二能级量子体系的相干操控对于精密测量和量子信息处理非常重要,如原子钟、原子干涉仪和量子计算等。在实验上观察到相干微波-射频(MW-RF)场驱动下的铷原子超精细基态的双光子Rabi振荡现象。基于塞曼子能级之间热弛豫过程的标定和微波跃迁的测量,清晰地分辨出叠加有热弛豫过程的原子态布居相干振荡。实验测得并详细讨论了广义Rabi频率与中间态失谐和微波/射频功率的关系。当中间态失谐较大时,实验结果与等效二能级理论模型非常吻合;但当中间态失谐较小时,少量原子占据中间态造成实测的Rabi频率偏离理论值。这些结果为二能级量子系统的相干操控提供了有力的理论支持。

We investigate the entanglement dynamics of a quantum system consisting of two two-level atoms in a cavity with classical driving fields in the presence of white noise. The cavity is initially prepared in the vacuum state. Generally, the entanglement of two atoms decreases with the intensity of the thermal fields and the coupling strength of the two-level atoms to the thermal fields. However, we find that the entanglement of the quantum system can be enhanced by adjusting the frequency and the strength of the classical driving fields in the presence of white noise.
