Exact analytical results for a two-level system driven by a pulse with Lorentzian frequency and sub-Lorentzian amplitude modulations

Abstract We investigate the dynamics of a two-level quantum system driven by a laser pulse characterized by Lorentzian frequency and sub-Lorentzian amplitude modulations. Complete analytical solutions, expressed via confluent Heun functions, are derived. Our analysis reveals that explicit exact analytical solutions exist under infinite sets of specific parameter conditions. The effects of modulation parameters and initial conditions on the final transition probabilities are examined analytically and numerically. Furthermore, the method is demonstrated to be directly applicable to two closely related models with Lorentzian pulses.
