Long-time-scale revivals in ion traps
arXiv:quant-ph/9812047 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevA.59.2518
Abstract
In this contribution we investigate the interaction of a single ion in a trap with laser beams. Our approach, based on unitary transformating the Hamiltonian, allows its exact diagonalization without performing the Lamb-Dicke approximation. We obtain a transformed Jaynes-Cummings type Hamiltonian, and we demonstrate the existence of super-revivals in that system.
