Abstract
We generalize our earlier formalism to treat the effects of both the finite-bandwidth excitations and finite arbitrary detunings, on the fluorescent spectra and second-order intensity correlation functions in optical double resonance. It is assumed that the bandwidth arises from the phase and/or amplitude fluctuations in the fields driving a three-level atom in cascade configuration. Under the conditions that one or both of these fields are intense, secular approximation and the theory of multiplicative stochastic processes are invoked to derive a Markovian master equation for the atomic-density operator averaged over both phase and amplitude. The quantum regression theorem is used to derive analytical expressions for the fluorescent spectra and the second-order intensity correlation functions which explicitly display the effects due to detunings and fluctuations.
