The aim of this work is to investigate the changing effects of the atom–cavity coupling constant on an atom–cavity system. A three-level atom in the Λ configuration with q-photon transition between levels 2 and 3 is confined in a single-mode Fabry–Pérot optical cavity. To solve the master equation of this system in the steady-state by using the appropriate physical quantities, the matrix continued fractions method for recurrence equations is applied. The behavior of physical observables including atom–field correlation, mean photon number, and second-order coherence function is discussed. The effect of altering the atom–cavity coupling constant for different transitions on these observables is fully considered. The results of calculations show that by increasing this coupling constant, the range of atom–cavity correlation becomes longer, the maximum value of the output mean photon number from the cavity remains almost constant, the broadening in the curves of the mean photon number increases and the lasing process is amplified in the system. Finally, the transformation of the three-level atom into a two-level one under several specific conditions in a four-photon transition case has been studied. The obtained results of the two-level atomic pattern are adequately confirmed by the simulations related to the three-level atom.

The number-phase Wigner function W NP (defined in Refs. 3 and 4) has been studied for the field state of a two-level atom undergoing two-photon transition in a single mode field sustained in an ideal cavity. The photon number and the phase observables are graphically represented by this function W NP and thus their complementarity can be directly studied at any time for any initial atomic as well as field state.

We study the interaction between a single mode electromagnetic field and a three-level [Formula: see text]-type atom in the presence of a classical homogenous gravitational field when the atom is prepared initially in the momentum eigenstate. The model includes the detuning parameters and the classical homogenous gravitational field. The wave function is calculated by using the Schrödinger equation for a coherent electromagnetic field and an atom is in its excited state. The influence of the detuning parameter and the classical homogenous gravitational field on the temporal behavior of the mean photon number, the normalized second-order correlation function and the normal squeezing is analyzed. The results show that the presence of these parameters has an important effect on these phenomena. The conclusion is reached and some features are given.

We investigate the evolution of the atomic quantum entropy and the atom-field entanglement in a system of a Ξ-configuration three-level atom interacting with a single-mode field with additional forms of nonlinearities of both the field and the intensity-dependent atom-field coupling. With the derivation of the unitary operator within the frame of the dressed state and the exact results for the state of the system, we perform a careful investigation of the temporal evolution of the entropy. A factorization of the initial density operator is assumed, considering the field to be initially in a squeezed coherent or binomial state. The effects of the mean photon number, detuning, Kerr-like medium and the intensity-dependent coupling functional on the entropy are analyzed.

We study sub-Poissonian photon statistics of light in interaction of a single mode radiation, initially either in a coherent state or in a superposed coherent state with an assembly of two-level atoms using the Hamiltonian, H = ω(a+a + Sz) + g(aS+ + a+ S–) in natural units, where a+ and a are creation and annihilation operators, Sz, S ± are the collective Dicke operators, g is the coupling constant, and ω is the energy of the photons and also the separation between the two atomic levels. We study the cases of (i) a single two-level and (ii) of two two-level atoms interacting with a single mode coherent or superposed coherent radiation. We find that for large coupling time gt, Fano factor shows collapses and revival phenomena, and that the variation is large for small mean number of photons. We also find that in the case of two two-level atoms, photon statistics shows larger sub-Poissonian than the case of a single two-level atom, and that there is no definite relationship between squeezing and sub-Poissonian photon statistics of light.

The present study investigates the interaction of an equidistant three-level atom and a single-mode cavity field that has been initially prepared in a generalized coherent state. The atom–field interaction is considered to be, in general, intensity-dependent. We suppose that the nonlinearity of the initial generalized coherent state of the field and the intensity-dependent coupling between atom and field are distinctly chosen. Interestingly, an exact analytical solution for the time evolution of the state of atom–field system can be found in this general regime in terms of the nonlinearity functions. Finally, the presented formalism has been applied to a few known physical systems such as Gilmore–Perelomov and Barut–Girardello coherent states of SU(1,1) group, as well as a few special cases of interest. Mean photon number and atomic population inversion will be calculated, in addition to investigating particular non-classicality features such as revivals, sub-Poissonian statistics and quadratures squeezing of the obtained states of the entire system. Also, our results will be compared with some of the earlier works in this particular subject.

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 paper, we employ the energy surface method to study a system of a two-level atom Bose–Einstein condensate coupled to a high-finesse optical cavity interacting with a single-mode electromagnetic field in the presence of the Stark-shift. The energy surface, the Phase transitions and the Berry phase of the two-level atom in Dicke model are obtained. Employing the Holstein–Primakoff representation of the angular momentum Lie algebra, the coupling line separation of the normal phase and the superradiant phase which occurs in a collection of fluorescent emitters (such as atoms), between a state containing few electromagnetic excitations are studied and a mean field description of the Dicke model is presented. We notice that in the thermodynamic limit, the energy surface takes a simple form for a direct description of the phase transition. Moreover, we show that the Stark-shift parameters and the atom–atom interactions can strongly affect the phase transition point. The results in the absence of the Stark-shift agree precisely with those obtained by Li, Liu and Zhou, who studied the same model using a different method.
