Abstract:Atom-photon entanglement provides an essential resource for quantum communication and quantum computation. How to conveniently and efficiently achieve a maximal entanglement between atomic system and spontaneous emission field has been a challenging task. Here, we present a simple, yet we believe a powerful, method to generate entangled states between photons and an N-type atomic system. Beside the achievement of a nearly perfect entanglement, we also examine evidence for a link between entanglement and popula… Show more
