Control, with a rf field, of photon emission times by a single molecule and its connection to laser-induced localization of an electron in a double well
We simulate an experiment in which a single molecule is simultaneously exposed to light resonating with a transition and to rf radiation. We show how the rf radiation can be used to control the statistical properties of the photon emission events (e.g., the time between successive photon emissions). This process is isomorphic with laser-induced localization of an electron in a semiconductor double well.
