杰恩斯-卡明斯模型。圆圈内展示了光子 的发射 与吸收
杰恩斯-卡明斯模型 (Jaynes–Cummings model (JCM))是一个量子光学 的理论模型。 这是一个描述双态系统 和量化光腔 (optical cavity)交互作用的模型,这种交互作用和光子的存在与否无关(在电磁辐射能造成光子自发性的放射 与吸收 )。它主要被运用在原子物理学 、量子光学、固态量子信息电路的理论与实验上。

{\displaystyle {\begin{smallmatrix}H_{0}={\hat {H}}_{\text{field}}+{\hat {H}}_{\text{atom}}\end{smallmatrix}}}
