Cavity QED with Center of Mass Tunneling

Baldwin, Charles H.

Abstract Details

2011, Master of Science, Miami University, Physics.
We model the evolution of a single atom in a cavity interacting with two lasers, one far off resonance which creates an optical potential lattice and one near resonance, which can interact with the atom. The atom may tunnel between sites in the lattice. We find that the photon counting statistic depends on the tunneling rate. Additionally we derive methods to work with a Bose-Einstein Condensate in the same situation. It is shown that oscillations in the counting statistic are directly proportional to the tunneling coefficient given in our models.
