摘要：
We study the nonlinearities due to direct perturbation to the dark state in coherent population trapping (CPT). To extract the susceptibilities of the CPT atoms with respect to probe fields, we treat the CPT dressing fields as control parameters and redefine susceptibilities with respect to the probe fields alone. With such a redefinition, we reveal that a CPT-based system displays an ultralarge, resonantly enhanced second-order cross susceptibility χ(2) together with vanishing linear absorption. Physically, this effect is based on the CPT dark-state shift, which is traced to the six-photon parametric processes for all involved fields (including the dressing and probe fields). Because of the lack of the direct perturbation, this effect is absent in the electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT)-based system, in which only resonantly enhanced third-order (Kerr) susceptibility χ(3) is obtainable but much weaker than the second-order one. The second-order nonlinearity, because of its stronger effect, can be more sensitive for quantum nonlinear optics at low light levels than the third-order nonlinearity.
摘要：
It is shown that the reservoir engineering can be controlled by the collective phase Phi of three coherent fields interacting with a closed Delta-type atom. We find that the atomic system acts as a one-channel dissipation reservoir when Phi = 0(pi), but it behaves as a two-channel dissipation reservoir for Phi not equal 0(pi). The phase-dependent reservoir engineering provides a convenient way to produce robust two-mode squeezing and entanglement, which may find potential applications in quantum information processing.

摘要：
We present a scheme to generate unitarily two-mode and four-mode field squeezing in optical cavities with the near-resonantly dressed three-level atoms in the Λ configuration. The dressing fields open two coherent population trapping (CPT) windows, within which the atoms stay predominantly in the dark state and yield strong nonlinearities for both the dressing fields themselves and the other applied fields. The two-mode squeeze operator is separated from degrees of freedom of atoms in a common CPT window, and the multimode squeeze operator is segregated in different CPT windows. The resulting two-mode and multimode interaction strengths are at least one order higher than in the previous dispersive schemes, where all fields are far off resonant with the atoms. The present near-resonant scheme is robust to spontaneous emission since atoms are nearly trapped in a long-lived superposition state.

摘要：
Due to either coherent or dissipative interactions with the coherent population trapping (CPT)-based atoms, the evolutions of the Bogoliubov modes towards the vacuum states have been shown to lead to second-order squeezing of the involved optical fields. Here we push the CPT-based dissipative interactions towards higher-order squeezing, which is not simply determined by second-order squeezing hut instead by different criteria involving higher-order moments, It is shown that the CPT-based atomic reservoir supports the dissipative evolution of the Bogoliubov modes almost completely to the vacuum states and then yields almost perfect fourth-order squeezing (90% similar to 100%), The present mechanism is robust against spontaneous emission since the atoms stay largely in the ground states. As a by-product, a comparison is given with two-level atoms, in which the excitation of a large fraction reduces the degree of higher-order squeezing.

摘要：
Narrow linewidth and high intensity of the fluorescence spectra are two important elements to improve the accuracy and efficiency of related practical measurements, but so far they have not been achievable simultaneously. We propose a new approach to sharpen the linewidth and to heighten the intensity simultaneously. Rather than double coherent mechanisms, it uses the spontaneous emission of inverted atoms in a cavity below the threshold as a resource for feedback control. The spontaneous feedback is simpler in principle and easier to realize technologically, and represents a kind of new way of controlling spontaneous emission.

摘要：
There are two decisive factors for quantum correlations in reservoir engineering, but they are strongly reversely dependent on the atom-field nonlinearities. One is the squeezing parameter for the Bogoliubov modes-mediated collective interactions, while the other is the dissipative rates for the engineered collective dissipations. Exemplifying two-level atomic ensembles, we show that the moderate nonlinearities can compromise these two factors and thus enhance remarkably two-mode squeezing and entanglement of different spin atomic ensembles or different optical fields. This suggests that the moderate nonlinearities of the two-level systems are more advantageous for applications in quantum networks associated with reservoir engineering.
摘要：
We propose a theoretical method to obtain two-collective mode entanglement in a four-level atomic ensemble. One collective mode is produced due to the Raman atomic coherence, the acquisition of another collective mode is ascribed to the quantum interference in two four-wave mixing processes. We show that two-collective mode and two original single modes are also in the entangled state in experimentally accessible parameter regimes.
摘要：
We explore the asymmetric Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) steering of field modes via atomic coherent effects. A resonant four-level system in double-cascade configuration is under our consideration, where the atoms are excited by the applied fields from one cascade channel and two cavity modes are generated from the other cascade transition. The results show two cavity modes are suitable for achieving the steady-state one-way EPR steering. We analyze the physics in terms of the dressed-atom Bogoliubov-field-mode approach. It is found that one of two Bogoliubov modes is mediated by the resonant coupling of the dressed atoms and the other is decoupled from them. This leads to the so-called one-channel dissipation, by which the dressed atoms absorb the average excitations from one transformed mode and then two original modes are pulled into the asymmetric correlation. Remarkably, the present scheme is focused on the full-resonant interaction not only between the classical fields, the cavity modes and the bare atoms, but also between the Bogoliubov modes and dressed atoms, which will induce the one-way steering simply via adjusting the intensity of an external field. Furthermore, the EPR steering could occur between the field modes with the large frequency difference, such as optical and microwave fields, which is more useful for the practical quantum communication. Based on the one-channel dissipation, the obtainable one-way EPR steering is rather against the dynamic fluctuations and is regardless of the initial state.

摘要：
We investigate the quantum state transfer between two membranes in coupled cavities for the case before the cavity fields arrive at the steady state. Three different schemes are presented. The first one is based on the double swapping, i.e., one of the two collective cavity modes interacts with one membrane first and later with the other membrane. The second scheme is to use the mechanical dark mode, which decouples from the cavity fields and evolves adiabatically from one mechanical mode to the other. The third scheme depends on the interactions of the two oscillators with the same continuous, collective cavity mode. In comparison, the first scheme is more robust to the mechanical thermal noise, the second one depresses the cavity dissipation, and the third one merges the merits of the two former schemes.

摘要：
We present a cavity dissipation scheme to prepare a hybrid system of an atomic ensemble and a moving mirror in squeezed and entangled states. This scheme is based on four-wave mixing in the atoms and radiation pressure on the mirror, both of which combine to lead to Bogoliubov interactions of the atoms and the mirror with the cavity fields. Under adiabatic conditions, the cavity fields cause the hybrid Bogoliubov modes to evolve into the vacuum states, which correspond to the two-mode squeezed and entangled states. The dependence of the hybrid entanglement on the system parameters is also presented in and beyond the Bogoliubov interactions.
