    Implementation of quantum algorithms with resonant interactions

    Full text link
    We propose a scheme for implementing quantum algorithms with resonant interactions. Our scheme only requires resonant interactions between two atoms and a cavity mode, which is simple and feasible. Moreover, the implementation would be an important step towards the fabrication of quantum computers in cavity QED system.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figure

    Generation of cluster states

    Full text link
    We propose two schemes for the generation of the cluster states. One is based on cavity quantum electrodynamics (QED) techniques. The scheme only requires resonant interactions between two atoms and a single-mode cavity. The interaction time is very short, which is important in view of decoherence. Furthermore, we also discuss the cavity decay and atomic spontaneous emission case. The other is based on atomic ensembles. The scheme has inherent fault tolerance function and is robust to realistic noise and imperfections. All the facilities used in our schemes are well within the current technology.Comment: Complete rewite version, adding the main results of quant-ph/0511045. 7 pages and 3 figure

    Observation of recoil-induced resonances and electromagnetically induced absorption of cold atoms in diffuse light

    Full text link
    In this paper we report an experiment on the observation of the recoil-induced resonances (RIR) and electromagnetically induced absorption (EIA) of cold Rb87 atoms in diffuse light. The pump light of the RIR and the EIA comes from the diffuse light in an integrating sphere, which also serves the cooling light. The probe light beam is a weak laser split from the cooling laser in order to keep the cooling and probe lasers correlated. We measured the RIR and the EIA signal varying with the detuning of the diffuse laser light, and also measured the temperature of the cold atoms at the different detunings. The mechanism of RIR and EIA in the configuration with diffuse-light pumping and laser probing is discussed, and the difference of nonlinear spectra of cold atoms between in diffuse-light cooling system and in optical molasses as well as in a magneto-optical trap (MOT) are studied.Comment: 9 pages, 6 figure
