Optical forces on atoms subject to higher-order Poincaré vortex modes
Smail Bougouffa, Mohamed Babiker
The interaction of atoms with higher-order Poincaré optical vortex modes of order is explored for light close to resonance with atomic dipole transitions. It is well-know…
Exploring quantum correlations in a hybrid optomechanical system
Smail Bougouffa, Mohannad Al-Hmoud, Jabir Wali Hakami
In quantum simulations and experiments on optomechanical cavities, coherence control is a challenging issue. We propose a scheme of two coupled optomechanical cavities to enhance t…
Quadrupole absorption rate for atoms in circularly-polarized optical vortices
Smail Bougouffa
Twisted light beams, or optical vortices, have been used to drive the circular motion of microscopic particles in optical tweezers and have been shown to generate vortices in quant…
Delayed transfer of entanglement to initially populated qubits
Smail Bougouffa, Zbigniew Ficek
The transfer of entangled, quantum correlated, flying photons from a squeezed field to single-mode cavities is investigated. It is shown that, while the transfer of photons begins…
Stationary Bipartite Entanglement in Hybrid Optomechanical cavities
Smail Bougouffa, Mohannad Al-Hmoud
We investigate the stationary bipartite entanglement is a useful hybrid optomechanical system, which is constituted of two coupled-cavity optomechanics through a photon hopping pro…
Quadrupole Interaction of Non-diffracting Beams with Two-Level Atoms
Saud Al-Awfi, Smail Bougouffa
Recently it has been shown that the quadrupole interactions can be improved significantly as the atom interacts at near resonance with the Laguerre-Gaussian (LG) mode. In this pape…
