Birefringent Cavity for CQED

By trapping a single atom in a Fabry-Perot cavity, we can realize strong coupling between the atom and the electromagnetic field, which may in the future be utilized to perform quantum gates in quantum computing. Previous experiments with Cesium atoms at the Caltech Quantum Optics group achieved...
