Optical Bistability with Two-Level Atoms [PDF]

open access: yesTopical Meeting on Optical Bistability, 1983
Since the first observation of optical bistability in 1976 (1), a large number of investigations of this phenomenon have appeared in the literature (2). Of particular theoretical interest has been the bistable system composed of "two-level" atoms within an optical resonator.

Decay of a two-level atom

Physical Review A, 1990
We have reexamined the two-level atom with decay from the excited state out of the system and have noticed a rather surprising result. The intuitive exponential decay of the ground state at the damping rate of the excited state is actually reduced substantially when this damping rate is much greater than the Rabi frequency between the two states.

Berry’s phase in a two-level atom

Physical Review A, 1989
Berry's phase in the coherent excitation of a two-level atom is shown to be an observable effect, as a shift of the side bands of the Mollow's triplet. Berry's phase effects, the adiabatic following model, and nonadiabatic evolution of a two-level atom are discussed in a unified manner.

Ultrafast pulse interactions with two-level atoms

Physical Review A, 1995
An iterative predictor-corrector finite-difference time-domain method is used to solve the semiclassical Maxwell-Bloch system numerically without invoking any of the standard approximations such as the rotating-wave approximation. This approach permits a more exact study of self-induced transparency effects in a two-level atom.

Entropy squeezing for a two-level atom

Journal of Modern Optics, 2000
The usual definition of squeezing, based on the Heisenberg uncertainty principle, measures uncertainty in terms of the standard deviation. It can run into difficulties when applied to squeezing in the two-level atom. An alternative definition of squeezing is presented for this system, based on information entropy theory, which overcomes the ...

Force on Two-Level Atoms

1999
Laser cooling and trapping rely on the interaction between laser light and atoms to exert a controllable force on the atoms, and many sophisticated schemes have been developed using the special properties of the interaction. The outcome is a new field called laser cooling and trapping of atoms that has flourished over the last decade.
