The deterministic generation of photons by cavity quantum electrodynamics

HERBERT WALTHER

Abstract The paper reviews the work on cavity quantum electrodynamics performed in our laboratory using the one‐atom maser and the single ion trap laser. Furthermore a brief survey on other cavity quantum electrodynamic experiments using single atoms is given in order to show the large variety of problems which can be investigated with this kind of systems.

Light–matter interaction in free space

Gerd Leuchs, Markus Sondermann

We review recent experimental advances in the field of efficient coupling of single atoms and light in free space. Furthermore, a comparison of efficient free space coupling and strong coupling in cavity quantum electrodynamics (QED) is given. Free space coupling does not allow for observing oscillatory exchange between the light field and the atom which is the characteristic feature of strong coupling in cavity QED. Like cavity QED, free space QED does, however, offer full switching of the light field, a 180° phase shift conditional on the presence of a single atom as well as 100% absorption probability of a single photon by a single atom. Furthermore, free space cavity QED comprises the interaction with a continuum of modes.
