A Scheme for the Generation of Multi-Mode Schrodinger Cat States
A scheme is proposed for the generation of superpositions of multi-mode coherent states, i.e. multi-mode Schrodinger cat states. In the scheme a V-type three-level atom is sent through many cavities filled with coherent fields. The whole system is entangled via the Raman atom-field interaction. Then the detection of the atorn leaves the cavity system in a multi-mode cat state. Under certain conditions, such a cat state is identical to a Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger state and thus can be used to test local realistic theories.
