Resonance Trapping and Dynamical Phase Transitions

In the non-Hermitian quantum physics, resonance trapping occurs due to width bifurcation in the regime of overlapping resonances. It causes dynamical phase transitions in many-level quantum systems. In the present contribution, three different examples, observed experimentally, are considered. In any case, resonance trapping breaks the symmetry characteristic of the system at low level density due to the alignment of a few states with the scattering states of the environment.     

Radiation Rate of a Two-Level Atom in a Spacetime with a Reflecting Boundary

We study a two-level atom in interaction with a real massless scalar quantum field in a spacetime with a reflecting boundary. We calculate the rate of change of the atomic energy for the atom. The presence of the boundary modifies the quantum fluctuations of the scalar field, which in turn modifies the rate of change of the atomic energy. It is found that the modifications induced by the presence of a boundary make the spontaneous radiation rate of an excited atom to oscillate near the boundary and this oscillatory behaviour may offer a possible opportunity for experimental tests for geometrical （boundary） effects in flat spacetime.     

Intermode Correlation Properties of Laser Radiation Propagating through a Gas Cell with Alkali Atoms under Conditions of a Coherent Population Trapping Resonance

A theory of excitation of a coherent population trapping resonance in hot alkali-metal atoms in a cell with buffer gas is constructed, taking into account the finite spectral width of two-component radiation, its vector properties, and the hyperfine and Zeeman structures of atoms. The propagation of intermode correlations in an optically dense gas cell is studied. It is found that in the case of partially correlated input modes, their correlation degree at the output can increase. This effect can be used for filtering the incoherent part of radiation.     

Quantification of Quantum Entanglement in a Multiparticle System of Two-Level Atoms Interacting with a Squeezed Vacuum State of the Radiation Field

We quantify multiparticle quantum entanglement in a system of N two-level atoms interacting with a squeezed vacuum state of the electromagnetic field. We calculate the amount of quantum entanglement present among one hundred such two-level atoms and also show the variation of that entanglement with the radiation field parameter. We show the continuous variation of the amount of quantum entanglement as we continuously increase the number of atoms from N = 2 to N = 100. We also discuss that the multiparticle correlations among the N two-level atoms are made up of all possible bipartite correlations among the N atoms.     

Variational Study on a Dissipative Two-Level System

A new variational approach is proposed to study the ground-state of a two-level system coupled to a dispersionless pbonon bath. By the extended coherent state, where the more phonon correlations are easily incorporated, we can obtain very accurate ground state energy and the tunnelling reduction factor in all regime of tunnelling matrix element δ0 and coupling parameter s. The relative difference between the present ones and those by exact numerical diagonalization is less then 0.001%. In addition, some simple analytical results are given in the limits of δ0/s → 0 and ∞.     

Continuous Measurement of Energy for a Two-Level System

Quantum Transition of Two-Level System in a Parabolic Quantum Dot

The time evolution of the quantum mechanical state of an electron is calculated by using variational method of Pekar type on the condition of electric-LO phonon strong coupling in a parabolic quantum dot. We obtained the eigen energies of the ground state and the first-excited state, the eigen functions of the ground state and the first-excited state this system in a quantum dot may be employed as a two-level quantum system-qubit. The supposition electron is in system’s ground state in the initial time, the electron transit from the ground state to the excited state in presence of an electric field F along the x axis. The results indicate that the electron transition probability and the oscillation period increase with decreasing the electron-LO-phonon coupling constant, increasing the electric field and the confinement length.     

Energy Transfer and Trapping in Rigid Solutions of Aromatic Polymers

Energy transfer by excitons is now well established in films and solutions of aromatic polymers. Excitons in disordered systems can be considered as electronically excited states, which are transferred between the light absorbing groups in a random hopping process (the same is true in molecular crystals if, because of thermal vibrations, the coherence length of the exciton waves approaches the lattice constant and consequently the band model of the excitons breaks down).     

Optical Radiation Trapping by Current in Gyrotropic Liquid Metacrystals

It is shown that direct electric current passing through a suspension of gyrotropic nanoparticles with residual magnetization (gyrotropic liquid metacrystal) forms a unidirectional waveguide for optical radiation so that trapped light can propagate only in the direction opposite to the direction of current. The localization of electromagnetic radiation is associated with the emergence of nonuniform gyrotropy of the medium as a result of reorientation of magnetic nanoparticles in the nonuniform magnetic field of the current. By way of examples, we consider the trapping of the radiation by a plane current sheet and by a cylindrical current-carrying filament. The dispersion equations of trapped modes are derived and analyzed. The analogy with topologically protected edge photon states is considered.

Absorption Changes Induced by Off-Resonance Driving a Degenerate Two-Level System

The alteration of atomic absorption via quantum coherence is observed in the degenerate two-level atomic system. It is shown that when the detuning of coupling field equals to that of probe light, i.e. two-photon resonance, the reduction of atomic absorption via electromagnetically induced transparency occurs. However, when we tune the coupling field to two-photon off-resonance, the enhancement of absorption is obtained for the probe field. The influences of one-photon detuning and intensity of coupling field on absorption are also experimentally demonstrated.     

Influence of Interaction Retardation and Radiation Reaction on the Fano Resonance Efficiency in the System of Nanoparticles

The system of metallic nanospheroids in the field of monochromatic light wave under conditions of manifestation of the Fano resonance is considered. The dimensions of the nanospheroids are much smaller than the wavelength of the incident radiation, but distances between them can be arbitrary. An analysis is made of the influence of the interparticle interaction and the reaction field on the inhomogeneity of the energy distribution of the collective oscillations of electrons in the system (the Fano resonance efficiency). It is shown that both the retardation and the reaction field contribute to an increase in the resonance efficiency.     

Entanglement for a Two-Level Atomic System Interacting with Two-Mode Spin States

A key element in the architecture of quantum information processing is a reliable physical interface between fields and qubits. Here, we study the population transfer and entanglement for a two-level atomic system interacting with entangled spin coherent states (ESCSs) considering one- and two-mode interactions. The results show that decrease in the spin number provides a periodic behavior of the entanglement exhibiting the sudden death and birth phenomena. For large values of spin, the atom–field system stabilizes at high value of entanglement during the time evolution exhibiting maximum correlations for both cases of one- and two-mode interactions. Finally, we find an interesting correlation between the entanglement and the population transfer during the time evolution. In particular, we show that the population may be used as an indicator of nonlocal correlations in the system under consideration.     

Exactly Solvable Model of a Two-Level Quantum System Interacting with Spin Environment

An exactly solvable model of a two-level quantum system interacting with spin environment is considered. The interaction is assumed to be such that the state of the environment is conserved. Dynamics of the reduced density matrix of the two-level system is calculated for arbitrary coupling strength. The stationary state of the spin is obtained explicitly in the t limit.

A New Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer Pair and Its Application to Oligonucleotide Labeling and Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer Hybridization Studies

We describe two new fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) compatible labels, their covalent linkage to oligonucleotides, and their use as donor and acceptor, respectively, in FRET hybridization studies. The dyes belong to the cyanine dyes, and water solubility is imparted by a phosphonate which represents a new solubilizing group in DNA labels. They were linked to amino-modified synthetic oligonucleotides via oxysuccinimide (OSI) esters. The studies performed include binding assays, determinations of molecular distances, homogeneous competitive assays, and limits of detection, which are in the order of 5 pmol/L for a 15-mer.
