The effect of the specific anisotropy of the environment on the dynamics of a resonantly fluorescing atom is analyzed in a one-dimensional model. The environmental anisotropy, which is manifested as different spectral selectivities of the absorption of spontaneous photons emitted by the atom in different directions, results in the anisotropy of the photon emission rate giving rise to a nonzero recoil force on the atom. The effect under optimal conditions can reach one-quarter of the recoil momentum per single photon emission. This force is directed toward the weaker spectral selectivity.

Cooperative spontaneous emission of a single photon from a cloud of N atoms modifies substantially the radiation pressure
exerted by a far-detuned laser beam exciting the atoms. On one hand, the force induced by photon absorption depends on the
collective decay rate of the excited atomic state. On the other hand, directional spontaneous emission counteracts the recoil
induced by the absorption. We derive an analytical expression for the radiation pressure in steady-state. For a smooth extended
atomic distribution we show that the radiation pressure depends on the atom number via cooperative scattering and that, for
certain atom numbers, it can be suppressed or enhanced. Cooperative scattering of light by extended atomic clouds can become
important in the presence of quasi-resonant light and could be addressed in many cold atoms experiments. 相似文献

A systematic shift of the photon recoil momentum due to the index of refraction of a dilute gas of atoms has been observed. The recoil frequency was determined with a two-pulse light grating interferometer using near-resonant laser light. The results show that the recoil momentum of atoms caused by the absorption of a photon is n variant Planck's k, where n is the index of refraction of the gas and k is the vacuum wave vector of the photon. This systematic effect must be accounted for in high-precision atom interferometry with light gratings. 相似文献

本文研究了初始处于激发态的两能级原子在左手材料附近运动时Casimir-Polder力对原子动力学的影响. 左手材料有两个的作用: 一是在距离界面波长区域内提供了较强的Casimir-Polder共振力, 二是在这一范围原子的自发辐射受到抑制, 延长了作用时间. 这两种效应使得依靠原子自发辐射这一过程中的Casimir-Polder力能对原子的运动学产生影响, 并将一定初速度的原子排斥远离界面. 由于原子偶极矩的取向会影响Casimir-Polder力的性质, 因此对于某些初始条件(初速度和初始位置), 不同偶极矩取向的原子有不同的运动学结果, 会被吸引到界面或反射出去, 从而对具有不同偶极矩方向的原子进行筛选. 当然由于Casimir-Polder力很小, 能够反射的初速度也很小, 但是已经可以反抗极低温的热涨落, 我们的理论预估值约为15 μupK. 如果和其他约束手段同时作用, 便能对原子的动力学产生更为有利的控制. 相似文献

It is shown that spectral filtration of a significant fraction of radiation of a resonantly fluorescing atom changes its kinetics. The effect of a spectral observation event on the behavior of an atom is demonstrated by two examples: localization of an atom at its flight through a region occupied by a standing light wave and translatory dynamics of an atom at its motion along a standing light wave. In the first case, localization probabilities are calculated in the absence of spontaneous emission events and for one photoemission event. The arising distribution over the atomic momentum, which is sensitive to spectral filtration, is also calculated for one photoemission event. In the second example, it is shown that spectral filtration of spontaneous emission leads to the occurrence of an anomalous additive to the force acting on an atom in the standing-wave field. 相似文献

利用光子的闭合轨道理论,我们研究了原子在两个平行镜面间两层电介质板(折射率分别为n1,n2)中的自发辐射率. 自发辐射率呈现出多周期的振荡结构。自发辐射率的傅立叶变换中的每一个峰和光子从原子出发到返回原子的一条闭合轨道相对应。结果表明自发辐射率和两层电介质的宽度和折射率有关。和只有一层电介质的辐射率比较,当两层电介质的折射率n1 和 n2 差别很小时, 两层电介质之间分界面的反射效应可以忽略;但是当二者的差别很大时,发射效应变得非常重要且自发辐射率中的振荡减弱。本文的结果为原子在不同电介质间的自发辐射率的研究提供了新的理解。 相似文献

It is found that the spectral characteristics of relativistic electrons moving in the field of a terawatt laser and through static transverse fields differ significantly. It is shown that, as applied to studying the nonlinear generation of higher harmonics and quantum recoil and spin effects upon hard photon emission, the Ba $\overset{\lower0.5em\hbox{$\overset{\lower0.5em\hbox{ er-Katkov method has advantages over other methods. Numerical data for the efficiency of hard photon generation in the field of terawatt lasers and in oriented crystals are reported. 相似文献

We study stimulated emission from an excited two-level atom coupled to a waveguide containing an incident single-photon pulse. We show that the strong photon correlation, as induced by the atom, plays a very important role in stimulated emission. Additionally, the temporal duration of the incident photon pulse is shown to have a marked effect on stimulated emission and atomic lifetime. 相似文献

When an atom absorbs a photon from a laser beam that is not an infinite plane wave, the atom's recoil is less than variant Planck's k in the propagation direction. We show that the recoils in the transverse directions produce a lensing of the atomic wave functions, which leads to a frequency shift that is not discrete but varies linearly with the field amplitude and strongly depends on the atomic state detection. The same lensing effect is also important for microwave atomic clocks. The frequency shifts are of the order of the naive recoil shift for the transverse wave vector of the photons. 相似文献

An overview is given of typical examples of interference experiments that confirm the general quantum mechanical rule that distinguishability of the paths destroys interference. It will be shown that path information can be gained in different ways: from the screen's or the atom's recoil in Young-type optical experiments; from the spontaneously emitted photon in atom optics; and from the idler photon, in a striking interference experiment with a photon pair being involved. In all cases, the physical mechanism that actually makes the interference pattern disappear is elucidated. 相似文献

We study the photon generation in a transmission line oscillator coupled to a driven qubit in the presence of a dissipative electromagnetic environment. It has been demonstrated previously that a population inversion in the qubit can lead to a lasing state of the oscillator. Here we show that the circuit can also exhibit the effect of "lasing without inversion." It arises since the coupling to the dissipative environment enhances photon emission as compared to absorption, similar to the recoil effect predicted for atomic systems. While the recoil effect is very weak, and so far elusive, the effect described here should be observable with realistic circuits. We analyze the requirements for system parameters and environment. 相似文献

This paper solves the problem of the interaction of an electron and positron via the field of soft and hard photons with emission
or absorption of a real photon. The interaction is interpreted as a third-order QED effect in the coordinate representation.
The role of intermediate states with positive and negative frequencies is studied. A general expression is derived for the
matrix elements of the operator of the effective electron-positron interaction energy for different types of quantum transitions.
The expression makes it possible to calculate the probabilities of the corresponding transitions in the nonrelativistic approximation.
Electric dipole transitions in the positronium atom accompanied by emission (absorption) of an optical photon are investigated.
Two-particle wave functions of the positronium atom are used to introduce the concept of polarization fields inside the positronium
atom. It is found that the polarization fields depend on the coordinates and time and on the choice of the pair of states
between which a quantum transition with emission or absorption of a photon takes place.

A simple geometry utilizing a laser-excited atomic beam as light source, and a nearby oscillating mirror, would permit the observation of a two-channel optical interference effect involving photons which can be localized predominantly in one channel by coincidence observations of the recoiling source atom. A sacrifice of the optimum conditions for photon interference is necessary even when photon localization in one channel is accomplished by an observation of the recoil atom. This necessity arises because the width of the slit defining the atomic beam, and with it the important optical source dimension, must be comparable to the optical wavelength to obtain the small uncertainty in initial total momentum needed for significant localization. Quantum mechanical calculations of the coincidence intensity and singles intensity as a function of mirror position are made for a source width of five quarter wavelengths and are compared to a classical optics calculation of the singles intensity. The coincidence intensity calculation, as expected, predicts a smaller interference effect than classical optics due to the photon localization. The singles intensity calculation also predicts the same reduction in the classical interference effect, as a consequence of the orthoganality of the final atom states. 相似文献

A model has been established for the interaction between
a single-mode optical field and a 2-energy-level cold atom with exact
analytic solutions given. The processes of momentum and energy exchanges
between the optical field and the cold atom due to the interaction between
them are discussed in detail, and a formula has been given for the variation
of momentum and energy exchange volumes with time t in dress state while
both the effects of photon recoil and Doppler effect are taken into
consideration. 相似文献

The thermal friction force acting on an atom moving relative to a thermal photon bath has recently been calculated on the basis of the fluctuation-dissipation theorem. The thermal fluctuations of the electromagnetic field give rise to a drag force on an atom provided one allows for dissipation of the field energy via spontaneous emission. The drag force exists if the atomic polarizability has a nonvanishing imaginary part. Here, we explore alternative derivations. The damping of the motion of a simple harmonic oscillator is described by radiative reaction theory (result of Einstein and Hopf), taking into account the known stochastic fluctuations of the electromagnetic field. Describing the excitations of the atom as an ensemble of damped harmonic oscillators, we identify the previously found expressions as generalizations of the Einstein-Hopf result. In addition, we present a simple explanation for blackbody friction in terms of a Doppler shift of the thermal radiation in the inertial frame of the moving atom: The atom absorbs blue-shifted photons from the front and radiates off energy in all directions, thereby losing energy. The original plus the two alternative derivations provide for additional confirmation of an intriguing quantum friction effect, and leave no doubt regarding its existence. 相似文献

Carbon 1s photoelectron spectra of methane are measured over a photon energy range between 480 eV and 1200 eV. Additional components appear between the individual symmetric stretching vibrational components and are attributed to the excitations of asymmetric stretching and bending vibrations due to recoil of the high-energy photoelectron emission. This recoil effect is the evidence for the violation of the Franck-Condon principle which states that neither the positions nor the momenta of the nuclei change during the ionization event. 相似文献

The spectral probability densities of the spontaneous emission and the generation of harmonics by a hydrogen atom in the field of intense laser pulse are calculated. A previously proposed approach is used, which is based on the Kramers?Henneberger transformation for the wave function of time-dependent Schrödinger equation and expansion in the unperturbed atomic eigenstates and the photon states. The spectral range up to the tenth harmonic is investigated with the laser pulse duration ranging from 6 to 12 optical cycles and the peak intensity varied from 1 to 10 TWcm?2. 相似文献

Observation of photon recoil effects in single-beam absorption spectroscopy with an ultracold strontium gas 下载免费PDF全文
We report on observing photon recoil effects in the absorption of a single monochromatic light at 689 nm through an ultracold 88Sr gas,where the recoil frequency is comparable to natural linewidth of the narrow-line transition 5s2 1S0-5s5p 3P1 in strontium.In the regime of high-saturation,the absorption profile becomes asymmetric due to the photon-recoil shift,which is of the same order as the natural linewidth.The lineshape is described by an extension of the optical Bloch equations including the momentum transfers to atoms during emission and absorption of photons.Our work reveals the photon recoil effects in a simplest single-beam absorption setting,which is of significant relevance to other applications such as saturation spectroscopy,Ramsey interferometry,and absorption imaging. 相似文献
