Abstract :
We present a scheme able to protect the quantum states of a cavity mode against the decohering effects of photon loss. The scheme preserves quantum states with a definite parity, and it is implemented by sending single atoms, one by one, through the cavity. By solving numerically the exact master equation of the system we show that the protection of simple quantum states could be experimentally demonstrated using presently available experimental apparatus.
