Realization of sub-Planck Structure from Compass States in Time-Frequency Domain

Ludmiła Praxmeyer, Chih‐Cheng Chen, Popo Yang +2 more

A sub-Planck structure from Compass states, composited by four coherent states in superposition, is reported experimentally through the correspondence between Wigner distribution function and frequency-resolved optical gating (FROG) measurement. Demonstration on the chessboard-like patterns with a time-bandwidth product smaller than that of a transform-limited pulse is realized through simultaneously sufficient time and frequency separations among optical pulses. The sub-Planck structure in the interference pattern from Compass states not only manifests itself as a generalized Schödinger's cat state, but also provides the platform to exploit quantum metrology and quantum information processing through ultrafast optics.

Mesoscopic superposition of states with sub-Planck structures in phase space

G. S. Agarwal, Pradyumna K. Pathak

We propose the cavity quantum electrodynamics method, using dispersive interaction between atoms and a high-quality cavity to realize the mesoscopic superposition of coherent states that would exhibit sub-Planck structures in phase space, i.e., the structures at a scale smaller than the Plank's constant $(\ensuremath{\hbar})$. These structures are direct signatures of quantum coherence and are formed as a result of interference between the two superposed cat states. In particular we focus on a superposition involving four coherent states. We show interferences in the conditional measurements involving two atoms.
