Description
Summary:We study the emission spectra of the dissipative Rabi and Jaynes-Cummings models in the non-Markovian and ultrastrong coupling regimes. We have derived a polaron-transformed Nakajima-Zwanzig master equation (PTNZE) to calculate the emission spectra, which eliminates the well-known limitations of the Markovian approximation and the standard second-order perturbation. Using the time-dependent variational approach with the multiple Davydov ansatz as a benchmark, the PTNZE is found to yield accurate emission spectra in certain ultrastrong coupling regimes where the standard second-order Nakajima-Zwanzig master equation breaks down. It is shown that the emission spectra of the dissipative Rabi and Jaynes-Cummings models are, in general, asymmetric under various initial conditions. Direct comparisons of spectra for the two models illustrate the essential role of the qubit-cavity counter-rotating term and the spectral features under different qubit-cavity coupling strengths and system initial conditions.
