Abstract :
We demonstrate the coherent control of an excited atom in photonic crystals, in which its relaxation is strongly suppressed compared with that in the control using the photonic bandgap (PBG) switching. This suggests the possibility of extending the atomic system to a low-loss quantum logic gate for quantum information processing.
