Abstract

Photon counting statistics are explored, theoretically, from a pair of cavity modes coupled to the fluorescent transitions in a strongly-driven two-level atom. We show that the cavity modes acquire nonclassical photon statistics that are representative of dressed-state picture atomic transitions. In particular, the modes are shown to be antibunched, while simultaneously having a cross-correlation value greater than unity. Furthermore, we propose an implementation of the system with a nanofiber cavity QED system, based on a strongly-driven cesium atom.
