Reconstruction of quantum entanglement in cavity QED

Abstract

Summary form only given, as follows. The subject of state reconstruction has recently become a major field of study in quantum optics [see Special issue on Quantum state preparation and measurement, J. Mod Opt., 11/12, (1997), edited by W.P. Schleich and M.G. Raymer]. The quasiprobability functions and density matrices have been measured experimentally for single-mode running fields using the homodyne scheme. However, most of the earlier reconstruction schemes are for single-mode fields. In this presentation the author is interested in reconstruction of a two-mode entangled cavity field.

Reconstruction of an entangled state in cavity QED

M. S. Kim, G. S. Agarwal

We suggest a scheme to reconstruct a two-mode entangled state in cavity QED by using the interaction of a V-configuration three-level atom and by driving the cavity field. After the atomic interaction with the cavity fields, the probability of the atom being in its initial ground state is found to be directly related to the two-mode Wigner characteristic function. The Wigner function and the four-dimensional density-matrix elements can be obtained for the two-mode entangled field by simple transformations. We consider both the cases where two entangled modes are prepared in one cavity or in two spatially separated cavities.

RECENT PROGRESS IN RECONSTRUCTING QUANTUM STATES OF ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELDS

Zhi‐Ming Zhang

The reconstruction of quantum states of electromagnetic fields is an active research field in modern physics. This paper presents a brief review on this issue. Our review includes the theoretical proposals and experimental measurements on the reconstruction of quantum states of traveling fields and cavity fields. For traveling fields and cavity fields, we discuss the one-mode, two-mode, and multi-mode cases, respectively.

Time evolution of the variance of the field amplitude in cavity QED

Wade P. Smith, G. T. Foster, Joseph E. Reiner +2 more

Summary form only given. Reconstruction of quantum states of the electromagnetic field has become an important technique in quantum optics. Tomographic algorithms to reconstruct the Wigner function and direct density matrix measurement schemes both provide a full representation of a quantum state. We are interested in the time evolution of a cavity quantum electrodynamic (QED) system that, after a detected quantum fluctuation, regresses back to its steady state in a dynamical way. We would like to follow the evolution of the state in Hilbert space as it returns back to equilibrium. Few systems in quantum optics have time scales where present day digitizing electronics can capture the signals necessary to reconstruct the state evolution. Our cavity QED system does.

Characterizing quantum microwave radiation and its entanglement with superconducting qubits using linear detectors

Christopher Eichler, Deniz Bozyigit, Andreas J. Wallraff

Recent progress in the development of superconducting circuits has enabled the realization of interesting sources of nonclassical radiation at microwave frequencies. Here, we discuss field quadrature detection schemes for the experimental characterization of itinerant microwave photon fields and their entanglement correlations with stationary qubits. In particular, we present joint state tomography methods of a radiation field mode and a two-level system. Including the case of finite quantum detection efficiency, we relate measured photon field statistics to generalized quasiprobability distributions and statistical moments for one-channel and two-channel detection. We also present maximum-likelihood methods to reconstruct density matrices from measured field quadrature histograms. Our theoretical investigations are supported by the presentation of experimental data, for which microwave quantum fields beyond the single-photon and Gaussian level have been prepared and reconstructed.

Quantum state engineering and reconstruction in cavity QED: An analytical approach

Pavel Lougovski

The models of a strongly-driven micromaser and a one-atom laser are developed. Their analytical solutions are obtained by means of phase space techniques. It is shown how to exploit the model of a one-atom laser for simultaneous generation and monitoring of the decoherence of the atom-field "Schrödinger cat" states. The similar machinery applied to the problem of the generation of the maximally-entangled states of two atoms placed inside an optical cavity permits its analytical solution. The steady-state solution of the problem exhibits a structure in which the two-atom maximally-entangled state correlates with the vacuum state of the cavity. As a consequence, it is demonstrated that the atomic maximally-entangled state, depending on a coupling regime, can be produced via a single or a sequence of no-photon measurements. The question of the implementation of a quantum memory device using a dispersive interaction between the collective internal ground state of an atomic ensemble and two orthogonal modes of a cavity is addressed. The problem of quantum state reconstruction in the context of cavity quantum electrodynamics is considered. The optimal operational definition of the Wigner function of a cavity field is worked out. It is based on the Fresnel transform of the atomic invertion of a probe atom. The general integral transformation for the Wigner function reconstruction of a particle in an arbitrary symmetric potential is derived.
