Abstract

We study the possible limitations and sources of decoherence in the scheme for the deterministic generation of polarization-entangled photons, recently proposed by Gheri et al (Gheri K M et al 1998 Phys. Rev. A 58 R2627) based on an appropriately driven single atom trapped within an optical cavity. We consider in particular the effects of laser intensity fluctuations, photon losses and atomic motion.
