Nonlinear dissipation can combat linear loss

Abstract

We demonstrate that it is possible to compensate for effects of strong linear loss when generating non-classical states by engineered nonlinear dissipation. We show that it is always possible to construct such a loss-resistant dissipative gadget in which, for a certain class of initial states, the desired non-classical pure state can be attained within a particular time interval with an arbitrary precision. Further we demonstrate that an arbitrarily large linear loss can still be compensated by a sufficiently strong coherent or even thermal driving, thus attaining a strongly non-classical (in particular, sub-Poissonian) stationary mixed states.Comment: Submitted to PR
