Abstract

Starting from the Jaynes-Cummings (J-C) model describing the interaction of a trapped ion with a standing-wave laser field, we derive the interaction Hamiltonian on the nonlinear J-C model of the trapped ion excitated resonantly with 1-quantum vibrational mode. After solving the time-dependent states of this model, we study the evolution of population inversion for the ion numerically. It is shown that the period of the quantum collapse and revival of the population inversionis related with the Lamb-Dick parameter and the position of the ion in the standing-wave laser field. With the increasing of the parameter, it will decrease the period of the collapse and revival. When moving the ion from the node of the standing-wave laser to the antinode, the period of the collapse and revival becomes longer.

Entropy evolution of the internal and external degree of freedom of a trapped ion in standing wave laser

Zhong Wang

Starting from the Jaynes-Cummings (J-C) model describing interaction of a trapped ion with a standing-wave laser field, we derive the interaction Hamiltonian on the nonlinear J-C model of the trapped ion excitated resonantly with 1-quantum vibrational mode. After solving the time-dependent states of this model,the entropy evolution of the ion are investigated numerically related with Lamb-Dick parameter,the position of the ion in the standing-wave laser field and the initial number of phonon. It is shown that the entropy evolution exhibit nonperiodicity vibration. With the increasing of the parameter, it will increase the frequency of the vibration,therefore the less time of disentanglement between the internal and external degrees of freedom of a trapped ion. When moving the ion from the node of the standing-wave laser to the antinode,the frequency of the vibration becomes less,the longer time of the disentanglement between the internal and external degrees of freedom. With the more initial number of phonon , the entropy evolution of the ion is similar to the field entropy evolution of Jaynes-Cummings model, and the vibration frequency become less gradually.

Position-dependent dynamics of a trapped ion in a standing wave laser

Mao-Fa Fang

We have investigated the position-dependent dynamics of a trapped ion in a standing wave laser by transforming it to the Jaynes-Cummings-type system under the Lamb-Dicke limit. A variety of novel phenomena are exhibited, e.g. periodic collapse and revival features and long-time scaled revivals of the ionic inversion, depending on its position in the standing wave. Our result provides a way of producing a system equivalent to the two-photon Jaynes-Cummings model in the trapped ion system, with its exact periodicities.

Super-revivals, chaos, and entanglement of a trapped ion in a standing wave

Mao-Fa Fang, S. Swain, Peng Zhou

We unitarily transform the Hamiltonian of a trapped ion, situated at any position of a standing-wave laser field, to that for the normal Jaynes-Cummings model in the bare ionic basis, and we obtain the general evolution operator of the trapped ion system. We show the existence of super-revivals of the ionic inversion if the trapped ion is not located at a node of the standing wave, and we examine the degree of entanglement between the vibrational phonons and the trapped ion. For some parameter values, we find chaotic behavior.

Quantum collapse and revival in the motion of a single trapped ion

J. I. Cirac, R. Blatt, A. S. Parkins +1 more

Within certain limits, the dynamics of a single trapped ion oscillating about the node of a standing-wave light field is described by the Jaynes-Cummings model, which is routinely used for cavity-QED experiments. We propose a technique to measure quantum collapse and revival in the population inversion of a single trapped ion, and show that this method is uniquely suited for the measurement of final temperatures of the trapped ion as well as for the analysis of nonclassical states of the ion motion, such as Fock and squeezed states. The results are discussed with particular consideration given to the effects of a finite laser bandwidth.
