摘要
For a single ion trapped in a harmonic potential under localization conditions beyond the Lamb-Dicke region, a motional wave packet can be coherently split by irradiating the trapped ion with appropriate counterpropagating traveling-wave laser pulses tuned to the second-sideband Raman resonance. Quantum interference between the split wave packets gives rise to interference fringes in the spatial probability distribution when the wave packets spatially overlap at a certain time during a periodic oscillation. An ion-trap interferometer is proposed on the basis of the wave-packet splitter in combination with quantum tomographic determination of the spatial interference fringes. [S1050-2947(97)07712-3].
