SQUEEZING PROPERTIES OF A TRAPPED ION IN THE STANDING-WAVE LASER

We investigate the squeezing properties of a trapped ion in a standing-wave laser. Our results show that the squeezing of a trapped ion in the standing-wave laser is dependent on its position in the latter, the detuning parameter and the initial average phonon number.     

A scheme of quantum phase gate for trapped ion

We propose a scheme to implement two-qubit controlled quantum phase gate(CQPG) via a single trapped two-level ion located in the standing wave field of a quantum cavity, in which the trap works beyond the Lamb--Dicke limit. When the light field is resonant with the atomic transition $|g\rangle\leftrightarrow|e\rangle$ of the ion located at the antinode of the standing wave, we can perform CQPG between the internal and external states of the trapped ion; while the frequency of the light field is chosen to be resonant with the first red sideband of the collective vibrational mode of the ion located at the node of the standing wave, we can perform CQPG between the cavity mode and the collective vibrational mode of the trapped ion. Neither the Lamb--Dicke approximation nor the assistant classical laser is needed. Also we can generate a GHZ state if assisted with a classical laser.     

Generation of Schrodinger cat state of a single trapped cold ion

The fidelity of the generated Schrdinger Cat state(SCS) of a single trapped ion in the Lamb-Dicke approximation is discussed.The results show that the fidelity significantly decreases with the values of Lamb-Dicke parameter η and coherent state amplitude α increasing.For η = 0.20 and α = 3,the typical values of experimental parameters,the fidelity is rather low(30%).A scheme for generating the SCS is proposed without making the Lamb-Dike approximation in laser-ion interaction,and the fidelity of the generated SCS is about 99% for the typical values of experimental Lamb-Dicke parameters.     

Quantum State Transfer in Trapped-Ion-Cavity Systems

We study the information transfer and entanglement transfer in a system consisting of single trapped ions in cavities by the three-mode cross-Kerr-like interaction among the cavity field （photons）, the centre-of-mass motion （phonons） and the internal state of the trapped ion in the Lamb-Dicke and large detuning regime.     

Preparation of multicomponent motional coherent and squeezed coherent states of a trapped ion

In this paper, we present a scheme for preparation of multicomponent motional coherent and squeezed coherent states of the quantized centre of mass of an ion trapped in a one-dimensional harmonic potential and driven by two travelling-wave laser beams tuned to the nth red and blue vibrational sidebands, respectively. In addition, our scheme also provides experimental possibility for quantum state engineering.     

A simple Scheme for Generating an n-Qubit W State in a Trapped-Ion System without a Lamb-Dicke Limit

A simple and scalable scheme is proposed to generate a n-qubit W state in a trapped-ion system without the Lamb-Dicke limit. The n-qubit W state can be generated by the interaction between the ions and the laser field if the collective mode is initially prepared in the single-phonon state and each ion is in the ground state. The scheme only requires a single laser and avoids laser manipulation of the individual ion. The time required to complete the process decreases with the number of ions. The present scheme is not limited to small values of the LD parameter, which greatly enhances operation speeds.     

囚禁离子非线性Jaynes-Cummings模型量子场熵演化特性

利用VonNeuuman量子约化熵理论研究了驻波激光场与囚禁在谐振势中的离子单量子共振相互作用系统中量子场熵的时间演化特性,通过数值计算详细讨论了Lamb-Dick参数、离子质心在驻波激光场中的位置以及囚禁离子初始状态对量子场熵演化特性的影响.结果表明:Lamb-Dick参数影响囚禁离子与驻波激光场之间量子纠缠的频率和幅度,其值越大离子与光场之间的平均纠缠程度越低;随着离子质心从驻波激光场的波节向波腹移动,二者之间量子纠缠的振荡频率逐渐变慢,纠缠强度逐渐减弱;随着囚禁离子处于激发态概率的减小,离子与光场之间的量子纠缠呈现先增强后减弱的变化趋势.这些特性对于纠缠态的制备以及利用囚禁离子进行量子通讯等信息处理过程有一定的参考价值.

Squeezing Properties of the Ion Traps

With time and space transformation, we first solve the Schrodinger equation of the time-dependent harmonic oscillator (TDHO) system. The properties of the squeezing in the case of ω(t) =√U + VcosΩt, i.e., the Paul trap and ω(t) = ω₀ + ω₁secλt, namely a stable frequency interfered by a single-pulsing-type disturbance, are investigated by using function series expansion. Results in the former case are compared with the numerical calculations carried out before. It is found that the condition related to the most strong squeezing is the direct result of our method, not any approximation is needed. Solutions of the latter one are valuable for the study of the ion trap, where different cases are studied in detail. Finally we made a discussion for the measurement and observation of a trapped ion by using squeezing properties.     

Generation of Superpositions of Two-Mode Coherent States for the Motion of Two Trapped Ions

We propose a method for the generation of superpositions of two-mode coherent states for the center-of-mass and relative vibrational modes of two trapped ions. In the scheme the ions are driven by a single travelling-wave laser field tuned to the carrier. Then a measurement of the internal states collapses the vibrational modes to the entangled coherent state.

Nonclassical effect in the MIT output coupler for the Bose–Einstein condensate

A quantum dynamical theory for output coupler of the trapped Bose–Einstein condensate is presented under no rotating wave approximation (RWA) based on the MIT experiment (Phys. Rev. Lett. 78 (1997) 582) for the atom laser. We show that the nonclassical properties, such as sub-Poisson distribution and quadrature squeezing effect, can exist in the outcoupled atomic pulse as time evolves, which indicates an interesting optical control on quantum statistics of the atom laser through varying the strength of the input light.     

原子间相互作用对双模原子激光压缩性质的影响

研究了由单模压缩相干态光场与Ξ型三能级原子玻色爱因斯坦凝聚体(BEC)相互作用系统中耦合输出的双模原子激光的压缩特性,重点讨论了玻色爱因斯坦凝聚体原子间相互作用对原子激光压缩性质的影响,并讨论了原子激光压缩对光场初始压缩因子的依赖关系。结果表明:由光场诱导的双模原子激光呈现周期性的压缩,原子间的相互作用和光场初始压缩因子对原子的压缩性质具有重要影响。原子间的相互作用影响原子激光压缩的振荡频率而不会影响其压缩深度,而初始光场的压缩因子则对原子激光压缩深度产生调制作用,且初始光场的压缩因子越大,则原子激光压缩的时间越短。     

Squeezing of an atom laser originating from atomic Bose-Einstein condensate interacting with light field

The quadrature squeezing properties of an atom laser originating from atomic Bose-Einstein condensate interacting with light field are studied. We find that the squeezing properties of the atom laser are dependent on the initial light field interacting with the atomic Bose-Einstein condensate. If the initial light field cannot be squeezed, such as number state or coherent state light field, the atom laser as well cannot be squeezed. However, if the initial light field interacting with the atomic Bose-Einstein condensate being in squeezed state, the atom laser can be squeezed periodically, and its squeezing depth is dependent on the intensity of interatoms interaction.     

驻波激光场中囚禁离子内外自由度熵的演化特性

从描述囚禁离子与驻波激光场相互作用的Jaynes-Cummings（J-C）模型出发,导出了囚禁离子谐振动单量子共振激发相互作用的非线性J-C模型。通过求解这一模型下系统态和离子系统熵的演化规律,数值研究了囚禁离子的熵演化与Lamb-Dick参数  、离子在驻波激光场中的位置以及初始声子强度之间的关系。结果表明,离子熵的演化呈现非周期性的振荡。随着参数  的增大,囚禁离子熵演化的振荡频率变大,囚禁离子内外自由度退纠缠的时间变短。当离子质心的位置从驻波激光场的波节移向波腹,囚禁离子熵演化的振荡频率变小,离子与声子自由度退纠缠的时间变长。如果初始声子场强度较小,离子熵随时间的演化强烈地表现为不规则的振荡,且振荡频率较大;随着初始声子场强度变大,离子熵的演化类似于J-C模型中的场熵演化,不规则的振荡频率逐渐变小。

Influence of the virtual photon field on the squeezing properties of atom laser

This paper investigates the squeezing properties of an atom laser without rotating-wave approximation in the system of a binomial states field interacting with a two-level atomic Bose--Einstein condensate. It discusses the influences of atomic eigenfrequency, the interaction intensity between the optical field and atoms,parameter of the binomial states field and virtual photon field on the squeezing properties. The results show that two quadrature components of an atom laser can be squeezed periodically. The duration and the degree of squeezing an atom laser have something to do with the atomic eigenfrequency and the parameter of the binomial states field, respectively. The collapse and revival frequency of atom laser fluctuation depends on the interaction intensity between the optical field and atoms. The effect of the virtual photon field deepens the depth of squeezing an atom laser.     

Nonclassical properties of odd and even elliptical states

As a generalization of the optical circular states, elliptical states which are quantum superposition of coherent states on an ellipse in the α plane are constructed. The statistical properties of the states are investigated by using sub-Poissonian photon statistics, quadrature squeezing, Wigner function and phase distribution. It is shown that the elliptical states exhibit stronger quadrature squeezing. The interference fringes between the coherent states form the elliptic annuli of Fock states in the Wigner function picture. The phase distribution is no longer uniform as the circular states. An experimental scheme is proposed for generating equidistant coherent-state superpositions on an ellipse for the motion of the center of mass of a trapped ion.     

Two-Mode Normal Squeezing of a Nondegenerate Bimodal Multiquanta Jaynes–Cummings Model in the Presence of Stark Shifts

We investigate the two-mode normal squeezing in the presence of Stark shiftsfor a generalized Jaynes–Cummings Model (JCM) with a two-level particle (atomor trapped ion) and two modes interacting nonlinearly. The effect of the relativephase between the atomic superposition state and the coherent field in the presenceand absence of the Stark shift on squeezing is studied. Different values for theparameters of the atomic coherent state are taken.
