Abstract
In this communication we introduce a new model of Hamiltonian which represents the interaction between a two-level atom and two electromagnetic fields injected simultaneously within a cavity. By using the canonical transformation the model can be regarded as a generalization of the Jaynes-Cummings model (JCM). The relationship between the original and new states has been established, and the exact expression for the wave function in Schrodinger picture is obtained. The atomic inversion and the degree of entanglement are considered. We find that the revival time is different from what has been observed in the JCM case. copyright 2002 Elsevier Science B.V.
