Abstract

We propose a scheme for implementing discrete quantum Fourier transform in cavity quantum electrodynamics (QED). The experimental implementation is appealingly simple because the combined effect of the complex controlled-Rk gate and SWAP gate operations required for implementing discrete quantum Fourier transform in the naive quantum circuit is replaced by the one-step CRkS gate, which can be directly implemented via atom–cavity interaction with the assistance of classical fields. We propose the detailed experimental procedure and analyze the experimental feasibility. The experimental implementation of the scheme would show the full power of quantum algorithm and would open wide prospects for more complicated quantum computation with atoms in QED.
