Quantum-limited amplification via reservoir engineering.

چکیده
We describe a new kind of phase-preserving quantum amplifier which utilizes dissipative interactions in a parametrically coupled three-mode bosonic system. The use of dissipative interactions provides a fundamental advantage over standard cavity-based parametric amplifiers: large photon number gains are possible with quantum-limited added noise, with no limitation on the gain-bandwidth product. We show that the scheme is simple enough to be implemented both in optomechanical systems and in superconducting microwave circuits.

Decoherence control by quantum decoherence itself
We propose a general approach of protecting a two-level system against decoherence via quantum engineering of non-classical multiple superpositions of coherent states in a non-Markovian reservoir. The scheme surprisingly only uses the system-environment interaction responsible for the decoherence and projective measurements of the two-level system. We demonstrate the method on the example of an...
متن کاملResonance fluorescence in photonic band gap waveguide architectures: Engineering the vacuum for all-optical switching
We describe the spectral characteristics of the radiation scattered by two-level atoms (quantum dots) driven by a strong external field, and coupled to a photonic crystal radiation reservoir. We show that in the presence of strong variations with the frequency of the photonic reservoir density of states, the atomic, Mollow, sideband components of the scattered intensity can be strongly modified...
متن کاملOn the way to achieving long-lived mesoscopic superpositions through atom-driven field interaction
Carlos, PO Box 676, São Carlos, 13565-905, SP, Brazil. We present a proposal for the production of longer-lived mesoscopic superpositions which relies on two requirements: parametric amplification and squeezed vacuum reservoir for cavity-field states. Our proposal involves the interaction of a two-level atom with a cavity field which is simultaneously subjected to amplification processes. PACS ...
متن کاملTheory of remote entanglement via quantum-limited phase-preserving amplification
We show that a quantum-limited phase-preserving amplifier can act as a which-path information eraser when followed by heterodyne detection. This “beam splitter with gain” implements a continuous joint measurement on the signal sources. As an application, we propose heralded concurrent remote entanglement generation between two qubits coupled dispersively to separate cavities. Dissimilar qubit-c...
متن کاملProposal to produce long-lived mesoscopic superpositions through an atom-driven field interaction
The mastery of techniques for preparing cavity-field states through atom-field interaction in cavity quantum electrodynamics (QED) is crucial to many useful applications in quantum optics. As high-Q cavities have permitted the preparation of cavity-field superpositions of the form |Ψ〉 = ∣α eiφ 〉 + ∣α e−iφ 〉) / √ 2, with mean number of oscillator quanta |α| ≈ 10, mesoscopic quantum coherence in ...
