A Single-Photon Server with Just One Atom

Abstract

One of the most promising platforms for deterministic quantum information processing is formed by a network of single atoms in cavities interconnected via photon exchange. Using neutral atoms has several advantages: of the art trapping techniques and devising new cavity cooling schemes [1] we have been able to extend this time up to a minute, and are now in a situation where a single neutral atom can be trapped in our cavity almost all of the time. Here we present an experiment in which a single neutral atom trapped in a cavity is used to generate single photons in a controlled way. [2] The quality of these photons is such that they could be used for quantum information processing. Our setup could therefore operate as a single-photon server for such experiments.
