Motion-quantized Jaynes-Cummings models with an arbitrary intensity-dependent medium
Jiaren Liu, Yuzhu Wang · Physical Review A · 1996
The exact time dependence of the density operator and various physical quantities for the motion-quantized Jaynes-Cummings models (MQJCMs) is given using the operator transformation under which it is shown that the MQJCMs have the same dynamics as the ordinary JCMs in the Kerr medium. The quantum collapses and revivals of the atomic motion due to the quantum properties of light fields and the quantization of atomic position and momentum, are predicted. The effects of the initial atomic momentum distribution and the arbitrary intensity-dependent medium on the collapse and revival phenomena of the population inversion, atomic momentum and radiation are formulated in detail. \textcopyright{} 1996 The American Physical Society.
