Abstract
Treating the weak-sideband fields quantum mechanically, we study the effects of quantum noise on amplitudemodulation and frequency-modulation spectroscopy of two-level media. Our analysis demonstrates that quantum noise affects not only the intensities of the modulation sidebands but also their relative phase, which leads in particular to a quantum limit for frequency-modulation spectroscopy.
