Th edetection fo photons emitted from a single molecule under the influence of electromagnetic radiation is considered.Utilizing a generating function fromalism,we derive several exact results for the statistics of such emittedphotons within the framework of the temporally modulated optical BlochEquations.Addtionally,it is shown how these results reduce to previously obtainedlimiting behaviors.An appealing feature of this formulation is the inclusion of both photon bunching and anti-bunching effects within a single theoretical framework that is well suited for numerical analysis.Several examples are considered to demonstrate the feasibility of the approach in calculations.In most cases,these results verify known phenomena.In one case,were report a result that was missed byrior approximate treatments.This new effect cneters aroudn the fact that a chromophore will display anti-bunching behavior in thelimt of fast modulation of the resonant absorption frequency.
