We investigate the phenomena of single-mode and two-mode squeezing for a three-level atom and two modes. The field modes are initially taken in coherent states. The effects of detuning on these phenomena are studied for one-photon and two-photon interactions. The relation between the collapse and revival phenomena and single-mode and two-mode squeezing is shown. It is found that the two-mode squeezing is much more effective than the single-mode squeezing for the one-photon interaction. While for the two-photon interaction the reverse is true.

We study the dynamics and quantum characteristics of a single two-level atom interacting with a single mode cavity field undergoing a multi-photon processes in the presence of a nonlinear Kerr-like medium. The wavefunctions of the multi-photon system are obtained when the atom starts in the excited and in the ground state. The atomic inversion, the squeezing of the radiation field and the quasiprobability distribution Q-function of the field are discussed. Numerical results for these characteristics are presented when the atom starts in the excited state and the field mode in a coherent state. The influence of the presence and absence of the number operator and the Kerr medium for the one- and two-photon processes on the evolution of these characteristics are analyzed.

The conventional squeezed states of quantum optics, which can be thought of as generalized coherent states for the algebra SU(1,1), are dynamically generated by single-mode hamiltonians characterized by two-photon process interactions. By the explicit construction of a (highly non-linear) faithful realization of the group [Formula: see text] of automorphisms of SU(1,1), such hamiltonians are shown to be equivalent — up just to elements of [Formula: see text] — to that describing quantum mechanically a damped oscillator.

In this paper we discuss an extension of Jaynes–Cummings model by adding a further atomic level to support a second resonance and cooperative effects in multi-atom systems. A successive passage of a three-level atom in the V configuration interacting with one quantized mode of electromagnetic field in a cavity will be considered to study atomic inversion and entropy evolution of the state.

This investigation describes the interaction of a three level atom with two laser fields. One of the transitions from the ground state is in resonance with twice the frequency of the first laser and the other transition from the ground state is in resonance with the second laser. The Green's function formalism is used to derive expressions from which the induced two photon and one photon excitation spectra are computed. Also, approximate expressions are derived for the excitation spectra in the appropriate frequency regions. These results agree well with the numerical computations based upon the precise expressions. The interference between the two transitions produce some splittings; these splittings depend upon the Rabi frequency of the one photon transition. The intensities of the weak peaks depend upon the ratio of the Rabi frequency of the two photon transition to the frequency of the first laser. Some features of the excitation spectra are interpreted in terms of previous knowledge about the behavior of two level atoms in strong laser fields.

The interaction between the pair of cold two-level atoms and the single-mode cavity field is investigated. The two-level atoms in the pair are supposed to be indistinguishable. This problem generalizes the two-photon Jaynes-Cummings model of a single two-level atom interacting with the squeezed vacuum. The model of the pair of indistinguishable two-level atoms is equivalent to the problem of the equidistant three-level radiator with equal dipole moment matrix transition elements between the adjacent energy levels. Supposing that at the initial moment the field is in the squeezed vacuum state we obtain the exact analytical solution for the atom-field state-vector. By using this solution the quantum-statistical and squeezing properties of the radiation field are investigated. The obtained results are compared with those for the single two-level atom system. We observe that in the model of the pair of cold two-level atoms the exact periodicity of the squeezing revivals is violated by the analogy with the single two-level atom one.

The present study investigates the interaction of an equidistant three-level atom and a single-mode cavity field that has been initially prepared in a generalized coherent state. The atom–field interaction is considered to be, in general, intensity-dependent. We suppose that the nonlinearity of the initial generalized coherent state of the field and the intensity-dependent coupling between atom and field are distinctly chosen. Interestingly, an exact analytical solution for the time evolution of the state of atom–field system can be found in this general regime in terms of the nonlinearity functions. Finally, the presented formalism has been applied to a few known physical systems such as Gilmore–Perelomov and Barut–Girardello coherent states of SU(1,1) group, as well as a few special cases of interest. Mean photon number and atomic population inversion will be calculated, in addition to investigating particular non-classicality features such as revivals, sub-Poissonian statistics and quadratures squeezing of the obtained states of the entire system. Also, our results will be compared with some of the earlier works in this particular subject.

Collapses and revivals phenomenon in system of a single two-level atom and two two-level atoms existing in some superposed states and interacting with a single mode superposed coherent radiation is studied. For superposed Dicke states |1/2, ±1/2> of a single two-level atom interacting with even or odd coherent state, only odd revivals occur. For two two-level atoms, it is found that the collapse and revival times for even and odd coherent states are equal to one half of the corresponding times for coherent state. For this system, Rabi oscillations occur with a main mean frequency and also some second harmonics are present, in general. However, if the two atoms are in the superradiant state, only the second harmonics with large amplitude are obtained. The appearance of weak double frequency revivals for superposed atomic and coherent states was studied and a condition for their disappearance is found.

Until very recently, two-photon interaction processes have been considered only as arising from second- or higher-order effects in driven systems, and so limited to extremely small coupling strengths. However, a variety of novel physical phenomena emerges in the strong and ultrastrong coupling regimes. Strikingly, for a critical value of the coupling strength the discrete spectrum collapses into a continuous band. In this extended abstract, we discuss recent proposals to implement genuine two-photon interactions in an undriven solid-state system, in the framework of circuit QED. In particular, we review counterintuitive spectral features of two-photon interaction models and we show how the onset of the spectral collapse can be observed in feasible scattering experiments.

AbstractThe coherent states in the parity deformed analog of standard boson Glauber coherent states are generated, which admit a resolution of unity with a positive measure. The quantum-mechanical nature of the light field of these para-Bose states is studied, and it is found that para-Bose order plays an important role in the nonclassical behaviors including photon antibunching, sub-Poissonian statistics, signal-to-quantum noise ratio, quadrature squeezing effect, and multi-peaked number distribution. Furthermore, we consider the Jaynes-Cummings model of a two-level atom in a para-Bose cavity field with the initial states of the excited and Glauber coherent ones when the atom makes one-photon transitions, and obtain exact energy spectrum and eigenstates of the deformed model. Nonclassical properties of the time-evolved para-Bose atom-field states are exhibited through evaluating the fidelity, evolution of atomic inversion, level damping, and von Neumann entropy. It is shown that the evolution time and the para-Bose order control these properties.
