Abstract
Based on presently available experimental advancements, we present a theoretical technique to generate single-mode electromagnetic-field entangled NOON states between two resonators. A two-level atom interacts dispersively with a standing wave field, which results in Bragg diffraction and thus a superposition of atomic external degrees of freedom. Later, a resonant interaction of the atom with two different resonators in the presence of a Ramsey field and a Stark field entangles the two resonators in their NOON state. We further discuss the experimental parameters necessary to realize the scheme in the laboratory and calculate the corresponding success probability.
