Abstract
We have studied the behavior of two-levellike Ba atoms driven by a strong near-resonant excitation field and coupled to a cavity modified frequency-dependent vacuum reservoir.1,2 Several interesting effects are observed. By tuning the cavity, it is found that the steady state level of atomic excitation can be increased or decreased relative to the free-space norm.
