Resonant dynamics of the H atom in an elliptically polarized microwave field

4 v 1 2 9 Se p 19 98 H atom in elliptically polarized microwaves : Semiclassical versus quantum resonant dynamics

The dynamics of Rydberg states of atomic hydrogen illuminated by resonant elliptically polarized microwaves is investigated both semiclassically and quantum mechanically in a simplified two-dimensional model of an atom. Semiclassical predictions for quasienergies of the system are found to be in a very good agreement with exact quantum data enabling a classification of possible types of motion ...

H-atom ionization by elliptically polarized microwave fields: The overlap criterion

The threshold for H-atom ionization by elliptically polarized microwave fields is discussed within the classical-mechanics framework using the Chirikov overlap criterion. It is shown that the trends observed in the recent experiment @M. R. W. Bellermann et al. Phys. Rev. Lett. 76, 892 ~1996!# are qualitatively reproduced by the theory; the origin of the remaining discrepancy is discussed. Incre...

Numerical Calculation of Resonant Frequencies and Modes of a Three-Atom Photonic Molecule and a Photonic Crystal in an External Cavity

In the present paper, resonant frequencies and modes of a three-atom photonic molecule and a photonic crystal placed within a cavity are numerically calculated. First, governing formulation in transverse electric field mode (TE) is obtained using Maxwell equations. Then, an algorithm based on a finite difference scheme and matrix algebra is presented. The algorithm is then implemented in a comp...
