• With sufficiently high cross-Kerr nonlinearity N00N generation possible.
• Implementation via Phaseonium

Two possible methods
• As a high-refractive index material to obtain the large phase shifts– Problem: Requires entangled phaseonium
• As a cross-Kerr nonlinearity– Problem: Does not offer required phase shifts of as yet (experimentally)

N00N Generation via Phaseonium as a Phase Shifter
The needed large phase-shift of can be obtained viathe phaseonium as a high refractive index material.
However, the control required by the Quantum Fredkin gatenecessitates the atoms be in the GHZ state between level a and bWhich could be possible for upto 1000 atoms.
Question: Would 1000 atoms give sufficiently high refractive index?
N00N Generation via Phaseonium-Based Cross-Kerr
Nonlinearity• Cross-Kerr nonlinearities
via Phaseonium have been shown to impart phase shifts of 7controlled via single photon
• One really needs to input a smaller N00N as a control for the QFG as opposed to a single photon with N=30 roughly to obtain phase shift as large as .
• This suggests a bootstrapping approach
In the presence of single signal photon, and the strong drive a weak probe field experiences a phase shift
€
Implementation of QFG via Cavity QED
Ramsey Interferometry for atom initially in state b.
Dispersive coupling between the atom and cavity gives required conditional phase shift
Low-N00N via Entanglement Swapping: The N00N gun
• Single photon gun of Rempe PRL 85 4872 (2000) and Fock state gun of Whaley group quant-ph/0211134 could be extended to obtain a N00N gun from atomic GHZ states.
• GHZ states of few 1000 atoms can be generated in a single step via (I) Agarwal et al. PRA 56 2249 (1997) and (II) Zheng PRL 87 230404 (2001)
• By using collective interaction of the atoms with cavity a polarization entangled state of photons could be generated inside a cavity
• Which could be out-coupled and converted to N00N via linear optics.
€
N0 + 0N
Bootstrapping
• Generation of N00N states with N roughly 30 with
cavity QED based N00N gun.
• Use of Phaseonium to obtain cross-Kerr nonlinearity
and the N00N with N=30 as a control in the Quantum
Fredkin Gate to generate high N00N states.
• Strong light-atom interaction in cavity QED can
also be used to directly implement Quantum Fredkin
gate.
