INFLUENCE OF SUPERPOSITION OF COHERENT STATES OF LIGHT ON THE EVOLUTION OF THE FIELD ENTROPY AND ENTANGLEMENT IN THE INTENSITY-DEPENDENT JCM

Abstract

We investigate the influence of superposition of coherent states of light on population inversion and the evolution of the field entropy for two-level atoms in the framework of the Jaynes–Cummings model. We compare the behavior of the system in the case of having a coherent superposition state and a statistical mixture of coherent states as an initial field. Our results show that the superposition of coherent states plays an important role in the evolution of the field entropy in the intensity-dependent Jaynes–Cummings model (JCM).
