Description
We are designing a setup composed of a hollow hemispherical mirror, an active boundary condition and a trapped ion for application in quantum networks. The ion will be held in the focal point of the system so that its spontaneous emission will be controlled both by the hemispherical mirror and by the active boundary condition. The hemispherical mirror will suppress the emission at high angles, whereas the active boundary condition will control dynamically the emission at low angles along the optical axis. The setup aims at increasing the entanglement rate of quantum networks based on free space atoms and may be adapted for deterministic transfer of quantum information between two separated atoms.
