Micromaser spectrum

Quantum theory of frequency pulling in the cavity-QED microlaser

“…This result appears as a simple generalization of the on-resonance result [9] by replacing 2g √ n + 1 in the denominator of the sine term with Ω n . Let us examine the imaginary part δ n which has never been addressed so far in the literature.…”

“…n in the steady state [9]. Such a balance guides ρ (1) n to decay exponentially with a single time constant 1 2 µ n .…”

“…In this section we generalize the master-equation-based theory of the micromaser spectrum [9] in order to include the effect of atom-cavity detuning. The key expressions relating steady-state variables are derived analytically.…”

“…The wave property, on the other hand, which is expected to exhibit the complementary nature still awaits its experimental verification. In particular, the power spectral density or the first-order coherence is expected to show features [9] unexplainable by the conventional Schawlow-Townes linewidth theory [10]. Since the seminal work on the theory of the micromaser spectrum [9], more elaborate and refined calculations [11][12][13][14][15] have followed.…”

Since the seminal work on the theory of the micromaser spectrum [9], more elaborate and refined calculations [11][12][13][14][15] have followed. Indirect measurement of the micromaser spectrum has been proposed by using an atom probe [16][17][18].…”
