Injection locking of a trapped-ion phonon laser.
We report on injection locking of optically excited mechanical oscillations of a single, trapped ion. The injection locking dynamics are studied by analyzing the oscillator spectrum with a spatially selective Fourier transform technique and the oscillator phase with stroboscopic imaging. In both cases we find excellent agreement with theory inside and outside the locking range. We attain inject...
متن کاملPhonon arithmetic in a trapped ion system
Single-quantum level operations are important tools to manipulate a quantum state. Annihilation or creation of single particles translates a quantum state to another by adding or subtracting a particle, depending on how many are already in the given state. The operations are probabilistic and the success rate has yet been low in their experimental realization. Here we experimentally demonstrate...
متن کاملA trapped-ion phonon laser and the detection of ultra-weak forces
This dissertation reports on the demonstration of a mechanical analogue to an optical laser, a ”phonon laser”, using a single trapped ion. Furthermore, we show that the dynamics of this system are surprisingly sensitive to external fields; we demonstrate phase synchronization (”injection locking”) to an external signal by applying forces as weak as 5 yN (yocto=10). This enormous sensitivity mig...
متن کاملTrapped ion quantum computation with transverse phonon modes.
We propose a scheme to implement quantum gates on any pair of trapped ions immersed in a large linear crystal, using interaction mediated by the transverse phonon modes. Compared with the conventional approaches based on the longitudinal phonon modes, this scheme is much less sensitive to ion heating and thermal motion outside of the Lamb-Dicke limit thanks to the stronger confinement in the tr...
متن کاملInjection locking of a 13-W cw Nd:YAG ring laser.
A lamp-pumped, 13-W cw Nd:YAG ring laser at 1.064 microm is injection locked using a 40-mW single-frequency diodelaser-pumped Nd:YAG laser as the master oscillator. The phase fidelity of the injected slave to the master is measured using an all-optical technique.
