Recently, a scheme （PRA 79, 022304） has been suggested for generating Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger state and cluster state with atomic ensembles based on the Rydberg blockade. Using similar resources as the earlier scheme, here we propose an experimentally feasible scheme of preparing arbitrary four-qubit W class of maximally and non- maximally entangled states with atomic ensembles in a single step. Moreover, we carefully analyze the realistic noises and predict that four-qubit W states can be produced with high fidelity （F - 0.994） via our scheme.展开更多

The deposition pattern of neutral chromium atoms in a laser standing wave with different laser power is discussed and the simulation result shows that the full width at half maximum （FWHM） of a nanometer stripe is 115nm and the contrast is 2.5：1 with laser power 3.93mW; the FWHM is 0.8nm and the contrast is 27：1 with laser power 16mW, the optimal laser power; but with laser power increasing to 50mW, the nanometer structure forms multi-crests and the quality worsens quickly with increasing laser power.展开更多

The differential and integral cross sections for electron impact excitation of lithium from the ground state 1s22s to excited states 1s22p, 1s23l （l=s, p, d） and 1s24l （l=s, p, d, f）at incident energies ranging fr...The differential and integral cross sections for electron impact excitation of lithium from the ground state 1s22s to excited states 1s22p, 1s23l （l=s, p, d） and 1s24l （l=s, p, d, f）at incident energies ranging from 5 eV to 25 eV are calculated by using a full relativistic distorted wave method. The target state wavefunctions are calculated by using the Grasp92 code. The continuum orbitals are computed in the distorted-wave approximation, in which the direct and exchange potentials among all the electrons are included. A part of the cross sections are compared with the available experimental data and with the previous theoretical values. It is found that, for the integral cross sections, the present calculations are in good agreement with the time-independent distorted wave method calculation, for differential cross sections, our results agree with the experimental data very well.展开更多
