Dynamical Properties of the Field Phase in the Jaynes-Cummings Model
Ho Trung Dung, R. Tanaś, A.S. Shumovsky · Journal of Modern Optics · 1991
Phase properties of a coherent field interacting with a two-level atom in an ideal cavity are studied using the new hermitian phase formalism of Pegg and Barnett. It is shown in particular that phase properties of the field reflect the collapse and revival phenomena. The effects of finite detuning and atomic coherences are treated. The results for the variance of the phase cosine are obtained and compared with those based on earlier approaches.
