Quantum efficiency of single-photon sources in the cavity-QED strong-coupling regime.

چکیده
We calculate the integrated-pulse quantum efficiency of single-photon sources in the cavity quantum electrodynamics (QED) strong-coupling regime. An analytical expression for the quantum efficiency is obtained in the Weisskopf-Wigner approximation. Optimal conditions for a high quantum efficiency and a temporally localized photon emission rate are examined. We show the condition under which the earlier result of Law and Kimble [J. Mod. Opt. 44, 2067 (1997)] can be used as the first approximation to our result.

Emission spectra and quantum efficiency of single-photon sources in the cavity-QED strong-coupling regime
We derive analytical formulas for the forward emission and side emission spectra of cavity-modified single-photon sources, as well as the corresponding normal-mode oscillations in the cavity quantum electrodynamics strong-coupling regime. We investigate the effects of pure dephasing, treated in the phase-diffusion model based on a Wiener-Levy process, on the emission spectra and normalmode osci...
متن کاملSingle-photon all-optical switching using waveguide-cavity quantum electrodynamics
This paper demonstrates switching of a single signal photon by a single gating photon of a different frequency, via a cross-phase-modulation. This effect is mediated by materials exhibiting electromagnetically induced transparency EIT , which are embedded in photonic crystals PhCs . An analytical model based on waveguide-cavity QED is constructed for our system, which consists of a PhC waveguid...

متن کاملEfficient atomic quantum memory for photonic qubits in cavity QED
We investigate a scheme of atomic quantum memory to store photonic qubits of polarization in cavity QED. It is observed that the quantum-state swapping between a single-photon pulse and a Λ-type atom can be made via scattering in an optical cavity [T. W. Chen, C. K. Law, P. T. Leung, Phys. Rev. A 69 (2004) 063810]. This swapping operates limitedly in the strong coupling regime for Λ-type atoms ...
متن کاملCavity QED with Single Atoms and Photons
Recent experimental advances in the field of cavity quantum electrodynamics (QED) have opened new possibilities for control of atom-photon interactions. A laser with “one and the same atom” demonstrates the theory of laser operation pressed to its conceptual limit [1]. The generation of single photons on demand and the realization of cavity QED with well defined atomic numbers N = 0,1,2, ... bo...
