Generation of motional cat states for a trapped ion in a cavity

Liu Xiang, Mao-Fa Fang

Abstract

Beyond the Lamb-Dicke limit, we propose a simple scheme for generating Schrödinger cat states of the motion of a trapped two-level ion interacting with a quantized light field in a single-mode cavity.

Schrodinger-cat states and entanglement in cavity QED with trapped ions

F. L. Semião, A. Vidiella-Barranco

We propose a scheme to generate a particular kind of tripartite entangled states using a single two-level trapped ion coupled to a quantized monomode electromagnetic field within an optical cavity. The resulting state involves motional Schr\\"odinger-cat states of the trapped ion, its internal electronic states, and Fock states of the cavity field. By means of a measurement of the internal state of the ion, it is also possible to generate either entangled bipartite states involving light and motion or single motional Schr\\"odinger-cat states. Our proposal is based on a previously introduced intensity dependent Hamiltonian [Phys. Rev. A 66, 063403 (2002)] for a trapped ion in a cavity.

Preparation of motional cat states for trapped ions using a standing wave in strong excitation

Li-Xiang Li, Guang‐Can Guo

We propose a scheme to generate cat states for trapped ions using a standing wave in both the strong excitation regime and the Lamb-Dicke limit. A single strong standing-wave laser, exciting the ion for a short time, will leave the ion in an entangled state. After a measurement of the internal state, the external state will collapse to an odd or even coherent state.

Effective Generation of Cat and Kitten States

Magdalena Stobińska, Gerard J Milburn, Krzysztof Wódkiewicz

We present an effective method of coherent state superposition (cat state) generation using single trapped ion in a Paul trap. The method is experimentally feasible for coherent states with amplitude α ≤ 2 using available technology. It works both in and beyond the Lamb-Dicke regime.
