Entangled W State Generation via Adiabatic Passage in Cavity QED

摘要

A scheme is proposed to generate W state of N atoms trapped in a cavity,based on adiabatic passage alongdark state.Taking advantage of adiabatic passage,the atoms have no probability of being excited and thus the atomicspontaneous emission is suppressed.The scheme is simple.It does not need to adjust the interaction time accurately,anddoes not need to prepare the cavity field in one-photon state.Numerical simulation shows that the successful probabilityof the scheme increases with the increasing of the atom number.
