Measuring the Molecular Polarizability of Air
M. J. Madsen, D. R. Brown, S. R. Krutz +1
We present an update of the "refractive index of air" experiment commonly used in optics and undergraduate advanced labs. The refractive index of air is based on the average molecu…
Ultrafast Coherent Coupling of Atomic Hyperfine and Photon Frequency Qubits
M. J. Madsen, D. L. Moehring, P. Maunz +3
We demonstrate ultrafast coherent coupling between an atomic qubit stored in a single trapped cadmium ion and a photonic qubit represented by two resolved frequencies of a photon.…
Probabilistic Quantum Gates between Remote Atoms through Interference of Optical Frequency Qubits
L. -M. Duan, M. J. Madsen, D. L. Moehring +3
We propose a scheme to perform probabilistic quantum gates on remote trapped atom qubits through interference of optical frequency qubits. The method does not require localization…
Broadband laser cooling of trapped atoms with ultrafast pulses
B. B. Blinov, R. N. Kohn, M. J. Madsen +3
We demonstrate broadband laser cooling of atomic ions in an rf trap using ultrafast pulses from a modelocked laser. The temperature of a single ion is measured by observing the siz…
Precision lifetime measurements of a single trapped ion with ultrafast laser pulses
D. L. Moehring, B. B. Blinov, D. W. Gidley +5
We report precision measurements of the excited state lifetime of the and levels of a single trapped Cd ion. The ion is excited with picosecon…
Experimental Bell Inequality Violation with an Atom and a Photon
D. L. Moehring, M. J. Madsen, B. B. Blinov +1
We report the measurement of a Bell inequality violation with a single atom and a single photon prepared in a probabilistic entangled state. This is the first demonstration of such…
