Dr. Igor Dotsenko Laboratoire Kastler Brossel, Collège de France, Paris "Quantum state reconstruction of a single photon shared by two cavities" Our two ‘photon boxes’, i.e. microwave cavities made of two high-quality mirrors, are capable of storing quanta of light for very long time. Individual, highly excited atoms in circular Rydberg states, passing through the boxes one by one, serve us to prepare, manipulate and measure the photons’ quantum state in real time. In this talk I will present the…
