Dissipative Quantum Dynamics in Cavity Quantum Electrodynamics

H. Jeff. Kimble, G. Rempe, R. J. Thompson +1 more

Of fundamental importance in quantum optics has been the investigation of the radiative coupling of a collection of atoms to the field of a resonant cavity1. Within this context we are conducting a research program to investigate the interaction of optically prepared two-state atoms with the fields of high finesse optical cavities. With regard to our specific observations, we have employed a sodium atomic beam apparatus to make direct spectroscopic measurements of the normal-mode splitting for the coupled oscillator system formed by the collective atomic polarization of N two-state atoms and a single mode of a resonator of finesse of approximately 2x10⁴. At the transition wavelength of 589 nm (³, S_(1/2), F = 2, m_F = 2→3 P_(3/2), m_F = 3 and for one of our spherical mirror standing-wave cavities, the relevant parameters for the system are as follows: transverse atomic decay rate γ_⊥ = 2πX5X10⁶/S, cavity damping rate K/γ⊥= 0.18, and single-atom coupling coefficient g/γ_⊥ = 0.2.

Driven-dissipative quantum dynamics in ultra-long-lived dipoles in an optical cavity

Diego Barberena, Robert J. Lewis-Swan, James K. Thompson +1 more

We study the quantum dynamics of many-body arrays of two-level atoms in a driven cavity subject to collective decay and interactions mediated by the cavity field. We work in the bad cavity limit accessible, for example, using long-lived electronic clock states of alkaline-earth atoms, for which the bare atomic linewidth is much less than the cavity linewidth. In the absence of interactions, our system reduces to previously studied models of collective fluorescence. We show that while interactions do not qualitatively change the steady-state properties they lead to a drastic change in the dynamical properties. We find that, for some intervals of driving strengths, the system shows two very distinct types of transient behaviors that depend on the initial state of the system. In particular, there is a parameter regime where the system features oscillatory dynamics with a period of oscillation that becomes much shorter than the duration of the overall transient dynamics as the atom number increases. We use both mean-field and exact numerical calculations of the quantum system to investigate the dynamics.

Finite-Qcavity electrodynamics: Dynamical and statistical aspects

Ravinder Rupchand Puri, G. S. Agarwal

Solutions of the basic equations of a simplified model of the cavity quantum electrodynamics are presented under the condition that the single-photon Rabi frequency is much larger than the cavity decay rate. Such solutions are used to calculate the quantum-statistical properties of the field and atomic observables under a variety of initial conditions involving the states of the field and atom. Effects of increasing cavity damping and of the addition of thermal photons on collapse and revival phenomena are discussed. Phase-sensitive aspects of the cavity field are also treated. Quantum effects are shown to be most easily isolated by sending an atom initially prepared in a dressed state for such a state does not evolve further under the influence of a classical field. The appearance of squeezing in the cavity field is demonstrated. The squeezing is most prominent for a coherently prepared atom passing through an empty cavity. The quantum features of the complex dipole moment and their detectability are also discussed in detail.
