Phase shift of a weak coherent beam induced by a single atom
Syed Abdullah Aljunid, Meng Khoon Tey, Brenda Chng +4
We report on a direct measurement of a phase shift on a weak coherent beam by a single Rb-87 atom in a Mach-Zehnder interferometer. A maximum phase shift of about 1 degree is obser…
Interfacing light and single atoms with a lens
Meng Khoon Tey, Gleb Maslennikov, Timothy C. H. Liew +6
We characterize the interaction between a single atom or similar microscopic system and a light field via the scattering ratio. For that, we first derive the electrical field in a…
Strong interaction between light and a single trapped atom without a cavity
Meng Khoon Tey, Zilong Chen, Syed Abdullah Aljunid +4
Coupling of light to an atom at single quanta level with high probability is a building block for many quantum information processing protocols. It is commonly believed that effici…
