Influence of Femtosecond Laser Parameters on Autler-Townes Splitting of Three-Level Ladder Molecules

We theoretically investigate the Autler-Townes （AT） splitting in the photoelectron spectra of three-level ladder K2 molecule driven by a pump-probe pulse via employing the time- dependent wave packet approach. The dependence of AT splitting on two laser intensities and wavelengths are studied in detail. We firstly quantify these effects on peak shift and AT separation. The photoelectron spectra show double splitting with symmetric profiles, but with asymmetric profiles when the wavelength is changed. The magnitude of AT splitting increases with the pump laser intensity, but does not vary with probe intensity. The shifts of the absorption peaks and the splitting between AT doublet are predicted by using an analyt- ical fitting function when the intensity/wavelength of one of the two fields is changed. These novel results are of importance for the molecular spectroscopy and may further stimulate the first principles theoretical studies analytically.

The quantum inforraation is encoded on the Fock states of the bimodal cavity. The gate＇s averaged fidelity is expected to reach 99.8%.

Population Dynamics and Emission Spectrum of a Cascade Three-Level Jaynes-Cummings Model with Intensity-Dependent Coupling in a Kerr-like Medium

By using the method of eigenvectors, the atomic populations and emission spectrum are investigated in a system that consists of a cascade three-level atom resonantly interacting with a single-mode tield in a Kerr-like medium. The atom and the field are assumed to be initially in the upper atomic state and the Fock state, respectively. Results for models with intensity-dependent coupling and with intensity-independent coupling are compared. It is found that both population dynamics and emission spectrum show no indications of atom-field decoupling in the strong field limit if the intensity-dependent coupling is taken into account.

Schemes for Probabilistic Teleportation of an Unknown Three-Particle Three-Level Entangled state

In this paper, two schemes for teleporting an unknown three-particle three-level entangled state are proposed. In the first scheme, two partial three-particle three-level entangled states are used as the quantum channels, while in the second scheme, three two-particle three-level non-maximally entangled states are employed as quantum channels. It is shown that the teleportation can be successfully realized with certain probability, for both two schemes, ira receiver adopts some appropriate unitary transformations. It is shown also that the successful probabilities of these two schemes are different.

Radiation forces on a three-level atom in the high-order Bessel beams

The general expressions of the average dissipative and dipole forces acting on a A-configuration three-level atom in an arbitrary light field are derived by means of the optical Bloch equations based on the atomic density matrix elements, and the general properties of the average dissipative and dipole forces on a three-level atom in the linearly-polarized high-order Bessel beams （HBBs） are analysed. We find a resonant property （with two resonant peaks） of the dissipative force and a non-resonant property （with two pairs of non-resonant peaks） of the dipole force on the three-level atom, which are completely different from those on the two-level atom. Meanwhile we find a saturation effect of the average dissipative force in the HBB, which comes from the saturation of the upper-level population. Our study shows that the general expressions of the average dissipative and dipole forces on the three-level atom will be simplified to those of the two-level atom under the approximation of large detuning. Finally, we study the axial and azimuthal Doppler cooling of atoms in ID optical molasses composed of two counter-propagating HBBs and discuss the azimuthal influence of the HBB on the Doppler cooling limit. We also find that the Doppler limit of atoms in the molasses HBB is slightly below the conventional Doppler limit of hГ/（2kB） due to the orbital angular momentum lh of the HBB.

Optical power limiting of ultrashort hyper-Gaussian pulses in cascade three-level system

Propagation of strong femtosecond hyper-Gaussian pulses in a cascade three-level molecular system is studied by solving numerically the Maxwell–Bloch equations by the iterative predictor-corrector finite-difference time-domain method.Optical power limiting behavior induced by strong nonlinear two-photon absorption is observed for different orders of the femtosecond hyper-Gaussian pulses. Pulses of a higher order temporal profile are found to have a wider power range of optical limiting but a larger output saturation intensity. Both the output saturation value and the damage threshold of optical power limiting decrease with pulse duration increasing. The decrease of the pulse area along the pulse propagation is much slower than that obtained from the two-photon area theorem due to invalidity of the slowly varying amplitude approximation and the monochromatic field hypothesis.

Entropy squeezing for a V-type three-level atom interacting with a single-mode field and passing through the amplitude damping channel with weak measurement

The entropy squeezing of a V-type three-level atom interacting with a single-mode field and passing through the amplitude damping channel is investigated in detail. Our results show that when coupled to the single-mode field, the atom in appropriate initial states can not only generate obvious entropy squeezing but also keep in the optimal squeezing state,while passing through the amplitude damping channel, the atom can generate entropy squeezing under the control of the weak measurement. Besides, it is proved again that as a measurement method for atomic squeezing, the entropy squeezing is precise and effective. Therefore our work is instructive for experiments in preparing three-level system information resource with ultra-low quantum noise.

An improved SVPWM control algorithm for three-level inverter

In the traditional three-level space vector pulse width modulation(SVPWM)algorithm,the sector judgment is computationallycomplex since the sector is divided into triangles and hexagons.In addition,the switching frequency is high becausethe seven-segment switching sequence is adopted.For this reason,a new SVPWM control algorithm for three-level inverteris proposed,in which the sector judgment is simplified by dividing the sector into quasi hexagons?and the new four-segmentswitching sequence is adopted to reduce the switching frequency.Simulation results show that the total harmonic distortiongrows down with the switching frequency decreasing,moreover,the algorithm runtime is also decreased.

Model predictive flux control of permanent magnet synchronous motor driven by three-level inverter based on fine-division strategy

Aiming at the difficulty of setting the weight coefficient in the value function of model predictive torque control(MPTC)for permanent magnet synchronous motor(PMSM)driven by three-level inverter,a fine-division model predictive flux control(MPFC)method is proposed.First,establish a mathematical model between the motor torque and the stator flux linkage according to the mathematical equations of PMSM.Thus,the control of the motor torque and stator flux linkage in the MPTC is transformed into the control of a single stator flux linkage vector,omitting the cumbersome weight setting process in the traditional MPTC.The midpoint potential control strategy is proposed,which uses the characteristics of redundant small vectors to balance the midpoint potential.After that,a fine-division strategy is proposed,which effectively reduces the number of candidate vectors and the computational burden of the system.Finally,the proposed MPFC is compared with MPTC by simulation.The results show that the proposed fine-division MPFC effectively reduces the system calculation,and has the advantages of simple principle and better dynamic and steady-state control performance.The feasibility of the control strategy is verified.

A Modified Neutral-point Voltage Control Strategy for Three-level Inverters Based on Decomposition of Space Vector Diagram

Capacitor voltage imbalance is a significant problem for three-level inverters.Due to the mid-point modulation of these inverter topologies,the neutral point potential moves up or down depending on the neutral point current direction creating imbalanced voltages among the two capacitors.This imbalanced capacitor voltage causes imbalanced voltage stress among the semiconductor devices and causes increase output voltage and current harmonics.This paper introduces a modified voltage balancing strategy using two-level space vector modulation.By decomposing the three-level space vector diagram into two-level space vector diagram and redistributing the dwell times of the two-level zero space vectors,the modified voltage balancing method ensures minimal NP voltage ripple.Compared to the commonly used NP voltage control method(using 3L SVM[9]),the proposed modified NP voltage control method offers a slightly higher neutral-point voltage ripple and output voltage harmonics but,it has much lower switching loss,code size and execution time.

We observe the Autler-Townes splitting effect in a △-type quantum three-level system, using the lowest three levels of a SQUID-type Al/AlOx/Al transmon qubit embedded in a three-dimensional copper microwave cavity. A control tone at different strengths is applied in resonance with the transition between the first and second excited states, while the spectra between each of them and the ground state are probed by another microwave tone. The experimental result shows the difference between the two spectra, and fits well with the Lindblad master equation model.
