation field

Zhifang Deng, Shaul Mukamel

A non-Markovian microscopic theory for the spontaneous emission spectrum of a two-level atom driven by a strong laser field and undergoing dephasing via the interaction with a thermal bath is developed. The present theory is valid for an arbitrary correlation time scale of the bath relative to the linewidth and interpolates from the Markovian to the static limits. Model calculations using the stochastic line-shape function of Kubo show how the characteristic triplet spectrum is modified by the interaction with the bath. The present results generalize our previous studies of resonance Raman scattering in a three-level system in a strong radiation field.

Stochastic theory of relaxation and collisional broadening of spectral line shapes

Karim Faid

A complete stochastic theory of relaxation is developed in terms of a homogeneous equation for the averaged density matrix of a system immersed in a thermal bath.\nThis theory is then used as the basis of a new stochastic approach to the phenomenon of collisional broadening of spectral line shapes. Single photon and multiphoton processes are studied.\nThe features of a line shape are linked by simple expressions to the statistical properties of a stochastic hermitian Hamiltonian. The ordinary line shape predicted by Kubo's approach is generalized. The present approach predicts broadening as well as asymmetry and shift. A representation of line shapes in multiphoton processes by diagrams is also developed.

Creation and destruction of the coherence for quantum systems in regular and stochastic fields

Alexander V. Gorokhov

The problem of the coherent states generation with definite parameters for multilevel quantum systems is investigated. The interaction with external environment and stochastic fields can destroy of the coherence. The competition of these processes is considered on a base of Fokker - Planck Equations approach, deriving from master equation for the density matrix of the system. Examples of the coherent states dynamics for two-level atoms in an external stochastic field in the nonideal resonator are considered. Average over the realizations of stochastic fields is performed for the case of white gaussian noise and Kubo - Anderson process. Explicit formulas for transition probabilities, longitudinal and transversal relaxation times and shape of radiation line are obtained.
