Quantum states preparation of an atomic ensemble via cavity-assisted homodyne measurement
arXiv:1809.04937 · doi:10.1088/1361-6455/ab42cc
Abstract
The quantum spin states of atomic ensemble are of special interesting for both fundamental studies and precision measurement applications. Here, we propose a scheme to prepare collective quantum states of an atomic ensemble placed in an optical cavity via homodyne measurement of probing light field. The effective interactions of atoms mediated by photons are enhanced by the optical cavity, and the output probe light could also be entangled with the collective spin states. By selectively measuring the quadrature of output light, we can prepare various quantum states, including superposition states of Dicke states and Dicke squeezed states. It is also demonstrated that the fidelity of prepared quantum state can be enhanced by repetitive homodyne detection and using longer probe laser pulses. Our scheme is feasible for experimental realization with current technologies, which may be used in future study of quantum mechanics and quantum metrology.
