对三能级原子自发辐射光子的探测，其中两个上能级由经典的驻留光场驱动，产生关于原子相对于驱动场节点的质心位置的信息。我们给出了系统的纯态处理，并表明测量导致了系统波函数的减少，这表现为原子的局域化。
Abstract The detection of a spontaneously emitted photon from a threelevel atom, in which the two upper levels are driven by a classical standing light field, yields information about the centre-of-mass position of the atom relative to the nodes of the driving field. We present a pure state treatment of the system and show that the measurement leads to a reduction of the system's wavefunction, which manifests itself in a localization of the atom.
