Quantum dynamics and nonclassical photon statistics of coherently driven Raman transition in bimodal cavity

ABSTRACT

We study a classically driven two-level system in a harmonic trap and a lossy two-mode cavity, with the first mode being resonant to the driving field and an electronic transition, and the second mode being off-resonant, forming a vibrational-assisted Raman transition. Using an exact numerical method, we compute the steady state as well as the time evolution of the photon statistics. We further investigate the photon correlations of both the cavity modes and identify the laser parameters and coupling strength that give the nonclassical sub-Poissonian property. The work is useful for coherent control of photon statistics and photon correlations in the trapped two-level system.
