Dissipation in systems of linear and nonlinear quantum scissors

  • 1. Institute of Physics, Adam Mickiewicz University, ulica Umultowska 85, 61-614 Poznan (Poland)

Description

We analyse the truncation of coherent states up to a single-photon Fock state by applying linear quantum scissors, utilizing the projection synthesis in a linear optical system, and nonlinear quantum scissors, implemented by periodically driven cavity with a Kerr medium. Dissipation effects on optical truncation are studied in the Langevin and master equation approaches. Formulae for the fidelity of lossy quantum scissors are found
