Coherent energy transfer of a pair of two-level atoms

Abstract

The coherent energy transfer efficiency of a pair of two-level atoms is studied theoretically and its mathematical expression has been deduced. The problem of atoms coherent energy transfer theory is treated by quantum perturbation theory and equivalent method replacing atomic dipole field with light field of the same frequency. The detuning between the donor atom transition frequency and the acceptor atom transition frequency has been studied in the theory. With the increase of the detuning of the two-atomic transition frequency, the energy transfer efficiency decays rapidly. In the case of two-atomic transition frequency resonance, the coherent resonance energy transfer efficiency is directly proportional to the square of the sine of the minus three power of the distance between two atoms and the energy transfer efficiency is periodically decaying over time. The coherent resonance energy transfer efficiency is inversely proportional to the six power of the distance between the two atoms in the first-order approximation.
