摘要: The fully quantum-electrodynamical model of a two-level atom interacting with single-cavity mode predicts an atomic evolution whose form is dictated by the discrete nature field energy and its statistical distribution. We demonstrate that revivals excitation which are signature quantum strongly affected dissipation even when damping hardly affects underlying Rabi oscillations.
