Abstract

The density and spatial modulation of field modes should become better controllable in structures that exhibit photonic band gaps (PBGs)1.

Nonclassical field dynamics in photonic band structures: Atomic-beam resonant interaction with a spatially periodic field mode

Boris Sherman, Gershon Kurizki, A. Kadyshevitch

We consider the quantum electrodynamics of an atom uniformly moving through a single spatially periodic field mode. The shape and periodicity of the field modulation can be designed by an appropriate choice of a defect in a periodic structure that possesses a forbidden spectral band (a ``photonic band gap''). This design of the periodic modulation can improve our control over the evolution and properties (e.g., photon statistics) of nonclassical ``Schr\"odinger-cat'' states of the field, generated by resonant interaction with the atom.

Quantum information processing in localized modes of light within a photonic band-gap material

Nipun Vats, Terry Rudolph

The single photon occupation of a localized field mode within an engineered network of defects in a photonic band-gap (PBG) material is proposed as a unit of quantum information (qubit). Qubit operations are mediated by optically-excited atoms interacting with these localized states of light as the atoms traverse the connected void network of the PBG structure. We describe conditions under which this system can have independent qubits with controllable interactions and very low decoherence, as required for quantum computation.
