Generation of two-photon EPR and W states

Abstract

In this paper we present a scheme for generation of two-photon EPR and W states in the cavity QED context. The scheme requires only one three-level Rydberg atom and two or three cavities. The atom is sent to interact with cavities previously prepared in vacuum states, via two-photon process. An appropriate choice of the interaction times one obtains the mentioned state with maximized fidelities. These specific times and the values of success probability and fidelity are discussed.

Photon-number-state generation with a single two-level atom in a cavity: a proposal

P. Domokos, M. Brune, J. M. Raimond +2 more

A single two-level atom can be used to prepare an arbitrary photon number state (Fock state) in a high Q cavity . The atom undergoes a controlled succession of interactions with two cavity modes. One of them contains a coherent field. The atom transfers photons one by one from this field to the initially empty second mode. The scheme can be extended to prepare a quantum superposition of the vacuum with a Fock state, a highly non-classical situation. We discuss the feasibility of the experiment with our present Rydberg-atom cavity QED set-up.

A scheme for generating two-photon and three-photon states of a cavity field using resonant single atoms

Shi-Biao Zheng

We propose a scheme for generating two-photon states for a cavity field. In the scheme the cavity initially contains a small coherent or thermal field. Then a resonant two-level atom is sent through the cavity. After an appropriate interaction time the atom is state-selectively measured, which may collapse the cavity field onto a two-photon state. A three-photon state of rather high fidelity can also be generated with a single atom.

Generation of four-photon W state via cavity QED

Zhong Zhi-Rong

This paper proposes an alternative scheme for generating four-photon W state via cavity QED. The scheme bases on the resonant interaction of a λ-type three level atom with two bimodal cavities. The detection of atom collapses the cavity to the desired state. Comparing with previous schemes, the advantage of this scheme is that the interaction time can be greatly shortened since it uses the resonant interaction between atom and cavities. Moreover, the proposed scheme is more experimentally feasible than the previous ones.

Simple scheme for generating an n -qubit W state in cavity QED

Zhi Jiao Deng, Mang Feng, K. Gao

A simple scheme is proposed to generate an $n$-qubit $W$ state in cavity QED. Conditioned on no photon leakage from the cavity, the $n$-qubit $W$ state can be generated by resonant interaction between atoms and the cavity if the cavity is initially prepared in the single-photon state and all the atoms are in the ground states. We check the time evolution of the system involving decay, and show that, since the required interaction time is very short, with present cavity QED techniques, the success probability of our scheme is almost unity.

Schemes for generating the cluster states in microwave cavity QED

XuBo Zou, Wolfgang M. Mathis

We propose two experimental schemes to generate the cluster states in the context of microwave cavity quantum electrodynamics (QED). In the first scheme to prepare many cavities into the cluster states, we encode the vacuum state and one-photon state of the microwave cavity as the logic zero and one of the qubits. The second scheme is to prepare many atoms into the cluster states, where qubits are represented by the states of Rydberg atoms. Both schemes require the resonant atom-cavity interaction so that the quantum dynamics operates at a high speed, which is important in view of decoherence.

Method for generating maximally entangled states of multiple three-level atoms in cavity QED

Guang-Sheng Jin, Shu‐Shen Li, Songlin Feng +1 more

We propose a scheme to generate maximally entangled states (MESs) of multiple three-level atoms in microwave cavity QED based on the resonant atom-cavity interaction. In the scheme, multiple three-level atoms initially in their ground states are sequently sent through two suitably prepared cavities. After a process of appropriate atom-cavity interaction, a subsequent measurement on the second cavity field projects the atoms onto the MESs. The practical feasibility of this method is also discussed.

A simple scheme is proposed to generate an nnn-qubit WWW state in cavity QED. Conditioned on no photon leakage from the cavity, the nnn-qubit WWW state can be generated by resonant interaction between atoms and the cavity if the cavity is initially prepared in the single-photon state and all the atoms are in the ground states. We check the time evolution of the system involving decay, and show that, since the required interaction time is very short, with present cavity QED techniques, the success probability of our scheme is almost unity.
