Abstract

Abstract We demonstrate the generation of two-mode continuous-variable (CV) entanglement in a V-type three-level atom trapped in a doubly resonant cavity using a microwave field driving a hyperfine transition between two upper excited states. By numerically simulating the dynamics of this system, our results show that the CV entanglement with large mean number of photons can be generated even in presence of the atomic relaxation and cavity losses. More interestingly, it is found that the intensity and period of entanglement can be enhanced significantly with the increasing of the atomic relaxation due to the existence of the perfect spontaneously generated interference between two atomic decay channels. Moreover, we also show that the entanglement can be controlled efficiently by tuning the intensity of spontaneously generated interference and the detuning of the cavity field.

Generation of continuous-variable entanglement in a two-mode four-level single-atom driven by microwave

Song Ming-yu, WU Yao-de

In this paper, we discuss the generation and evolution of continuous-variable entanglement in a two-mode single-atom laser, where the atomic coherence is induced by two classical microwave fields, which drive the corresponding fine atomic transitions. The results show that the intensity of the microwave field can influence effectively the entanglement properties of the cavity field. In addition, our numerical results also show that the intensity and the period of entanglement between the two cavity modes as well as the total mean photon number of the cavity field can be increased synchronously by adjusting the corresponding frequency detuning.

Continuous-Variable Entanglement Generation from a Four-State Atom under Raman Excitation

Ting-Ting Zha, Aixi Chen, Wen‐Xing Yang

We investigate the generation and the evolution of continuous-variable (CV) entanglement from a laser-driven four-state atom inside a doubly resonant cavity under Raman excitation. Two transitions in the four-state atom independently interact with the two cavity modes, while two other transitions are driven by coupling laser fields. By including the atomic relaxation as well as cavity losses, we show that the CV entanglement with large mean number of photons can be generated in our scheme. We also show that the intensity of the coupling laser fields can influence effectively the entanglement period of the cavity field. Different from the conventional resonant excitation scheme where zero one-photon detuning are required, it is found that the intensity and period of entanglement between the two cavity modes as well as the total mean photon number of the cavity field can be adjusted by properly modulating the frequency detuning.

This paper investigate the generation and evolution of continuous-variable entanglement in a two-mode single-atom laser, where the atomic coherence is induced by two classical laser fields (pump and coupling field) driving the corresponding atom transitions. It is found that the intensity of the coupling field can influence effectively the entanglement period of the cavity field. More importantly, our numerical results also show that the intensity and period of entanglement between the two cavity modes as well as the total mean photon number of the cavity field can be increased synchronously by adjusting the corresponding frequency detuning.

Interference-induced enhancement of field entanglement from an intracavity three-level V -type atom

Huatang Tan, Hongxing Xia, Gao‐xiang Li

We investigate the generation of two-mode-entangled light from a laser-driven three-level $\mathbsf{V}$-type atom inside a cavity by taking into account spontaneously generated quantum interference between two atomic decay channels. We show that under some conditions, the system can reduce to a nondegenerate parametric amplifier which is responsible for the entanglement between the two cavity modes. Compared to the case without the quantum interference, it is found that the entanglement of the cavity field can be significantly enhanced by the interference when the relative phase of the two pumping lasers $\ensuremath{\delta}\ensuremath{\phi}=\ensuremath{\pi}$.

Continuous-variable entanglement via an incoherent pump in a microwave-driven Λ-type single-atom laser

Xiangying Hao, Xin‐You Lü, Li Liu +1 more

We investigate the generation and evolution of continuous-variable (CV) entanglement via an incoherent pump in a single-atom cavity electrodynamics (CQED) system. The atomic coherence in such a Λ configuration is introduced by driving the lower two levels with a strong classical field of Rabi frequency Ω m . It is shown that the intensity of the driving field can influence effectively the period of the entanglement between the two cavity modes.

Pure-state entanglement and spontaneous emission quenching in a V-type atom–cavity system

Jiong Cheng, Yan Han, Ling Zhou

We investigate continuous variable entanglement produced by a V-type atom inside a cavity. Under a strong classical driven condition, we derive an effective Hamiltonian by going beyond the secular approximation. In the momentum representation, we provide a pure-state solution of a two-mode field for the effective Hamiltonian. In the presence of cavity losses and atomic relaxation, especially by taking into account spontaneously generated quantum interference between two atomic decay channels, we show that complete quenching of spontaneous emission is possible under appropriate conditions.
