Single microwave photon detection with a trapped electron
We investigate theoretically the use of an electron in a Penning trap as a detector of single microwave photons. At the University of Sussex we are developing a chip Penning trap technology, designed to be integrated within quantum circuits. Microwave photons are guided into the trap and interact with the electron’s quantum cyclotronmotion. This is an electric dipole transition, where the near ...
متن کاملA Non-Demolition Photon Counting Method by Four-Level Inverted Y-Type Atom
The semi-classical model of atom-field interaction has been fully studied for some multilevel atoms, e.g. Vee, L, Cascade X , Y, and inverted Y and so on. This issue is developed into the full-quantum electrodynamics formalism, where the probe and coupling electromagnetic fields are quantized. In this article, we investigate the full-quantum model of absorption and dispersion spectrum of trappe...
متن کاملQuantum non-demolition measurements: a new resource for making linear logic scalable
We discuss a new and novel approach to the problem of creating a photon number resolving detector using the giant Kerr nonlinearities available in electromagnetically induced transparency. Our scheme can implement a photon number quantum non-demolition measurement with high efficiency ( 99%) which can distinguish 0, 1 and 2 photons. We then show how it is possible to construct a near determinis...
متن کاملThe quantum Zeno effect and quantum feedback in cavity QED
We explore experimentally the fundamental projective properties of a quantum measurement and their application in the control of a system’s evolution. We perform quantum non-demolition (QND) photon counting on a microwave field trapped in a very-high-Q superconducting cavity, employing circular Rydberg atoms as non-absorbing probes of light. By repeated measurement of the cavity field we demons...
متن کاملQuantum non-demolition measurement of photon-arrival using an atom-cavity system
A simple and efficient quantum non-demolition measurement (QND) scheme is proposed in which the arrival of a signal photon is detected without affecting the qubit state. The proposed QND scheme functions even if the ancillary photon is replaced with weak light composed of vacuum and one-photon states. Although the detection scheme is designed for entanglement sharing applications, it is also su...
