Squeezing generation and revivals in a cavity-ion system in contact with a reservoir
arXiv:quant-ph/0412055 · doi:10.1088/0953-4075/38/6/011
Abstract
We consider a system consisting of a single two-level ion in a harmonic trap, which is localized inside a non-ideal optical cavity at zero temperature and subjected to the action of two external lasers. We are able to obtain an analytical solution for the total density operator of the system and show that squeezing in the motion of the ion and in the cavity field is generated. We also show that complete revivals of the states of the motion of the ion and of the cavity field occur periodically.
