Engineering quantum states of light is a long standing goal in quantum optics which finds significant applications in quantum communication and quantum information technologies. On this poster, we demonstrate the production of different non-classical light states. Our protocol is based on the interaction of an impinging laser pulse with a single atom trapped in a high-finesse optical resonator. As a result of this interaction, the light pulse gets entangled with the internal state of the atom. A suitable subsequent measurement on the atomic state can be used to engineer different output light states. This allows us to produce single photons out of coherent input light with arbitrary temporal mode profiles [1] as well as to generate optical cat states [2].
