摘要
We theoretically describe a pump-probe scheme for detecting the optical Stark effect on two-level atoms with a fully quantized pump field. The probe absorption reflects the photon statistics of the pump field for both the single-atom and multiatom case. Nonclassical features, without counterpart in the single-atom case appear in the multiatom absorption and result in strong variations bf the absorption amplitude and nonclassical gain or absorption.
