Scheme for Direct Measurement of the Wigner Function via Resonant Interaction

Zheng Shi-Biao

We propose a scheme for direct measurement of the Wigner function for a cavity mode. In the scheme the cavity field resonantly interacts with an atomic ensemble. Under certain conditions, the state of the cavity mode is transferred to the atomic system. After a displacement the measurement of the parity of the atomic excitation number directly yields the Wigner function of the initial state of the cavity mode.

Proposal for Direct Measurement of the Wigner Function of a Cavity Field via Raman Coupling

Zheng Shi-Biao, Xiwen Zhu

We propose a scheme for the reconstruction of a cavity field state. In the scheme the cavity field is first displaced by a microwave source, and then couples with a three-level Λ-type atom in a Raman manner. After an appropriate interaction time the measurement of the difference between the probabilities of the atom being in two ground states directly yields the Wigner function for the field state. The scheme can be easily generalized to measure the Wigner function of an entangled state of two spatially separated single-mode cavities.

Scheme for direct measurement of Wigner function in two-mode cavity QED driven by classical fields

Huai‐Zhi Wu, Zhen‐Biao Yang, Shi‐Biao Zheng

We propose a scheme for the direct measurement of Wigner function in two-mode cavity QED. The atoms are sent to resonantly interact with two orthogonally polarized cavity modes in the presence of strong classical field. The probability of measuring the atom in the ground state directly gives the useful information of the cavity field. This method can be used for quantum non-demolition measurement of the photon number.
