Observation of the vacuum Rabi spectrum for one trapped atom.
The transmission spectrum for one atom strongly coupled to the field of a high finesse optical resonator is observed to exhibit a clearly resolved vacuum Rabi splitting characteristic of the normal modes in the eigenvalue spectrum of the atom-cavity system. A new Raman scheme for cooling atomic motion along the cavity axis enables a complete spectrum to be recorded for an individual atom trappe...
متن کاملEvolution of the vacuum Rabi peaks in a many-atom system
The two peaks of the vacuum Rabi splitting behave like simple harmonic oscillators for very weak excitation. The transmission spectrum of a cavity filled with two-level atoms shows this doublet at low values of the driving intensity, but only a single peak at high values. The evolution from a doublet to a singlet is governed by the anharmonic response of the system as the driving intensity incr...
متن کاملEvolution of the vacuum Rabi peaks in a detuned atom-cavity system
We measure the transmission spectrum of an optical cavity filled with two-level atoms. For small intensities, the coupling between atoms and a single mode of the cavity splits the spectrum into two normal modes: the vacuum Rabi peaks. We gradually decouple the system in two ways and study the evolution of the vacuum Rabi peaks. First we lower the atom-cavity coupling frequency through its inten...
متن کاملAnharmonicity of the vacuum Rabi peaks in a many-atom system.
We have experimentally observed the evolution of the vacuum Rabi doublet into a singlet in the transmission spectrum of a cavity filled with a collection of two-level atoms. For very weak excitation the peaks behave like simple harmonic oscillators, but become anharmonic as the excitation increases. The anharmonicity grows to a point where hysteresis appears in the transmission spectrum, eventu...
متن کاملFast Quantum Rabi Model with Trapped Ions
We show how to produce a fast quantum Rabi model with trapped ions. Its importance resides not only in the acceleration of the phenomena that may be achieved with these systems, from quantum gates to the generation of nonclassical states of the vibrational motion of the ion, but also in reducing unwanted effects such as the decay of coherences that may appear in such systems.
