Abstract
Frequency-resolved quantum correlation of resonance fluorescence is investigated in a two-atom radiating system. In this quantum radiating system, only one atom is driven by a laser field, and the spontaneous transition of the undriven atom resonates with one of the Rabi sidebands of the driven atom. A single-mode empty cavity is applied to serve as a Lorentzian filter to output the superbunched fluorescent photon pairs when its frequency is tuned to halfway between the central peak and one of the side peaks. In the case of large filter width, two-photon correlation signal and its physical correspondence can be bridged analytically in our approach. It reveals that this superbunching effect turns out to be the constructive quantum interference between a pair of coupled two-photon cascaded transitions. Ulteriorly, it is the consequence of the modulations of the unfiltered dressed-state transition amplitudes by the filter. Our analytical formalism also shows that, although the dipole-dipole interaction is usually weak, the interatomic coherence caused by this weak perturbation can also play a crucial role in breaking through the superbunching limit obtained from a single two-level atom in the same parameter regime. In addition to being a treasurable quantum pump to probe into the target quantum system, it is also found in our investigation that this superbunched fluorescence can serve as a promising quantum response in detecting this weak perturbation in the interior of the quantum source. A general case is also considered when the two-atom radiating system is monitored by two filter-detector monitoring systems. It is found that this filtered strong quantum correlation can be maintained even though the two photons are spatially separated.
