Emission of single photons in the weak coupling regime of the Jaynes Cummings model

Abstract

A recently proposed variant of an unconventional photon blockade scheme is studied for a single emitter weakly coupled to a resonator mode. By controlling two weak coherent fields driving the emitter and the resonator mode, a strongly nonclassical output field is obtained, which is not only antibunched, but has vanishing higher photon number coincidences. For a given set of system parameters, the frequencies and strengths of the driving fields that yield such an output are given.
