Retrieval of photon blockade effect in the dispersive Jaynes-Cummings model

We propose a reliable scheme to recover the conventional photon blockade effect in the dispersive Jaynes-Cummings model, which describes a two-level atom coupled to a single-mode cavity field in the large-detuning regime. This is achieved by introducing a transversal driving to the atom and then photonic nonlinearity is obtained. The eigenenergy spectrum of the system is derived analytically and the photon blockade effect is confirmed by numerically calculating the photon-number distributions and equal-time second-order correlation function of the cavity field in the presence of system dissipations. We find that the conventional photon blockade effect can be recovered at proper atomic and cavity-field drivings. This work will provide a method to generate the conventional photon blockade effect in the dispersively coupled quantum optical systems.
