Multiphoton interaction or squeezed light with a phased atom

Abstract

Evolution of the squeezed state in a multiphoton Jaynes–Cummings model (JCM) when the field is interacting with an atom prepared initially in a coherent superposition of the ground state and the excited state is studied. Long time and short time evolution of field statistics are discussed and compared with the standard JCM. These properties are found to be sensitive to the initial phase of the atom. For a phased atom, squeezing at later times can be larger than the initial squeezing. It is found that two-photon interaction of a suitably prepared phased atom with the initial vacuum state can yield 45% squeezing below the vacuum noise limit. Multiphoton interaction of a phased atom with the initial vacuum state of the field leads periodically to a pure field state that is a coherent superposition of the vacuum state and the n-photon Fock state.

Multiphoton model for the interaction of single-mode squeezed-state light with a two-level atom

Shaozheng Jin

Multiphoton interaction of single-mode squeezed-state light and a two-level atom is considered based on the K-photon Jaynes–Cummings model. Time evolution of quantum fluctuation and photon statistical properties of the initial squeezing light are discussed. It is found that through interaction with a two-level atom, larger squeezing levels cannot be achieved in one-photon or multiphoton processes. For photon antibunching behavior of the light field, it is shown that a smaller initial squeezing level and an appropriately larger coherent part of the initial average photon number of the radiation field favor the generation of this nonclassical behavior, especially in the lower-order interaction processes.

k-photon Jaynes-Cummings model with coherent atomic preparation: Squeezing and coherence

W. Vogel, D.‐G. Welsch

The k-photon Jaynes-Cummings model is studied with respect to the properties of the radiation mode. In particular, the generation of coherence and squeezing in the one- and two-photon model is examined for the case that the field is initially in the vacuum state and the atom is prepared in a coherent superposition of states. Coherence is found in the one-photon model, and squeezing appears in both the one- and the two-photon model, the maximum noise reduction being 25% and 45%, respectively. In the one-photon model coherent squeezed radiation is generated, whereas the two-photon model yields a squeezed vacuum. For an initial atomic preparation close to the ground state, this squeezed vacuum may be interpreted as the result of two-photon interaction between the quantized cavity field and a classical atomic current.

Interaction of Squeezed Light with Two-level Atoms

H. M. Moya-Cessa, A. Vidiella-Barranco

We investigate some of the fundamental features of the interaction of squeezed light with two-level atoms in the framework of the Jaynes-Cummings model. We start our analysis by calculating the collapses and revivals of the atomic inversion. We discuss the degree of purity of the field (given by the entropy) and its disentanglement from the atomic source. The connection with the evolution of the Q-function is also made. We notice that contrary to the coherent state case, the field turns into a nearly pure (squeezed) state at the revival time as if the field was prepared in a coherent state. The field also becomes a superposition of squeezed states at half of the revival time, and this is confirmed by investigating the photon number distribution. The phase properties of the field are discussed using the Pegg-Barnett formalism.

The N th-power squeezing of field amplitude in the vacuum state multiphoton Jaynes-Cummings model

Chuan‐Kui Wang

The properties of the N th- power squeezing of field amplitude in the k- photon Jaynes-Cummings model of an atom initially in atomic coherent state coupling with vacuum field are investigated in this paper. The results show that the field exhibit not only the N = k th-power squeezing of the amplitude but also the N = (k/2) th-power squeezing when k is even.

The amplitude- N -th powered squeezing of an electromagnetic field in the multiphoton Jaynes-Cummings model interacting with the superposition state

We have studied the properties of the amplitude- N -th powered squeezing of an electromagnetic field in the k -photon Jaynes-Cummings model of an atom initially being in the ground state and coupling with the superposition state. The results show that, under the condition of n ⩾ k , where n is the photon number of the superposition state, the field exhibits not only the amplitude- N = n -th powered squeezing but also the amplitude- N = ( n /2)-th powered squeezing for even n . The variations of the amplitude- N -th powered squeezing of the field with the powers N and k are discussed.

Anti-Jaynes-Cummings interaction of a two-level atom with squeezed light: A comparison with the Jaynes-Cummings interaction

Christopher Mayero, Joseph Akeyo Omolo

We considered the anti-Jaynes-Cummings (AJC) interaction of a two-level atom in an initial ground state interacting with a field mode in an initial squeezed coherent state at arbitrary values of squeeze parameter r and provided the Jaynes-Cummings (JC) interaction as a comparison. We analysed the degree of entanglement (DEM) measured by the von Neumann entropy and the nature of the field quantified by the Mandel Q parameter in relation to the atomic population inversion during the AJC interaction and separately the corresponding JC interaction. We noted in our examples that at r>1.4, photon statistics evolved to super-Poissonian from sub-Poissonian during the respective AJC, JC interactions. Further, for high values of r, the form of the time evolution of atomic population inversion depicted enhanced ringing revivals at the collapse region in comparison to the case of an initial coherent state. What is more, at higher values of r the time evolution of DEM showed more rapid oscillations and recorded higher values, concurrently, an increase in the degree of mixedness.
