  13. High-N00N Meets Phaseonium

  14. With sufficiently high cross-Kerr nonlinearity N00N generation possible. Implementation via Phaseonium Quantum Fredkin Gate (QFG) N00N GenerationKT Kapale and JPD, quant-ph/0612196. Gerry and Campos, PRA 64 063814 (2001)

  15. 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) Quantum Fredkin Gate (QFG) N00N GenerationKT Kapale and JPD, quant-ph/0612196.

  16. Phaseonium for High Index of Refraction Re Im Im Re With larger density high index of refraction can be obtained

  17. N00N Generation via Phaseonium as a Phase Shifter The needed large phase-shift of  can be obtained via the phaseonium as a high refractive index material. However, the control required by the Quantum Fredkin gate necessitates the atoms be in the GHZ state between level a and b Which could be possible for upto 1000 atoms. Question: Would 1000 atoms give sufficiently high refractive index?

  18. Cross-Kerr nonlinearities via Phaseonium have been shown to impart phase shifts of 7controlled 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 N00N Generation via Phaseonium-Based Cross-Kerr Nonlinearity In the presence of single signal photon, andthe strong drive a weak probe field experiences a phase shift

  19. 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

  20. 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. Low-N00N via Entanglement Swapping: The N00N gun

  21. 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. Bootstrapping
