Resonant fluorescence of a three-level atom

The fluorescence spectrum of a three-level atom interacting with strong electromagnetic monochromatic field is obtained. The calculations are based on the quantum “fluctuation-regression theorem”. It is shown, that the fluorescence spectrum contains five lines, the properties of which are discussed.     

Exact results for a model of a three-level atom

For a three-level atom interacting with two modes of the quantized radiation field the time dependence of transition operators, photon amplitudes, and of operators of level populations and photon numbers is examined rigorously. It is shown that the availability of a mode detuning leads to the splitting of the “soft branch” of frequencies of two-photon Rabi oscillations.     

Entanglement of a three-level trapped atom in the presence of another three-level trapped atom

A new version of two multi-level trapped atoms interacting with laser fields is under consideration. This system is based on a three-level trapped atom interacting with laser fields in the presence of another three-level trapped atom taking into account the time-dependent atom-field couplings and phase shift. The entanglement due to the concurrence is calculated and its time evolution phenomena is demonstrated within the framework of the presented theory. Our results establish an explicit relationship between the concurrence and the entanglement through the two three-level atoms and the fields interaction. We show that different nonclassical effects arise in the dynamics of the atomic population inversion, due to the initial states of the system as well as the values of the Lamb-Dicke parameter.     

Effects of quantum interference on the spontaneous emission in a coherently driven three-level atom

A new scheme of the influence of quantum interference on the spontaneous emission in a coherently driven three-level medium is presented in this paper. The results are the same with that discussed by [S.-Y. Zhu, L.M. Narducci, M.O. Scully, Phys. Rev. A 52, 4791 (1995)] under resonance conditions, but they are different when the driven field is detuned. Received 8 September 1999 and Received in final form 13 January 2000     

Geometric phase of a moving three-level atom

In this paper, we investigate the geometric phase of the field interacting with Ξ-type moving three-level atom. The results show that the atomic motion and the field mode structure play an important roles in the evolution of the system dynamics and geometric phase. We test this observation with experimentally accessible parameters and some new aspects are obtained.     

Resonance fluorescence spectrum of a three-level atom

We consider the excitation spectrum arising from the interaction between a three-level atom and a strong electromagnetic field in the frequency region where the two atomic transition frequencies are nearly equal to once and twice the frequency of the pump field respectively. Detailed expressions for the spectral functions are derived describing the two-, one- and zero-photon excitations as well as those arising from the coupling between them, in the limit of high photon densities. The zero-photon excitations describe low frequency modes induced by the pump field under resonance conditions.

Coherent control of a V-type three-level system in a single quantum dot

In a semiconductor quantum dot, the IIx and IIy transitions to the polarization eigenstates, |x> and |y>, naturally form a three-level V-type system. Using low-temperature polarized photoluminescence spectroscopy, we have investigated the exciton dynamics arising under strong laser excitation. We also explicitly solved the density matrix equations for comparison with the experimental data. The polarization of the exciting field controls the coupling between the otherwise orthogonal states. In particular, when the system is initialized into \Y>, a polarization-tailored pulse can swap the population into |x>, and vice versa, effectively operating on the exciton spin.     

Fidelity of quantum information for V-type three-level atom interacting with a number state light field in Kerr medium

In this paper the evolution characteristics of the fidelity of quantum information for the V-type three-level atom interacting with number state light field in Kerr meddium are investigated. It shows that the periodicity of the evolutions of fidelity of quantum information is influenced by the Kerr coefficient, the photon number of the initial field and intensity of light. The evolutions of the fidelity of quantum information are modulated by the initial number state field. The Rabi oscillation frequency and the modulation frequency of fidelity for the field and the system vary with the value of the Kerr coefficient. The evolutions of fidelity of quantum information obviously show the quantum collapse and revival behaviours in the system of atom interacting with light field.     

Entropy squeezing for three-level atom interacting with a single-mode field

The entropy squeezing for a three-level atom interacting with a single-model field is studied. A general definition of entropy squeezing for three-level atom is given according to entropic uncertainty relation of three-level system, and the calculation formalism of entropy is derived for a cascade three-level atom. By using numerical calculation, the entropy squeezing properties of a cascade three-level atom are examined. Our results show that, three-level atom can generate obvious entropy squeezing effect via choosing appropriate superposition state of three-level atom. Our results are meaningful for preparing three-level system information resources with ultra-low quantum noise.     

The influence of quantum interference effects on the resonance fluorescence spectra of a degenerate three-level atom

The resonance fluorescence spectra of a degenerate three-level atom of the V-type in the field of an intense monochromatic wave with an arbitrary polarization composition are investigated. Analytical expressions are derived for the resonance fluorescence spectra, and the angular distribution of spontaneous fluorescence of atoms is analyzed for the D-line emitted by vapors of alkali atoms. It is shown that the number of lines in the spectrum may decrease in the case of the linear polarization of spontaneous radiation. The radiation relaxation operator is obtained for the D-line of alkali metals in the case when an atom is near the metal surface. Interference effects for such systems are analyzed.     

Anabiosis of phase distribution of a three-level atom

We study the phase probability distribution of a three-level atom interacting with a cavity field in the presence of two-photon detuning and decoherence. Anabiosis of the phase probability distribution is observed due to the presence of the Stark shift. The simulation demonstrates that there is an enhancement of the phase sensitivity as soon as the two-photon detuning is considered. The W-Wigner function is also examined and it is shown that the nonclassical effect is apparent, however, for a small value of the decoherence factor.     

Electrical control of a single Mn atom in a quantum dot

We report on the reversible electrical control of the magnetic properties of a single Mn atom in an individual quantum dot. Our device permits us to prepare the dot in states with three different electric charges, 0, +1e, and -1e which result in dramatically different spin properties, as revealed by photoluminescence. Whereas in the neutral configuration the quantum dot is paramagnetic, the electron-doped dot spin states are spin rotationally invariant and the hole-doped dot spins states are quantized along the growth direction.     

Cooperative two-photon resonance fluorescence of a three-level atom

We have calculated the Green function describing the physical process where a three level atom interacts with a strong pump field as well as with a weak perturbing signal field in the limit of high photon densities. The theory is then used to describe the cooperative two-photon resonance fluorescence which occurs when the sum of the two atomic transition frequencies is nearly twice the frequency of the pump field. Our atomic system is equivalent to a two-level atom when the degeneracy of the ground state is removed by a Stark field. The excitation spectrum has been found to consist of new bands and sidebands which exist only in the presence of the Stark field. The resonance process which occurs when the Stark splitting is in the neighbourhood of the energy shift induced by the laser field has been discussed in detail.

The result indicates that there is a steady entanglement between the three-level atom and its spontaneous field, and they cannot be disentangled even the classical field is very large. In addition, the entanglement of the k photons and q photons is studied, it shows the two field is entangled for short time evolution.

We investigate the dynamics of a tri-beam laser interacting with a closed three-level atomic system. The Bloch equations are obtained using Hesinberg??s equation of motion. The impact of the resulting parameters on the atomic occupation probabilities and information entropy is discussed. It is shown that the populations are affected by the detuning in different ways which are then compared in order to simulate realizations entanglement through the information entropy.
