Generalized Jaynes-Cummings model with random telegraph noise

S. V. Lawande, Amitabh Joshi, Q. V. Lawande · Physical Review A · 1995

The Jaynes-Cummings model of a two-level atom interacting with a single quantized mode of radiation field is generalized to include the effects of stochastic fluctuations in the atom-field coupling. The coupling coefficient is assumed to fluctuate either in phase or in frequency. The fluctuations are modeled by binary random telegraph processes. Invoking the Markovian property of the telegraph noise, we derive in these two cases an equation for the density operator averaged over the distribution of fluctuations. The solution of this equation is used to study the resulting decoherence effects in the dynamical behavior of the atom and the statistical properties of the field.
