Abstract
We investigate the effect of external white noise to resolved-sideband cool ing of a single trapped ion. By studying the equilibrium state of the ion b eyond the Lamb-Dicke limit, we find population inversion between electronic -vibrational states. Furthermore, we study the effect of gain on the emitte d radiation of the system. (C) 1999 Published by Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
