Frozen condition of quantum coherence for atoms on a stationary trajectory
arXiv:1711.04653 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.121.073602
Abstract
We consider two co-moving atoms on a stationary trajectory and develop a formalism to characterize the properties of such atoms. We give a criterion under which quantum coherence (QC) is frozen to a nonzero value and show that the frozen condition (FC) is not so sensitive to the initial condition of state. We introduce the concept super- and subradiant spontaneous excitation rates which plays an equivalent role as conventional collective emission rates in the evolution of quantum coherence. We also give the general relationship between the quantities characterizing properties of atoms in thermal bath and show that the enhanced quantum coherence and subradiant state can be gained from initial state.
