Abstract

A potential scheme is proposed to generate complete sets of entangled photons in the context of cavity quantum electrodynamics (QED). The scheme includes twice interactions of atoms with cavities, in which the first interaction is made in two-mode optical cavities and the second one exists in a microwave cavity. In the optical cavities the atoms are resonant with the cavity modes, while the detuned interaction of the atoms with a single-mode of the microwave cavity is driven by a classical field. We show that our scheme is carried out with higher efficiency than previeous schemes, and is close to the reach of current technique.

Efficient generation of Bell-cat states in remote cavities

Ying Zhang

In the context of cavity quantum electrodynamics (QED),a potential scheme is proposed to generate entangled coherent states. The scheme includes twice interactions of two-level atoms with cavities. In the first interaction,two atoms are sent into a microwave cavity with the large detuning respectively. And then the second interaction is that the two atoms enter another microwave cavity and are driven by a resonant classical field meantime. When we choose the proper interaction time and make measurement on the two atoms,the two microwave cavity mode fields are determinatively entangled. In addition,it is easy to generalize the scheme to multi-cavity and multi-atom.

Generation of two-mode entangled coherent states via a cavity QED system

Qing-Xia Mu, Yonghong Ma, Ling Zhou

A scheme is presented for the generation of entangled coherent states in a single-atom cavity-QED system. In the scheme, a three-level V -type atom interacts dispersively with a two-mode cavity and is driven by a classical field. We show that under large detuning conditions the cavity field can evolve into maximally entangled coherent states when one cavity mode is initially prepared in an odd coherent state. The effect of the cavity losses on the entanglement is also studied.

Efficient Scheme for Entangling Two Distant Atoms

LU Dao-ming, Zheng Shi-Biao

A scheme is presented for the generation of entangled states for two atoms trapped in two distant cavities. In the scheme each atom is resonantly coupled with the respective cavity mode and driven by a strong classical field. The detection of a photon decaying from the cavities and passing through a beam-splitter collapses the atoms to an entangled state. The required atom-field interaction time is very short and thus the decoherence effect is suppressed. Our scheme is within the reach of presently available cavity QED techniques.

Cavity-quantum-electrodynamics entangled photon source based on two truncated Rabi oscillations

We discuss a cavity-QED scheme to deterministically generate entangled photons pairs by using a three-level atom successively coupled to two single longitudinal mode high-Q cavities presenting polarization degeneracy. The first cavity is prepared in a well-defined Fock state with two photons with opposite circular polarizations while the second cavity remains in the vacuum state. Half of a resonant Rabi oscillation in each cavity transfers one photon from the first to the second cavity, leaving the photons entangled in their polarization degree of freedom. The feasibility of this implementation and some practical considerations are discussed for both microwave and optical regimes. In particular, Monte Carlo wave-function simulations have been performed with state-of-the-art parameter values to evaluate the success probability of the cavity-QED source in producing entangled photon pairs as well as its entanglement capability.

Generation of Different Classes of Multipartite Entanglement Using Cavity-QED

Mustapha Ziane, Rachid El Guerbouz, Fatima-Zahra Siyouri +1 more

Abstract Using a system of cavity quantum electrodynamics (QED) we present two schemes for multipartite entanglement generation. In the first scheme, a three-level atom is interacting with three cavities successively. In the second one, two three-level atoms are interacted with a coherent optical cavity. These protocols allow us to generate the six classes of tripartite entanglement (GHZ, W, A-B-C, AB-C, C-AB, and B-AC class states) by controling the interaction time between atoms and cavities. Moreover, they allow us to generate entanglement between the cavity fields degrees of freedom (from the first scheme), and a mixed entanglement between the cavity field degrees of freedom and the atomic degrees of freedom.

Generation of a Genuine Six-Atom Entangled State in Cavity QED

李渊华, 王贤平, 桑明煌 +1 more

We propose a potential scheme to generate a genuine six-atom entangled state [J. Phys. A 42 (2009) 415301] by using atoms in cavity QED system, where the atoms interact simultaneously with the highly detuned single-mode cavity and the strong classical driving field. Thus our approach is insensitive to both the cavity decay and thermal field.
