Diagrammatic treatment of few-photon scattering from a Rydberg blockaded atomic ensemble in a cavity

A. Grankin, P. Grangier, E. Brion

In a previous letter we studied the giant optical nonlinearities of a Rydberg atomic medium within an optical cavity, in the Schwinger-Keldysh formalism. In particular, we calculat…

Inelastic photon scattering via the intracavity Rydberg blockade

A. Grankin, E. Brion, R. Boddeda +4

Electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) in a ladder system involving a Rydberg level is known to yield giant optical nonlinearities for the probe field, even in the few-phot…

Rydberg-induced optical nonlinearities from a cold atomic ensemble trapped inside a cavity

Rajiv Boddeda, Imam Usmani, Erwan Bimbard +4

We experimentally characterize the optical nonlinear response of a cold atomic medium placed inside an optical cavity, and excited to Rydberg states. The excitation to S and D Rydb…

Photonic Controlled-Phase Gates Through Rydberg Blockade in Optical Cavities

Sumanta Das, Andrey Grankin, Ivan Iakoupov +7

We propose a novel scheme for high fidelity photonic controlled phase gates using Rydberg blockade in an ensemble of atoms in an optical cavity. The gate operation is obtained by f…

Quantum optical non-linearities induced by Rydberg-Rydberg interactions: a perturbative approach

A. Grankin, E. Brion, E. Bimbard +4

In this article, we theoretically study the quantum statistical properties of the light transmitted through or reflected from an optical cavity, filled by an atomic medium with str…

Quantum statistics of light transmitted through an intracavity Rydberg medium

A. Grankin, E. Brion, E. Bimbard +4

We theoretically investigate the quantum statistical properties of light transmitted through an atomic medium with strong optical non-linearity induced by Rydberg-Rydberg van der W…

Homodyne tomography of a single photon retrieved on demand from a cavity-enhanced cold atom memory

Erwan Bimbard, Rajiv Boddeda, Nicolas Vitrant +5

We experimentally demonstrate that a non-classical state prepared in an atomic memory can be efficiently transferred to a single mode of free-propagating light. By retrieving on de…
