Long-term stability of continuous-wave emission from an ion-cavity system
journal contribution
posted on 2023-06-08, 06:47 authored by Matthias KellerMatthias Keller, B Lange, K Hayasaka, W Lange, H WaltherCombining the technologies of ion-trapping and cavity quantum-electrodynamics, we have achieved uninterrupted coupling of a single ion to a mode of an optical resonator up to a time-scale of 10^3 seconds. The interaction of ion and field was implemented as a cavity-assisted Raman-transition from the ground state to an excited metastable state. The coupling was probed by detecting the photons emitted from the resonator upon excitation of the cavity mode. We have optimized the system parameters to obtain a high emission-rate. The experiment provides a basis for the controlled generation of single-photon pulses and other cavity quantum-electrodynamics effects relying on the continuous interaction of a single particle with a quantized field.

Notes
The paper investigates long-term effects in ion-trap cavity-QED. W.L. led the team and oversaw the experiment. M.K. was the principal scientist performing the largest share of laboratory work, designing and constructing important parts of the setup. The remaining authors contributed to the laser system (K.H., B.L.) and funding (H.W.).Full text available
