Large Detuning Interaction Between a Paul-Trapped Ion and a standing Wave Laser

Abstract

An ultracold two-level ion which stays at its internal ground state, experiencing the standing wave of a large detuning laser in a Paul trap, has been studied in the Lamb–Dicke limit and near the weak excitation regime, with full consideration of the time dependence of the trapping potential.

An ultracold two-level ion experiencing the standing wave of a resonant laser in a Paul trap is investigated in the Lamb-Dicke limit and weak excitation regime, with full consideration of the time-dependence of the trapping potential. The analytical forms of the wave functions of the system can be described with our approach, and the time evolution of the pseudo-energy of the system as well as the squeezing property of the quadrature components is studied in comparison with the treatment of harmonic oscillator model.

Micro-motion effect of a trapped ultra-cold ion in a standing-wave laser

In the absence of the requirements of the Lamb-Dicke limit and rotating wave approximation, we semi-classically investigate the dynamics of a trapped ultra-cold ion in the standing-wave laser, with the consideration of the time-dependent potential and pseudo-potential of the Paul trap. The specific calculations show that the larger the Lamb-Dicke parameter η and the Rabi frequency Ω, the greater the difference between the dynamics in the time-dependent potential and the pseudo-potential.

Exact solution of a trapped ultracold ion interacting with a standing wave laser without rotating wave approximation

Mang Feng, Xiwen Zhu, Ximing Fang +2 more

In coherent state representation and in the absence of rotating wave approximation, the interaction between a standing wave laser and a trapped ultracold ion within the Lamb-Dicke limit, expanded to the second-order term of the Lamb-Dicke parameter, can be solved analytically by series expansion technique. It can be seen that, for some particular detunings, the eigenenergies of the system can be exactly obtained and the eigenfunctions, presented as series forms, are a superposition of displaced Fock states and displaced squeezed states. Making use of our solution, some particular nonclassical states could be prepared.

Continued fraction solution to the Raman interaction of a trapped ultracold ion with two travelling wave lasers

Mang Feng

Raman interaction of a trapped ultracold ion with two travelling wave lasers has been used extensively in ion-trap experiments. We solve this interaction in the absence of a rotating wave approximation (RWA) by a continued fraction, without considering the restriction of the Lamb-Dicke limit and the weak excitation regime. Some interesting characteristics of the ion-trap system, particularly for the ion outside the weak excitation regime are found. Finally, a comparison of our results with the solution under the RWA is made.

Continued Fraction Approach to the Solution of a Trapped Ultracold Ion Interacting with a Standing Wave Laser without Rotating Wave Approximation

Feng Mang, Zhu XiWen, Yong Li +2 more

In coherent state representation and in the absence of rotating wave approximation, we present an approach to solve the interaction of a trapped ultracold ion with a standing wave laser by a continued fraction, within the Lamb–Dicke limit and the low excitation regime. It is shown that, the eigen-energies as well as the coefficients of the series of the eigenfunction can be obtained rapidly from the continued fraction.

Dynamics of the interaction between a trapped ultracold ion and a standing wave laser without rotating wave approximation

Jiang Yu

In an interaction representation, we study the dynamics of the interaction between a trapped ultracold ion and a standing wave laser within the Lanb Dicke limit. As the rotating wave approximation is not introduced the ions motion becomes more and more chaotic with the increase of the Lamb Dicke parameter and Rabi frequency. Finally, we make a comparison of our results with those under the rotating wave approximation.
