Time-optimal synthesis of SU(2) transformations for a spin-1/2 system
A. D. Boozer
We consider a quantum control problem involving a spin-1/2 particle in a magnetic field. The magnitude of the field is held constant, and the direction of the field, which is const…
Theory of Raman transitions in cavity QED
A. D. Boozer
We present two schemes for driving Raman transitions between the ground state hyperfine manifolds of a single atom trapped within a high-finesse optical cavity. In both schemes, th…
Stimulated Raman adiabatic passage in a multi-level atom
A. D. Boozer
We present a general formalism for describing stimulated Raman adiabatic passage in a multi-level atom. The atom is assumed to have two ground state manifolds a and b and an excite…
Optical pumping via incoherent Raman transitions
A. D. Boozer, R. Miller, T. E. Northup +2
A new optical pumping scheme is presented that uses incoherent Raman transitions to prepare a trapped Cesium atom in a specific Zeeman state within the 6S_{1/2}, F=3 hyperfine mani…
Reversible state transfer between light and a single trapped atom
A. D. Boozer, A. Boca, R. Miller +2
We demonstrate the reversible mapping of a coherent state of light with mean photon number n-bar ~= 1.1 to and from the hyperfine states of an atom trapped within the mode of a hig…
Cooling to the Ground State of Axial Motion for One Atom Strongly Coupled to an Optical Cavity
A. D. Boozer, A. Boca, R. Miller +2
Localization to the ground state of axial motion is demonstrated for a single, trapped atom strongly coupled to the field of a high finesse optical resonator. The axial atomic moti…
