N2 - We propose a method of entangling two spinor Bose-Einstein condensates using a geometric phase gate. The scheme relies upon only the ac Stark shift and a common controllable optical mode coupled to the spins. Our scheme allows for the creation of an SzSz-type interaction where Sz is the total spin. The geometric phase gate can be executed in times of the order of 2πâ., /G, where G is the magnitude of the Stark shift. In contrast to related schemes which relied on a fourth-order interaction to produce entanglement, this is a second-order interaction in the number of atomic transitions. Closed expressions for the entangling phase are derived and the effects of decoherence due to cavity decay, spontaneous emission, and incomplete de-entangling of the light to the Bose-Einstein condensates are analyzed.
