| Abstract | |
In this work, we describe various protocols for the generation of nonclassical steady-state, supported mainly by the engineering selective Hamiltonian Jaynes-Cummings-type, and atomics reservoirs. We started presenting a framework to engineer nonlinear selective JaynesCummings-type interactions with numerical simulations to prove the effectiveness of our scheme. We further analyses how to apply these selective interactions to the preparation and protection of steady Fock states via atomic reservoir. This strategy combines the action of cavity damping mechanisms with that of an engineered atomic reservoir to drive an initial thermal distribution to a Fock equilibrium state. The same technique can be used to slice probability distributions in the Fock space, thus allowing the preparation of a variety of non-classical equilibrium states. Also we present a protocol to engineer upper-bound and sliced Jaynes-Cummings-type and anti-Jaynes-Cummings-type Hamiltonians in cavity quantum electrodynamics. In the upper-bounded Hamiltonians, the atom-field interaction is confined to a subspace of Fock states ranging from Ι0> up to Ι4>, while in the sliced interaction the Fock subspace ranges from ΙM> up to ΙM + 4>. We also show how to build upper-bounded and sliced Liouvillians irrespective of engineering Hamiltonians. The upper-bounded and sliced Hamiltonians and Liouvillians can be used, among other applications, to generate steady Fock states of a cavity mode and for the implementation of a quantum-scissors device for optical state truncation. Finally we propose a scheme for the preparation of steady entanglements in bosonic dissipative networks. We describe its implementation in a system of coupled cavities interacting with an engineered reservoir built up of three-level atoms. Emblematic bipartite (Bell and NOON) and multipartite (W -class) states can be produced with high fidelity and purity. (AU) | |
