Nonresonant interaction of a three-level atom with cavity fields. III. Photon-number probabilities and fluctuations
D. L. Lin, Xiao-shen Li, Yue-nan Peng · Physical Review A · 1989
We study the photon statistics in the interaction of a three-level atom with cavity fields of arbitrary detunings. A number of new features of photon-number distributions and fluctuations are found and discussed. The possibility of sub-Poissonian and antibunching effects is also discussed.
