Two-dimensional atom localization via a combination of the standing-wave and Gaussian fields

The localization of atom is studied in two-dimensional (2D) in a four-level V-type atomic system by using the Gaussian field. The atom localization is investigated through the absorption spectrum of the weak probe field inside two orthogonal standing-wave fields. We consider three hypotheses for the interaction between the atom and fields (standing-wave and Gaussian fields), each hypothesis is considered individually. We obtain the expression for the first-order approximation of the absorption of the probe field mathematically for the hypothesis (I). The Gaussian field parameter plays an important role in the precision of the atom localization. The 2D atom localization can be dependent on the detuning of the probe field (resonance and off-resonance), the Rabi frequencies and the phase shifts.
