Narrow Results

The problem of a two-level atom interacting with single mode cavity field is considered, however, the optical cavity is filled with new structure of a generalized nonlinear Stark shift via Ξ configuration. One starts with a three-level trapped atom interacting with the quantized field of center of mass motion thus a Hamiltonian for one-phonon process with nonlinearities is derived. Through the elimination of the intermediate level by using the adiabatic elimination method, we generate a new structure of effective Hamiltonian for a two-level atom with a nonlinear Stark shift. The temporal evolution of the atomic inversion is studied, we introduce that in the presence of the Stark shift parameter the atom leaves in a maximal entangled sate. We use the von Neuman entropy to measure the degree of entanglement between the atom and the field. After adding the nonlinear Stark shift the system never reaches the pure state. Also we study the Q-function for obtaining more information in phase space for this system. These aspects are sensitive to changes in the Stark shift parameter. The results shows that the effect of the nonlinearity in the Stark shift changes the quasiperiod of the field entropy and hence the entanglement between the particle and the field.

In this article, the problem of a double Ξ-type four-level atom interacting with a single-mode cavity field is considered. The considered model describes several distinct configurations of a four-level atom. Also, this model includes the detuning parameters of the atom-field system. We obtain the constants of motion and the wavefunction is derived when the atom is initially prepared in the upper state. We used this model for computing a number of the field aspects for the considered system. As an illustration, the model is used for studying the time evolution of the Mandel Q-parameter, amplitude-squared squeezing phenomenon and Q-function when the input field is considered in a coherent state. The results show that these phenomena are affected by the presence of detuning parameters.
