Quantum states of a two-electron atom trapped in a helical optical tube
We investigate the quantized states of a two-level Rb atom that is trapped by the optical dipole potential when the atom interacts with a helical optical tube light field. The analysis shows that the stationary states can be defined by a triplet of quantum numbers and the corresponding wave functions exhibit a twisted, spiral-like 3D spatial shape.
We investigate the interaction of atoms with a Laguerre-Gaussian beam near the vortex center where an annular nodal area exists on and around the…
We present the theoretical framework and the approximations needed to numerically simulate the response of alkali metal atoms under multi-photon excitation.
We report theoretical results for the transition amplitudes of two-photon transitions induced in a one-active-electron atomic system by a LG10 beam. We identify the excitation pathways for…
