A Single Photon Source for Photon-atom Interaction Xingxing Xing Centre for Quantum Info. & Quantum Control, Dept. of Physics, Univ. of Toronto CQISC 2006, Calgary

CQISC 2006, Calgary3 Xingxing Xing, U.of Toronto Outline Why single photon source? Why photon-atom interaction? How to build up a source? What could we use the source for?

CQISC 2006, Calgary4 Xingxing Xing, U.of Toronto Motivation Necessity of a single photon source?  Investigate non-classical behaviors  Use in quant logic, quant crypto., etc.

CQISC 2006, Calgary5 Xingxing Xing, U.of Toronto Motivation Photons are ideal carrier for Quantum Info Processing and Q. Computation  easy to generate and manipulate  stable: not interact much with environment  LOQC scheme could be essential as part of quantum computation networks Problems  Photons don’t interact much with envi.  hard for storage  Experience losses during commu.  reconstruct states  They don’t interact with each other either!  two-qubit gates?

CQISC 2006, Calgary6 Xingxing Xing, U.of Toronto Motivation On the other hand, atoms are good for some aspects:  They interact strongly with each other  good candidate for two-qubit gates  Long decoherence time is possible: trapping  quantum memory and quantum repeater Combination of the two: Perfect!

Parametric down conversion Triggered deterministic Broadband:10 13 Hz Atomic: 10 6 Hz Comparison of Different Schemes of Single photon source

CQISC 2006, Calgary8 Xingxing Xing, U.of Toronto Methods PDC is good, except for the bandwidth Make use of cavity: confine the spectrum, also known as Optical Parametric Oscillator (OPO)

CQISC 2006, Calgary9 Xingxing Xing, U.of Toronto Doppler-free Saturated Spectroscopy Problem: narrow linewidth of atoms: ~6MHz Doppler shift  The frequency of a moving source/observer is shifted relative to the observer/source. NOTE: the real freq. doesn’t change!  For a moving observer  Vo: speed of observer: positive if the observer is moving away from the source negative if the observer is moving towards the source

CQISC 2006, Calgary10 Xingxing Xing, U.of Toronto Doppler Stationary and moving source

CQISC 2006, Calgary15 Xingxing Xing, U.of Toronto Potential Applications Electromagnetically Induced Transparency (EIT)  Quantum Memory  Quantum Repeater As a tool to investigate the fundamentals of QM through interaction with cold atoms/BEC  Gap between Classical and quantum world?  Single photon - single atom? For rent: a single photon source for free space QKD…
