Abstract

We identify discrepancies between two published predictions of the resonance fluorescence from a two-level atom driven by a strong bichromatic field [J. Opt. Soc. Am. B [Formula Presented] 1163 (1991) and Phys. Rev. A [Formula Presented] 3092 (1993)]. These discrepancies are shown to arise from subtleties in extracting the time-averaged resonance fluorescence from the expansions used to solve the optical Bloch equations. We construct a solution to these equations that corrects the results of the latter reference and reconciles the two predictions. 5555 2002 The American Physical Society.
