Quantum photonic transistor controlled by an atom in a Floquet cavity-QED system
Abstract:
The photon transmission of a Floquet cavity quantum electrodynamic (QED) system containing three periodically modulated cavities interacting with a two-level atom is investigated. The input-output relations and the second-order correlation functions of the output fields are calculated. The system demonstrates the feature of a quantum photonic transistor, i.e., the photon transmission is controlled by the quantum states of the atom. This device can be used as a building block for various quantum information processing.
