摘要
We discuss the application of dipole blockade techniques for the preparation of single-atom and single-photon sources. A deterministic protocol is given for loading a single atom in an optical trap, as well as ejecting a controlled number of atoms in a desired direction. A single-photon source with,an optically, controlled beamlike emission pattern is described.
