Abstract

The kinetics of atoms in a bichromatic field is considered. Analytic solutions are obtained for the force, friction coefficient, and diffusion coefficient in the model of a two-level atom without limitations imposed on the intensity of light fields. This effect is observed in the domain of global minima and maxima of the optical potential (i.e., at points where the relative phase of two standing waves is Greek-Phi-Symbol = 0, {pi}/2.

Kinetics of atoms in a bichromatic field formed by elliptically polarised waves

Journal Article Prudnikov, O.; Taichenachev, A.; Yudin, V. - Quantum Electronics (Woodbury, N.Y.)

The kinetics of atoms in a bichromatic field formed by waves with an arbitrary elliptical polarisation is considered. Analytical expressions are derived for the force and the friction and diffusion coefficients within the model of an atom with the j {sub g} = 1/2 → j {sub e} = 3/2 optical transition. These expressions are presented in the general form as an expansion in gradients of light field parameters. Some specific features of the kinetics of atoms are found, which are due to the interference contributions to the friction and diffusion coefficients.

Sub-half-wavelength atom localization via phase control of a pair of bichromatic fields

Journal Article Jun, Xu; Xiangming, Hu - Physical Review. A

We propose a scheme of atom localization based on the interaction of the atom in the {lambda} configuration with a strong bichromatic coupling field and a weak bichromatic probe field with equal frequency difference. One of the bichromatic coupling components is a standing-wave field, which imposes position information on the Rabi frequency. By varying the difference between the relative phases of the two bichromatic fields, the atom is localized in either of the two half-wavelength regions with 50% probability provided the population in the upper state is detected.

Dressed-atom description of the bichromatic force

Journal Article Yatsenko, Leonid; Metcalf, Harold - Physical Review. A

We develop a dressed-atom picture of the bichromatic force in two standing waves using a Floquet approach. It is based on previous work, but the approach allows for an interpretation of the velocity range of the force. It is limited to two-level atoms and one dimension, and the Floquet frequency is the beat between the two bichromatic optical fields. The force is mediated by Landau-Zener transitions between the dressed states of the Floquet Hamiltonian. Related topics have been addressed before in the literature, but not applied to this particular case.

Motion of an atom in a weakly driven fiber-Bragg-grating cavity: Force, friction, and diffusion

Journal Article Le Kien, Fam; Hakuta, K - Physical Review. A

We study the translational motion of an atom in the vicinity of a weakly driven nanofiber with two fiber-Bragg-grating mirrors. We calculate numerically and analytically the force, the friction coefficients, and the momentum diffusion. We find that the spatial dependences of the force, the friction coefficients, and the momentum diffusion are very complicated due to the evanescent-wave nature of the atom-field coupling as well as the effect of the van der Waals potential. We show that the time development of the mean number of photons in the cavity closely follows the translational motion of the atom through the nodes andmore »« less

Above-threshold ionization of xenon atoms in a bichromatic phase-controlled laser field of linear and circular polarizations

Journal Article Jingtao, Zhang; Zhizhan, Xu; Shaohui, Li - Physical Review. A

Using a nonperturbative scattering theory, we study the photoionization of xenon atoms irradiated by a bichromatic laser field of linear and circular polarizations. The bichromatic laser field is modulated in such a way that it comprises an infinite sequence of identical, one-cycle laser pulses. The photoelectron angular distribution (PAD) in such a field is inversion asymmetric and depends on the phase difference between laser modes, the laser polarization and intensity, and the kinetic energy of photoelectrons. By investigating the broadening effect in the PADs of lower-order peaks, we show that one can perform an effective control on the motion ofmore » electrons of high kinetic energy.« less
