Implementing Deutsch-Jozsa algorithm using light shifts and atomic ensembles
Shubhrangshu Dasgupta, Asoka Biswas, Girish Saran Agarwal · Physical Review A · 2005
We present an optical scheme to implement the Deutsch-Jozsa algorithm using ac Stark shifts. The scheme uses an atomic ensemble consisting of four-level atoms interacting dispersively with a field. This leads to a Hamiltonian in the atom-field basis which is quite suitable for quantum computation. We show how one can implement the algorithm by performing proper one- and two-qubit operations. We emphasize that in our model the decoherence is expected to be minimal due to our usage of atomic ground states and freely propagating photon.
