Mesoscopic entanglement of atomic ensembles through non-resonant stimulated Raman scattering
Wenhai Ji, Chunbai Wu, S. J. van Enk +1
We propose a scheme of generating and verifying mesoscopic-level entanglement between two atomic ensembles using non-resonant stimulated Raman scattering. Entanglement can be gener…
Generation of Pure-State Single-Photon Wavepackets by Conditional Preparation Based on Spontaneous Parametric Downconversion
Alfred B. U'Ren, Christine Silberhorn, Reinhard Erdmann +4
We study the conditional preparation of single photons based on parametric downconversion, where the detection of one photon from a given pair heralds the existence of a single pho…
Two-photon wave mechanics
Brian J. Smith, M. G. Raymer
The position-representation wave function for multi-photon states and its equation of motion are introduced. A major strength of the theory is that it describes the complete evolut…
The Maxwell wave function of the photon
M. G. Raymer, Brian J. Smith
James Clerk Maxwell unknowingly discovered a correct relativistic, quantum theory for the light quantum, forty-three years before Einstein postulated the photon's existence. In thi…
Emission spectra and quantum efficiency of single-photon sources in the cavity-QED strong-coupling regime
Guoqiang Cui, M. G. Raymer
We derive analytical formulas for the forward emission and side emission spectra of cavity-modified single-photon sources, as well as the corresponding normal-mode oscillations in…
A hemispherical, high-solid-angle optical micro-cavity for cavity-QED studies
Guoqiang Cui, J. M. Hannigan, R. Loeckenhoff +8
We report a novel hemispherical micro-cavity that is comprised of a planar integrated semiconductor distributed Bragg reflector (DBR) mirror, and an external, concave micro-mirror…
