Quantum state engineering and precision metrology using state-insensitive light traps.
Precision metrology and quantum measurement often demand that matter be prepared in well-defined quantum states for both internal and external degrees of freedom. Laser-cooled neutral atoms localized in a deeply confining optical potential satisfy this requirement. With an appropriate choice of wavelength and polarization for the optical trap, two electronic states of an atom can experience the...

متن کاملA search algorithm for quantum state engineering and metrology
In this paperwe present a search algorithm thatfinds useful optical quantum states which can be createdwith current technology.We apply the algorithm to the field of quantummetrologywith the goal offinding states that canmeasure a phase shift to a high precision. Our algorithm efficiently produces a number of novel solutions: wefind experimentally ready schemes to produce states that show signi...
متن کاملRetrodictive Quantum State Engineering
This thesis is concerned with retrodiction and measurement in quantum optics. The latter of these two concepts is studied in particular form with a general optical multiport device, consisting of an arbitrary array of beam-splitters and phase-shifters. I show how such an apparatus generalizes the original projection synthesis technique, introduced as an in principle technique to measure the can...
متن کاملRetrodictive quantum optical state engineering
Although it has been known for some time that quantum mechanics can be formulated in a way that treats prediction and retrodiction on an equal footing, most attention in engineering quantum states has been devoted to predictive states, that is, states associated with a preparation event. Retrodictive states, which are associated with a measurement event and propagate backwards in time, are also...
