Effect of the counterrotating-wave terms on the spontaneous emission from a multilevel atom
(American Physical Society, 2009)
The spontaneous decay of a multilevel atom interacting with the electromagnetic field in free space is investigated with a unitary transformation method, which is introduced in order to include all rotating and counter-rotating ...
Atom localization via phase and amplitude control of the driving field
(American Physical Society, 2002)
Control of amplitude and phase of the driving field in an atom-field interaction leads towards the strong line narrowing and quenching in the spontaneous emission spectrum. We exploit this fact for the atom localization ...
Resonant enhancement of high-order optical nonlinearities based on atomic coherence RID A-1272-2007
(American Physical Society, 2002)
We show that the effect of coherent population trapping may result in resonant enhancement of chi((5)) or higher-order nonlinearities. The enhancement is accompanied by suppression of the other linear and nonlinear ...
Hanbury Brown-Twiss effect and thermal light ghost imaging: A unified approach
(American Physical Society, 2009)
We compare the Hanbury Brown-Twiss (HBT) and the thermal light ghost imaging schemes in both near and far fields. Both effects arise as a result of the intensity fluctuations of the thermal light and we find that the ...
Condensation of N bosons. II. Nonequilibrium analysis of an ideal Bose gas and the laser phase-transition analogy
(American Physical Society, 2000)
A nonequilibrium approach to the dynamics and statistics of the condensate of an ideal N-atom Bose gas cooling via interaction with a thermal reservoir using the canonical ensemble is developed. We derive simple analytical ...
Quantum-state measurement of two-mode entangled field-state in a high-Q cavity RID C-6638-2008
(American Physical Society, 2005)
We propose a scheme for the measurement of a two-mode entangled field-state in a high-Q cavity. The scheme utilizes the momentum distribution spectrum in the Raman-Nath regime of a three-level atom in V configuration. Due ...
Nonlinear magneto-optical rotation of elliptically polarized light RID A-1272-2007 RID B-9041-2008
(American Physical Society, 2003)
We predict theoretically and demonstrate experimentally an ellipticity-dependent nonlinear magneto-optic rotation of elliptically polarized light propagating in a medium with atomic coherence. We show that this effect ...
Theory of femtosecond coherent anti-Stokes Raman backscattering enhanced by quantum coherence for standoff detection of bacterial spores
(American Physical Society, 2005)
Backscattered signal of coherent anti-Stokes Raman spectroscopy can be an extremely useful tool for remote identification of airborne particles, provided the signal is sufficiently large. We formulate a semiclassical theory ...
Distilling two-atom distance information from intensity-intensity correlation functions RID A-5077-2009
(American Physical Society, 2006)
The intensity-intensity correlation function of the resonance fluorescence light of two two-level atoms driven by a resonant standing-wave laser field is examined. Our aim is to gain information on the distance between the ...
