Quantum information with cold atoms and non-classical light
Abstract:
This project aims to develop versatile, robust sources of
non-classical light for optical quantum information processing and
quantum memory. Optical parametric oscillator methods are being
developed to produce squeezed states, Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen correlated
states, and single-photon states at wavelengths and bandwidths suitable
for resonant interaction with cold trapped rubidium atoms. The quantum
states produced are useful for quantum information processing, and
moreover can be stored and retrieved from a cold atomic ensemble (an
atomic memory).
