Trapping State in a System of Single Three-level Trapped Ion Driven by External Fields

Wang Zhong-Jie, Feng Chen

Published Jun 1, 2007• 12 citations
Publisher

Abstract

We investigate the interaction of a single three-level trapped ion with two laser beams. By applying a unitary transformation and a small rotating transformation, an exact solution to this quantum system is obtained without performing the Lamb–Dicke approximation, and the trapping state is observed.

An analytical solution to the nonlinear model forNtrapped ions driven by a single laser field

Z J Wang

We have studied the nonlinear model for interaction of N ions in a trap with a laser beam. By applying two successive unitary transformations, this nonlinear quantum system can be transformed into the multi-levels Jayness–Cummings model. In the end, we can obtain an analytical solution to the two-ion system without performing the Lamb–Dicke approximation, and observe the super-revival phenomenon.

Unitary transformation approach for the trapped ion dynamics

We present a method of treating the problem of the interaction of a single trapped ion with laser beams based on successive applications of unitary transformations onto the Hamiltonian. This allows the diagonalization of the Hamiltonian, by means of recursive relations, without performing the Lamb-Dicke approximation.

Motional macroscopic quantum superposition states of a trapped three-level ion

Özgür Esat Müstecaplıoğlu

We investigate quantum dynamical properties of a trapped three-level ion interacting with two laser beams in $\ensuremath{\Lambda}$ configuration. A unitary transformation method is developed to study the interaction of the ion with its vibrational phonons, quanta of ion's own center-of-mass motion. Under certain conditions on laser parameters, this interaction is shown to be unitarily equivalent to two-phonon cascade transitions. Complicated temporal behaviors of level populations and mean number of phonons are described clearly by identifying dynamical variables of the cascade model as building blocks. Furthermore, analyzing quantum states of vibrational phonons by Husimi-$Q$ function, we find that at times, determined by the underlying cascade dynamics, two- and three-component macroscopic quantum superposition states can be obtained depending on the Lamb-Dicke parameter and the initial conditions of the system. A wide range of initial conditions and experimental parameters are discussed using both exact and analytical solutions. Alternative routes to reach the target states are found.
