One-photon electrodynamics in optical fiber-fluorophore systems: III One-polariton propagation in fluorophore-driven fibers
Rod W. C. Vance, Francois J. Ladouceur · Journal of the Optical Society of America B · 2007
A simple model of the electromagnetic field coupled to matter as a system of coupled quantum harmonic oscillators (QHOs) with a photon number conserving Hamiltonian is specialized to a translationally invariant optical fiber and then equipped with a QHO model for a one-photon fluorophore source. In the narrowband fluorescence limit, this fluorophore model becomes the same as the classical model for a current loop antenna.
