Abstract

The fluorescence photon correlations in a driven four-level atom consisting of three upper closely lying excited states and a single lower state are investigated. It is found that in the presence of triple spontaneously generated coherence (SGC) effects, which are created by three degenerate levels coupling to the common ground state via the same vacuum mode, the correlation properties of the three fluorescence fields can be switched from strong correlation to anticorrelation or vice versa by modifying the detunings. In addition, such a system is very sensitive to the relative phases of the three fields, which can provide an effective way to control the photon correlation. Physically, these interesting phenomena can be interpreted in terms of dressed state analysis.
