Controllable sidebands of resonance fluorescence of a two-level system driven by bichromatic field

Yiying Yan, Zhiguo Lü, JunYan Luo +1 more

Abstract Strong polychromatic driving reshapes characteristics of the resonance fluorescence spectrum of a two-level system. Employing bichromatic driving feild with a low beat-frequency smaller than the emission rate of the system we demonstrate the exotic features of the fluorescence spectrum calculated by the numerical Floquet-Liouville approach and analytical method. It is found that fluorescence spectrum possesses two broadened sidebands in the place of the Rabi sidebands under certain conditions. Moreover, the heights and widths of the sidebands can be controlled by tuning the driving parameters. The properties of the spectrum is determined by the transitions between the Floquet states in a rotating frame. The broadened sidebands result from the quasi-continuous quasienergy spectrum which happens with steering the beat frequency lower. The present study provides insights into the Floquet engineering of the fluorescence spectral features with polychromatic excitation fields.

Floquet-Resolved Dissipation Selects Entanglement Beyond Population Spectroscopy

Gianluigi Pacino, Rosario Nicosia, Alessandro Ridolfo

Reliable quantum-state engineering in periodically driven devices requires more than reproducing their excitation spectrum: the environment must resolve the transitions of the driven system. We show that two dissipative descriptions of the same parametrically coupled qubits can yield closely similar period-averaged populations yet qualitatively different asymptotic entanglement. Both retain the complete periodically driven Hamiltonian, the same microscopic bath couplings, and the same physical observables; they differ in the dynamical representation used to resolve the dissipative channels and the corresponding system operators: the static dressed basis in the partial harmonic decomposition approach (PHDA) and the Floquet basis, including all relevant drive sidebands, in Floquet-Born-Markov (FBM) theory. The population maps preserve the same resonance skeleton and remain closely similar over broad low-to-moderate drive regions, while clearer differences emerge as the modulation becomes stronger. Phase-resolved single- and two-qubit coherence observables reveal a substantially stronger redistribution of amplitudes and phases. Concurrence amplifies this hidden state-level discrepancy: Floquet-resolved dissipation selects stronger and more extended Bell-like entangled regions and a larger overlap with a fixed Bell-like reference, while PHDA generally underestimates the entanglement and its thermal persistence. A channel-resolution test verifies the secular, completely positive FBM construction throughout the relevant parameter domain. Our results establish population agreement as an insufficient benchmark for open Floquet quantum-state engineering and identify coherence-sensitive observables as the decisive validation test.

Controlling Floquet states on ultrashort time scales

Matteo Lucchini, Fabio Medeghini, Yingxuan Wu +10 more

The advent of ultrafast laser science offers the unique opportunity to combine Floquet engineering with extreme time resolution, further pushing the optical control of matter into the petahertz domain. However, what is the shortest driving pulse for which Floquet states can be realised remains an unsolved matter, thus limiting the application of Floquet theory to pulses composed by many optical cycles. Here we ionized Ne atoms with few-femtosecond pulses of selected time duration and show that a Floquet state can be observed already with a driving field that lasts for only 10 cycles. For shorter pulses, down to 2 cycles, the finite lifetime of the driven state can still be explained using an analytical model based on Floquet theory. By demonstrating that the amplitude and number of Floquet-like sidebands in the photoelectron spectrum can be controlled not only with the driving laser pulse intensity and frequency, but also by its duration, our results add a new lever to the toolbox of Floquet engineering.
