Entanglement of a three-level atom interacting with two-modes field in a cavity

Abstract

The dynamics of the interaction between an atom of three levels interacting with a quantized field of two modes in a cavity is studied within the rotating wave approximation, by taking into account experimental values of the accessible hyperfine levels of alkaline atoms. An equal detuning is considered to determine the matter-field entanglement, the statistical properties of the photons, and the occupation probabilities of the atom. For a large detuning or weak dipolar strength appear the Raman condition, that is, the suppression of one of his atomic transitions. Analytic expression for the time evolution operator allows to have also explicit closed expressions for the field and matter observables.
