Abstract 'Motional narrowing'refers to the striking phenomenon where the resonance line of
a system coupled to a reservoir becomes narrower on increasing the reservoir fluctuation. A …

A two-level system that is coupled to a high-finesse cavity in the Purcell regime exhibits a
giant optical nonlinearity due to the saturation of the two-level system at very low intensities …
