Entropy squeezing of the field interacting with a nearly degenerate V-type three-level atom

The position- and momentum-entopic squeezing properties of the optical field in the system of a nearly degenerate three-level atom interacting with a single-mode field are investigated. Calculation results indicate that when the field is initially in the vacuum state, it may lead to squeezing of the position entropy or the momentum entropy of the field if the atom is prepared properly. The effects of initial atomic state and the splitting of the excited levels of the atom on field entropies are discussed in this case. When the initial field is in a coherent state, we find that position-entropy squeezing of the field is present even if the atom is prepared in the ground state. By comparing the variance squeezing and entropy squeezing of the field we confirm that entropy is more sensitive than variance in measuring quantum fluctuations.     

Destructive Interference in a A-Type Coherently Driven Mazer

We derive an expression of the interaction between a quantum cavity field and an ultracold A-type three-level atom in which two upper levels are coupled by a coherent driving field. The effects of the driving-induced atomic coherence on the atomic emission probability are investigated. It is found that, due to the driving-induced atomic coherence, there are two transition channels for the atom interacting with the cavity field. Between the two transition channels, there is a quantum interference, which is a destructive interference. This destructive quantum interference suppresses the emission of the atom. The atomic emission probability decreases with the increasing driving field.     

Quantum Nonlocality in Atom—Field Coupling System via Degenerate Raman Processes with Cavity Damping

The property of quantum nonlocality in the atom-field coupling system via degenerate Raman processes with cavity damping is investigated.It is found that if the cavity dissipation is very weak,the atom-field state can exhibit quantum nonlocality periodically.The rapidity of the loss of the quantum nonlocality depends on the amplitude of the initial coherent state and the cavity damping constant.The stronger the field is and the larger the damping constant could be ,the more rapidly the nonlocality decreases.     

A Lower Bound on the Entanglement in the Jaynes-Cummings Model

The entanglement between an atom and field is investigated by using the 3aynes-Cummings model. The initial atomic state is supposed in a mixed state and the field is in a squeezed state. The lower bound on the entanglement quantified by concurrence is calculated. It is found that the entanglement with the atom being initially in a mixed state can be larger than that with the atom being initially in a pure state. The entanglement is not a monotone function of the squeezing parameter r of the field and it achieves the maximum for certain r and then decreases with further increase of r.     

Linear entropy dynamics of the field in the Jaynes－Cummings model with an intensity-dependent coupling in the dispersive approximation

We present the linear entropy dynamics of the field state in the dispersive cavity in the Jaynes－Cummings model with an intensity-dependent coupling in the dispersive approximation, and investigate the influence of dissipation on entanglement between the field and the atoms. We show that the coherence properties of the field are also affected by the cavity when the nonlinear process of the field interacting with the atoms with an intensity-dependent coupling is involved, and find that the dissipation constant, the intensity of the field and the atomic distribution angle have different influence on the coherence properties of the field.     

Entanglement and Its Dynamics with Atomic Spontaneous Decay

The atomic decay for a two-level atom interacting with a single mode of electromagnetic tield is considered. For a chosen initial state, the exact solution of the master equation is found. Therefore, effect of the atomic damping on entanglement （purity loss）, degree of entanglement by the negativity, mutual information and atomic coherence through the master equation are studied.     

Entropy squeezing and atomic inversion in the h-photon Jaynes-Cummings model in the presence of the Stark shift and a Kerr medium： A full nonlinear approach

The interaction between a two-level atom and a single-mode field in the k-photon Jaynes-Cummings model （JCM） in the presence of the Stark shift and a Kerr medium is studied. All terms in the Hamiltonian, such as the single-mode field, its interaction with the atom, the contribution of the Stark shift and the Kerr medium effects are considered to be f-deformed. In particular, the effect of the initial state of the radiation field on the dynamical evolution of some physical properties such as atomic inversion and entropy squeezing are investigated by considering different initial field states （coherent, squeezed and thermal states）.     

Transmission Probability of an Ultracold Atom in the Presence of Atomic Coherence

We investigate the transmission probability of an ultracold V-type three-level atom passing through a micromaser cavity,in the presence of atomic coherence which is established by a coherent driving field.We show that the transmissibility of this micromaser system with the atomic coherence is better than that of the ordinary micromaser system without atomic coherence.When the driving field is strong enough,for any cavity length the ultracold atom can pass through the micromaser cavity freely.

COHERENT POPULATION TRAPPING IN THE SYSTEM OF A Λ-CONFIGURATION MULTILEVEL ATOM DRIVEN BY A TWO-MODE QUANTIZED FIELD

We have studied the atomic coherent population trapping in the system of a two-mode quantized field interacting with a Λ-configuration multilevel atom with one lower discrete state mad two sets of quasicontinuum states, or a set of quasicontinuum states and a set of true continuum states. The influence of the atom's initial preparation and the properties of the atomic upper levels on whether or not atomic coherent population trapping occurs, and the states of the field which trap the atom are analyzed.     

Dissipation of System and Atom in Two-Photon Jaynes–Cummings Model with Degenerate Atomic Levels

A method of perturbative expansion of master equation is employed to study the dissipative properties of system and of atom in the two-photon Jaynes–Cummings model (JCM) with degenerate atomic levels. The numerical results show that the degeneracy of atomic levels prolongs the period of entanglement between the atom and the field. The asymptotic value of atomic linear entropy is apparently increased by the degeneration. The amplitude of local entanglement and disentanglement is suppressed. The better the initial coherence property of the degenerate atom, the larger the coherence loss.     

Coherence Loss of Two-Photon Jaynes-Cummings Model in Dispersive Approximation

Completely solving the dissipative dynamics of nonlinear Jaynes-Cumming model is a very difficult task.In our recent work (Phys. Lett. A284 (2001) 156), we just obtained analytical results of the field dissipative dynamics of the nonlinear JCM. In the present paper, employing the perturbative expansion of master equation, we obtain the density operator of the system (field +atom). The coherence losses of the system and of the atom are investigated when two-photon process is involved. We also study the effect of different atomic initial states and the influence of the field amplitude on the atomic coherence loss.

The effect of environment induced pure decoherence on the generalized Jaynes-Cummings model

We have studied the effect of environment induced pure decoherence on the generalized Jaynes-Cummings model (JCM). This generalized JCM is introduced to take into account both atom-field interaction and a class of spin-orbit interactions in the same framework. For generalized JCM with atom-field interaction, it is shown that along with the suppression of the oscillatory behaviour of the atomic and field variables, in the steady state, atomic energy is transferred to the field or vice versa through the dressed state coherence depending on the initial condition of the atom-field system and the model under consideration. It is also shown that initial Poissonian field acquires a sub-Poissonian character in the steady state and thus all the nonclassical properties are not erased by the decoherence in JCM. An interesting effect of this decoherence mechanism is that it affects the population and coherence properties of the individual subsystem in a different way. As an example of generalized JCM with spin-orbit interaction, the dynamics of spin of the hydrogen atom in a magnetic field is studied to show the effect of decoherence.     

Entanglement dynamics and quasiprobability distribution for the degenerate Raman process

In this paper, we consider the model which consists of a degenerate Raman process involving two degenerate Rydberg energy levels of an atom interacting with a single-mode cavity field. The influence of the atomic coherence on the von Neumann entropy of the atom and the atomic inversion is investigated. It is shown that the atomic coherence decreases the amount of atom-field entanglement. It is also found that the collapse and revival times are independent of the atomic coherence, while the amplitude of the revivals is sensitive to this coherence. Moreover, the Q function and the entropy squeezing of the field are examined. Some new conclusions can be obtained.

Two-Photon Micromaser with Initial Atomic Coherence

We investigate the quantum dynamics of a two-photon micromaser pumped by atoms injected in the superposition state of the upper and intermediate levels. We simulate a master equation governing the system by the Monte Carlo wavefunction approach and analyse the steady-state behaviour as a function of the atomic transit time. The atomic coherence can effectively enhance the intensity and sub-Poissonian of the cavity field as compared with the atomic mixture. It is also discovered that the phase of the cavity field can be shifted by adjusting the detuning between the atom and field. This result shows that it is possible to manipulate the phase of the cavity field by detuning, due to atomic coherence.
