Three-dimensional cavity-assisted spontaneous emission as a single-photon source: two cavity modes and Rabi resonance

TL;DR

This paper investigates how a two-mode cavity system can enhance single-photon emission through Rabi resonance, using exact quantum electrodynamics to analyze the emission process in dispersing and absorbing media.

Contribution

It introduces a detailed quantum electrodynamics analysis of two cavity modes interacting with an emitter, highlighting the Rabi resonance effect in a three-dimensional cavity.

Findings

Observation of Rabi resonance when one mode is in resonance with the emitter

Enhanced single-photon emission due to cavity mode interactions

Quantitative analysis of emission spectra in dispersing media

Abstract

Within the framework of exact quantum electrodynamics in dispersing and absorbing media, we have studied the emission from an initially in the upper state prepared emitter in a high quality cavity in the case, when there are two cavity modes that resonantly interact with the emitter. In particular, when one of the modes is in resonance with the emitter transition and the other mode is tuned to the frequency equal to the Rabi splitting of the first mode, the effect of Rabi resonance is observed.
