  3. MEASUREMENT OF PHASE USING ATOMIC POPULATIONS: THE BLOCH-SIEGERT OSCILLATION Hamiltonian (Dipole Approx.): 3 A State Vector: 1 Coupling Parameter: g(t) = -go[exp(it+i)+c.c.]/2 Rotation Matrix:

  4. 3 Effective Schr. Eqn.: A Effective Hamiltonian: 1 Effective Coupling Parameter: (t)= -go[exp(-i2t-i2)+1]/2 Effective State Vector: 3 1

  5. 3 Periodic Solution: A Where: =exp(-i2t-i2) 1 For all n, we get the following: 3 1

  6. Energy 4 go 2 go go go go go 3 1 a1 a-2 go a2 a-1 b2 b1 b-2 b-1 0 ao bo go -2 go -4

  7. FULLY QUANTIZED VIEW: EXCITATION FIELD AS A COHERENT STATE RWA CASE: BEFORE EXCITATION: AFTER EXCITATION: ENTANGLED STATE: SEMI-CLASSICAL APPROXIMATION:

  8. Energy 4 go 2 go go go go go 3 1 a1 a-2 go a2 a-1 b2 b1 b-2 b-1 0 ao bo go -2 go -4

  9. NRWA CASE: BEFORE EXCITATION: AFTER EXCITATION: ENTANGLED STATE: where: SEMICLASSICAL APPROXIMATION: Yields the same set of coupled equations as derived semiclassically without RWA

  10. Energy go go 4 a1 go a-1 b1 b-1 2 ao bo go 0 go -2 -4

  11. Define: - (a-1-b-1) + (a-1+b-1) Which yields: go go Adiabatic following: a1 go a-1 b1 b-1 ao bo Solution: go go Similarly: Where (go/4) is small, kept to first order

  12. Reduced Equations: Where go go =g2o/4 is the Bloch-Siegert Shift. a1 go a-1 b1 b-1 ao bo The NET solution is: go go

  14. In the original picture, the solution is: 3 A where 1 Conventional Result s= 0

  15. 3 A IMPLICATIONS: 1 t t1 t2 When s is ignored, result of measurement of pop. of state 1 is independent of t1 and t2, and depends only on (t2- t1) When s is NOT ignored, result of measurement of pop. of state 1 depends EXPLICITLY ON t1, as well as on (t2- t1) Explit dependence on t1 enables measurement of x, the field phase at t1

  21. NET RESULT OF THIS PROCESS: DEGENERATE ENTANGLEMENT |Y>=(|1>|2 > - |2>|1>) /2 3 3 A B BOB ALICE 1 1 2 2

  22. NON-DEGENERATE ENTANGLEMENT: |(t)>=[|1>A|3>Bexp(-it-i) - |3>A|1>Bexp(-it-i)]/2. 3 3 A B 1 1 2 2 BB=BboCos( t+ ) BA=BaoCos( t+ ) VCO VCO

  23. |(t)>=[|1>A|3>Bexp(-it-i) - |3>A|1>Bexp(-it-i)]/2. Can be re-expressed as: Where:

  24. Recalling the NRWA solution: 3 A The following states result from p/2 excitation starting from different initial states: 1

  25. Post-Selection Measure |1>A ALICE: Measure |1>B x BOB: t t pSProbability of success on both measurements t1 t2 For Normal Excitation: (|1>A goes to |+>A, etc.) For Time-Reversed Excitation: (|+>A goes to |1>A, etc.)

  26. LIMITATIONS: The relative phase between A and B can not be measured this way Absolute time difference between two remote clocks can not be measured without sending timing signals. Quantum Mechanics does not allow one to get around this constraint. Teleportation of a quantum state representing a superposition of non-degenerate energy states can not be achieved without transmitting a timing signal
