Abstract

Abstract The realization of the strong coupling regime is requisite for implementing quantum information tasks. Here, a method for enhancing the atom–field coupling in highly dissipative coupled cavities is proposed. By introducing parametric squeezing into the primary cavity, which is only virtually excited under specific parametric conditions, coupling enhancement between the atom and the auxiliary cavity is realized for appropriate squeezing parameters. This enables the system to be robust against large cavity decay and atomic spontaneous emission. The observation of vacuum Rabi oscillations show that the originally weakly coupled system can be enhanced into an effective strong coupling regime.

Indirect light-matter interaction in dissipative coupled cavities

We examine the dynamics of evolution for an ensemble of three-level Λ atoms localized in a coupled cavity. In this scheme, when many atoms interact with one of the cavities, we observe Rabi oscillations between an atom and the other cavity. We show strong coupling between the ensemble and cavity is not necessary. The effective coupling can be improved by increasing the number of atoms. When the amplitude of the classical field is not equal to the photon hopping rate, for zero detunings, we achieve resonance and observe oscillations. The excited state of the atoms in one cavity may be eliminated hence suppressing atomic spontaneous emissions with an increase in the number of atoms. The optimal process range of hopping rate and classical field amplitude are found to optimize performance for a given parametric condition.

Exponentially Enhanced Light-Matter Interaction, Cooperativities, and Steady-State Entanglement Using Parametric Amplification

Wei Qin, Adam Miranowicz, Fuli Li +3 more

We propose an experimentally feasible method for enhancing the atom-field coupling as well as the ratio between this coupling and dissipation (i.e., cooperativity) in an optical cavity. It exploits optical parametric amplification to exponentially enhance the atom-cavity interaction and, hence, the cooperativity of the system, with the squeezing-induced noise being completely eliminated. Consequently, the atom-cavity system can be driven from the weak-coupling regime to the strong-coupling regime for modest squeezing parameters, and even can achieve an effective cooperativity much larger than 100. Based on this, we further demonstrate the generation of steady-state nearly maximal quantum entanglement. The resulting entanglement infidelity (which quantifies the deviation of the actual state from a maximally entangled state) is exponentially smaller than the lower bound on the infidelities obtained in other dissipative entanglement preparations without applying squeezing. In principle, we can make an arbitrarily small infidelity. Our generic method for enhancing atom-cavity interaction and cooperativities can be implemented in a wide range of physical systems, and it can provide diverse applications for quantum information processing.

Enhancement of coherent dipole coupling between two atoms via squeezing a cavity mode

Yan Wang, Chuang Li, Elijah M. Sampuli +3 more

We propose a theoretical method to enhance the coherent dipole coupling between two atoms in an optical cavity via parametrically squeezing the cavity mode. In the present scheme, conditions for coherent coupling are derived in detail and diverse dynamics of the system can be obtained by regulating system parameters. In the presence of environmental noise, an auxiliary squeezed field is employed to suppress and even completely eliminate the additional noise induced by squeezing. In addition, we demonstrate that our scheme enables the effective suppression of atomic spontaneous emission. The results in our investigation could be used for diverse applications in quantum technologies.

Dynamics and enhancement of nonlinear coupling via squeezing a cavity mode

Yang Gu, Zhong-Ju Liu, Tong-Rui Cui +3 more

Abstract We propose a scheme to enhance nonlinear coupling between a two-mode optical cavity via parametric squeezing. Employing a two-mode squeezed vacuum state, we derive an effective Hamiltonian that reveals enhancement of nonlinear coupling. Numerical simulations demonstrate that the enhanced squeezing will cause the oscillation between the two-mode photon numbers of the system. The dissipation of the system is also considered, that the dissipation has a positive effect on the preparation of steady state via parametric squeezing. The result in our investigation could provide an effective simulation platform for the realization of quantum information process.

Squeezed Optomechanics with Phase-Matched Amplification and Dissipation

Xin‐You Lü, Ying Wu, J. R. Johansson +3 more

We investigate the nonlinear interaction between a squeezed cavity mode and a mechanical mode in an optomechanical system (OMS) that allows us to selectively obtain either a radiation-pressure coupling or a parametric-amplification process. The squeezing of the cavity mode can enhance the interaction strength into the single-photon strong-coupling regime, even when the OMS is originally in the weak-coupling regime. Moreover, the noise of the squeezed mode can be suppressed completely by introducing a broadband-squeezed vacuum environment that is phase matched with the parametric amplification that squeezes the cavity mode. This proposal offers an alternative approach to control the OMS using a squeezed cavity mode, which should allow single-photon quantum processes to be implemented with currently available optomechanical technology. Potential applications range from engineering single-photon sources to nonclassical phonon states.

Cavity QED with atomic mirrors

Darrick E. Chang, Liang Jiang, Alexey Vyacheslavovich Gorshkov +1 more

A promising approach to merge atomic systems with scalable photonics has emerged recently, which consists of trapping cold atoms near tapered nanofibers. Here, we describe a novel technique to achieve strong, coherent coupling between a single atom and photon in such a system. Our approach makes use of collective enhancement effects, which allow a lattice of atoms to form a high-finesse cavity within the fiber. We show that a specially designated 'impurity' atom within the cavity can experience strongly enhanced interactions with single photons in the fiber. Under realistic conditions, a 'strong coupling' regime can be reached, wherein it becomes feasible to observe vacuum Rabi oscillations between the excited impurity atom and a single cavity quantum. This technique can form the basis for a scalable quantum information network using atom–nanofiber systems.
