چکیده

Coherent interaction between discrete quantum states via a continuum is an intriguing process. Although the continuum is traditionally seen as an incoherent medium, (partial) transfer of coherence can nevertheless occur through a continuum. In particular, much theoretical and experimental attention has been devoted to laserinduced continuum structure (LICS) [1–19], where the interaction between a discrete state ψ2 and a structureless, flat continuum creates a structure in the continuum which affects significantly the interaction of another discrete state ψ1 with this continuum. For example, the ionization probability for state ψ1, when plotted as a function of the frequency of the ionizing laser, exhibits the so-called Fano profile [1]. The physical nature of LICS is closely related to autoionizing states [1,20–26]. It has been suggested by Carroll and Hioe a few years ago [27,28] that a continuum can serve as an intermediary

Implementation of Single-Qutrit Quantum Gates via Tripod Adiabatic Passage

We proposed and analyzed implementation of the single-qutrit quantum gates based on stimulated Raman adiabatic passage (STIRAP) between magnetic sublevels in atoms coupled by pulsed laser fields. This technique requires only the control of the relative phase of the driving fields but do not involve any dynamical or geometrical phases, which make it independent of the other interaction details: ...

Coherent Control of Quantum Entropy via Quantum Interference in a Four-Level Atomic System

The time evaluation of quantum entropy in a four-level double- type atomic system is theoretically investigated. Quantum entanglement of the atom and its spontaneous emission fields is then discussed via quantum entropy. It is found that the degree of entanglement can be increased by the quantum interference induced by spontaneous emission. The phase dependence of the atom-field entanglement is...

Coherent photon transport from spontaneous emission in one-dimensional waveguides.

A two-level system coupled to a one-dimensional continuum is investigated. By using a real-space model Hamiltonian, we show that spontaneous emission can coherently interfere with the continuum modes and gives interesting transport properties. The technique is applied to various related problems with different configurations, and analytical solutions are given.

Unstable quantum systems coupled via continuum and super-radiance

Excited states of a quantum system are unstable and decay into the continuum. The dynamics of the transmission quantum signal through a two-dimensional lattice with open decay channels coupled to the continuum is treated by means of a discretized effective non-Hermitian Hamiltonian. The energies and widths are treated as real and imaginary parts of complex eingenvalues for the effective Hamilto...
