Dark states of dressed Bose-Einstein condensates
We combine the ideas of dressed Bose-Einstein condensates, where an
intracavity optical field allows one to design coupled, multicomponent
condensates, and of dark states of quantum systems, to generate a full quantum
entanglement between two matter waves and two optical waves. While the matter
waves are macroscopically populated, the two optical modes share a single
photon. As such, this system offers a way to influence the behaviour of a
macroscopic quantum system via a microscopic ``knob''.Comment: 6 pages, no figur
