Entanglement of distant atoms by projective measurement: The role of detection efficiency

Stefano Zippilli, Georgina A. Olivares-Renteria, Giovanna Morigi +3

We assess proposals for entangling two distant atoms by measurement of emitted photons, analyzing how their performance depends on the photon detection efficiency. We consider sche…

Time-separated entangled light pulses from a single-atom emitter

David Vitali, Priscilla Canizares, Juergen Eschner +1

The controlled interaction between a single, trapped, laser-driven atom and the mode of a high-finesse optical cavity allows for the generation of temporally separated, entangled l…

Quantum coherence and population trapping in three-photon processes

Caroline Champenois, Giovanna Morigi, Juergen Eschner

The spectroscopic properties of a single, tightly trapped atom are studied, when the electronic levels are coupled by three laser fields in an -shaped configuration of levels, w…

Sub-wavelength resolution of optical fields probed by single trapped ions: Interference, phase modulation, and which-way information

Juergen Eschner

Taking recent experiments as examples, we discuss the conditions for sub-wavelength probing of optical field structures by single trapped atoms. We calculate the achievable resolut…

Doppler cooling of a Coulomb crystal

Giovanna Morigi, Juergen Eschner

We study theoretically Doppler laser-cooling of a cluster of 2-level atoms confined in a linear ion trap. Using several consecutive steps of averaging we derive, from the full quan…
