Quantum Walk with Coherent Uncertainty in Electron-Laser Interaction

2020 · Conference on Lasers and Electro-Optics

We show that pulsed laser-driven free electrons undergo quantum walk with coherent uncertainty in the electron energy levels, characterized by their spread. We study this quantum walk experimentally and develop its analytic theory.

Generation of heralded entangled photon combs at telecom wavelength with rubidium Rydberg atom cavity QED

2020

We proposed a protocol to generate entangled photon-comb pairs using rubidium Rydberg atoms inside an optical cavity. Rydberg blockade isolates a single excitation and the heralding enables non-destructive detection of the presence of photon-pairs.
