Aim
The proposal is focused on both experimental and theoretical investigation of quantum information that can be stored and manipulated in trapped neutral atoms as an alternative to the well-known proposals for the ion-trap quantum computers. Two extreme cases—two isolated atoms and a macroscopic ensemble of atoms (up to 109)-will be considered having the following objectives in mind:
(*) To study theoretically and develop new experimental methods for creation and characterization of stable entangled states of atoms (cavity quantum electrodynamics and interaction with squeezed light)
(*) To develop novel methods for measuring and monitoring internal states of qubits (trapped atoms)
(*) To identify the most suitable approaches to quantification of quantum information in experiments.
