Quantum electrodynamics of a three-level and a two-level Rydberg atom in a bimodal ideal cavity
N. Nayak, Vasileios Bartzis · Physical Review A · 1990
We show the differences in the dynamics of a three-level and a two-level Rydberg atom interacting with two nondegenerate modes of frequencies ${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\omega}}}_{1}$ and ${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\omega}}}_{2}$ in an ideal cavity. In the case ${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\omega}}}_{1}$=${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\omega}}}_{0}$+\ensuremath{\epsilon} and ${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\omega}}}_{2}$=${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\omega}}}_{0}$-\ensuremath{\epsilon} (\ensuremath{\epsilon}\ensuremath{\ll}${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\omega}}}_{0}$), we present the time evolution of squeezing in the amplitudes (modulated at \ensuremath{\epsilon}) of waves of frequency ${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\omega}}}_{0}$.
