Abstract
We have considered the steady-state resonance fluorescence spectrum fo r a beam of two-level atoms, interacting with a strong driving field w ith a finite bandwidth inside a cavity, The competitive effects of cav ity losses and the finite bandwidth of the intense driving laser beam on the resonance fluorescence spectrum have been discussed. Our result s show that the usual three-peaked resonance fluorescence spectrum sta rts merging back into the central peak as the bandwidth of the driving field increases. Moreover, the asymmetry introduced by the detuning o f the driving field having a finite bandwidth is also affected by the cavity losses.
