Popis: We show that perfect revivals of Rabi oscillations are possible, under certain conditions, in the population inversion of a trapped ion. Based on this property, we find that Schr\"odinger cat states of the atomic motion are naturally generated by the unitary dynamics. Using a pair of symmetric and antisymmetric Schr\"odinger cat states of the motion, together with an electronic excited or ground state, we find that the interaction leads to four orthonormal maximally entangled states of the two partitions, which we identify as Bell states. We also study a quadratic Kerr-type evolution that is possible for short interaction times.
