Interaction of quantum systems with single pulses of quantized radiation
arXiv:2203.07477 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevA.107.013706
Abstract
The interaction of a propagating pulse of quantum radiation with a localized quantum system can be described by a cascaded master equation with a distinct initially populated input and a finally populated output field mode [Phys. Rev. Lett. 123, 123604 (2019), arXiv:1902.09833v3]. By transformation to an appropriate interaction picture, we identify the usual Jaynes-Cummings Hamiltonian between the scatterer and a superposition of the initial and final mode, with a strength given by the travelling pulse mode amplitude. The transformation also identifies a coupling of the scatterer with an orthogonal combination of the two modes. The transformed master equation offers important insights into the system dynamics and it permits numerically efficient solutions.
