Noise and Order in Cavity Quantum Electrodynamics

In this paper we investigate the various aspects of noise and order in the micromaser system. In particular, we study the effect of adding fluctuations to the atom cavity transit time or to the atom-photon frequency detuning. By including such noise-producing mechanisms we study the probability and the joint probability for excited atoms to leave the cavity. The influence of such fluctuations on the phase structure of the micromaser as well as on the long-time atom correlation length is also discussed. We also derive the asymptotic form of micromaser observables.

Quantum Dynamics of Non-Degenerate Parametric Amplification

A simple model of a two-mode non-resonant parametric amplifier is studied with special regard to non-classical features such as revivals and squeezing. The methods used apply for an arbitrary pump parameter. Detailed analytical and explicit expressions are given when the coupling of the two modes has an harmonic time-dependence. Despite its simplicity the model exhibits a very broad range of intricate physical effects. We show that quantum revivals are possible for a broad continuous range of physical parameters in the case of initial Fock states. For coherent states we find that such revivals are possible only for certain discrete rational number combinations of the ratio of frequency detuning and pump parameters. Correlation effects are shown to be very sensitive to the initial state of the system.
