Entanglement of Atoms via Cold Controlled Collisions

Abstract

We show that by using cold controlled collisions between two atoms one can achieve conditional dynamics in moving trap potentials. We discuss implementing two qubit quantum gates and efficient creation of highly entangled states of many atoms in optical lattices.

Entangling neutral atoms for quantum information processing

We review recent proposals for performing entanglement manipulation via cold collisions between neutral atoms. State-dependent, time-varying trapping potentials allow one to control the interaction between atoms, so that conditional phase shifts realizing a universal quantum gate can be obtained with high fidelity. We discuss possible physical implementations with existing experimental techniques, for example optical lattices and magnetic micro-traps.

Engineering Multiparticle Entanglement with Neutral Atoms in Optical Lattices

Immanuel Bloch

The controlled creation of entanglement is one of the most challenging goals of modern quantum physics. Here we show how spin dependent optical lattice potentials together with controlled collisions between atoms in an optical lattice potential can be used to realize massively parallel operating quantum gates. In a second experiment, the generation of Bell states of atom pairs on single lattice sites is demonstrated by employing a newly found interstate Feshbach resonance in 87Rb. This Feshbach resonance has allowed us to efficiently modify the scattering length between two atoms in different spin states and is used to induce an entanglement dynamics in the system.

Quantum information processing with cold atoms and trapped ions

Juan José García‐Ripoll, P. Zoller, J. I. Cirac

This paper summarizes some important achievements of quantum information processing with trapped ions or neutral atoms. In particular, we describe the storage of information and realization of two-qubit gates with ions, as well as the creation of entanglement and quantum simulation with cold atoms in optical lattices.

Controlling dynamical phases in quantum optics

Tommaso Calarco, Dieter Jaksch, J. I. Cirac +1 more

We review and compare several schemes for inducing precisely controlled quantum phases in quantum optical systems. We focus in particular on conditional dynamical phases, i.e. phases obtained via state-and time-dependent interactions between trapped two-level atoms and ions. We describe different possibilities for the kind of interaction to be exploited, including cold controlled collisions, electrostatic forces, and dipole–dipole interactions.
