The effect of permanent dipole moment on the polar molecule cavity quantum electrodynamics

Abstract

A dressed-state perturbation theory beyond the rotating waveapproxi-mation (RWA) is presented to investigate the interaction between a two level electronic transition of the polar molecules and a quantized cavity field. Analytical expressions can be explicitly derived for both the ground- and excited-state-energy spectrums and wave functions of the system, where the contribution of permanent dipole moments (PDM) and the counter-rotating wave term (CRT) can be shown separately. The validity of these explicit results is discussed by comparing with the direct numerical simulation. Comparing to CRT coupling, PDM results in the coupling of more dressed states and the energy shift proportional to the square of the normalized permanent dipole difference, and a greater Bloch-Siegert shift could be produced in giant dipole molecule cavity QED. In addition, our method could also be extended to the solution of two-level atom Rabi model Hamiltonian beyond the RWA.
