Delayed choice experiment using atoms in optical cavity
Abstrak
In this article, we propose a method to realize the "delayed choice experiment" using ultra-cold atoms. Here we attempt to probe the "welcher-Weg" information without collapsing the wavefunction of the atom. This experiment consists of components built around proven techniques that are put together in novel configuration to preserve the coherence of the system during the measurement. The Ramsey interference is used to establish the wave nature of the atom and the particle nature of the atom is probed by detecting its internal state by performing a nondemolition measurement using an ultra-high finesse cavity. The coherence of the atom is preserved by adjusting the atom-cavity interaction time such that the state of the atom is unchanged when it emerges out of the cavity.
