Teleportation-induced correlated quantum channels.
2009
Quantum teleportation of a n-qubit state performed using as entangled resource a general bipartite state of 2n qubits instead of n Bell states is equivalent to a correlated Pauli channel. This provides a new characterization of such channels in terms of many-body correlation functions of the teleporting media. Our model is then generalized to the Continuous Variable case. We show that this new representation provides a relatively simple method for determining whether a correlated quantum channel is able to reliably convey quantum messages by studying the entanglement properties of the teleportation mediating system.
Dynamical entanglement-transfer for quantum information networks
2004
A key element in the architecture of a quantum information processing network is a reliable physical interface between fields and qubits. We study a process of entanglement transfer engineering, where two remote qubits respectively interact with entangled two-mode continuous variable (CV) field. We quantify the entanglement induced in the qubit state at the expenses of the loss of entanglement in the CV system. We discuss the range of mixed entangled states which can be obtained with this set-up. Furthermore, we suggest a protocol to determine the residual entangling power of the light fields, inferring, thus, the entanglement left in the field modes which, after the interaction, are no lon…
Quantum Effects in Charged Particle Traps
2009
It is a fundamental feature of quantum mechanics that a group of particles can be in a state described by one common wavefunction which cannot be factored into individual particle wavefunctions; they are then said to be in an entangled state [294-296]. A measurement of the state of a constituent part of the entangled system determines the state of all the others. In a system that is not entangled, the states of the individual particles are determined independently. Ions isolated and trapped in vacuo in electromagnetic fields provide an unparalleled means of realizing long-lived entangled quantum states [297] through the coupling of the normal modes of oscillation in the trap by the long ran…
An optimized Bell test in a dynamical system
2010
The best realization of a Bell test depends on parameters linked to experimental settings. We report, for a class of two-qubit states, some optimized parameters that are useful to perform an optimized Bell test in a dynamical context. The time evolution of these optimized parameters, that present finite jumps, is investigated for two qubits in separated cavities.
Optomechanical to mechanical entanglement transformation
2008
We present a scheme for generating entanglement between two mechanical oscillators that have never interacted with each other by using an entanglement-swapping protocol. The system under study consists of a Michelson-Morley interferometer comprising mechanical systems embodied by two cantilevers. Each of them is coupled to a field mode via the radiation pressure mechanism. Entanglement between the two mechanical systems is set by measuring the output modes of the interferometer. We also propose a control mechanism for the amount of entanglement based on path-length difference between the two arms. © IOP Publishing Ltd and Deutsche Physikalische Gesellschaft.
Strong Quantum Solutions in Conflicting Interest Bayesian Games
2017
Quantum entanglement has been recently demonstrated as a useful resource in conflicting-interest games of incomplete information between two players, Alice and Bob [Pappa et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 114, 020401 (2015)]. The general setting for such games is that of correlated strategies where the correlation between competing players is established through a trusted common adviser; however, players need not reveal their input to the adviser. So far, the quantum advantage in such games has been revealed in a restricted sense. Given a quantum correlated equilibrium strategy, one of the players can still receive a higher than quantum average payoff with some classically correlated equilibrium str…
Continuous-Variable Quantum Teleportation of Discrete-Variable Entanglement
2013
We experimentally demonstrate continuous-variable quantum teleportation of discrete-variable entanglement in the form of a split single photon. Entanglement is optimally transferred for finite resource squeezing by tuning the teleporter's feedforward gain.
Controlled long-range interactions between Rydberg atoms and ions
2016
We theoretically investigate trapped ions interacting with atoms that are coupled to Rydberg states. The strong polarizabilities of the Rydberg levels increases the interaction strength between atoms and ions by many orders of magnitude, as compared to the case of ground state atoms, and may be mediated over micrometers. We calculate that such interactions can be used to generate entanglement between an atom and the motion or internal state of an ion. Furthermore, the ion could be used as a bus for mediating spin-spin interactions between atomic spins in analogy to much employed techniques in ion trap quantum simulation. The proposed scheme comes with attractive features as it maps the bene…
Anyons and transmutation of statistics via vacuum induced Berry phase
2004
We show that bosonic fields may present anyonic behavior when interacting with a fermion in a Jaynes-Cummings-like model. The proposal is accomplished via the interaction of a two-level system with two quantized modes of a harmonic oscillator; under suitable conditions, the system acquires a fractional geometric phase. A crucial role is played by the entanglement of the system eigenstates, which provides a two-dimensional confinement in the effective evolution of the system, leading to the anyonic behavior. For a particular choice of parameters, we show that it is possible to transmute the statistics of the system continually from fermions to bosons. We also present an experimental proposal…
Quantum state engineering in a cavity by Stark chirped rapid adiabatic passage
2006
We propose a robust scheme to generate single-photon Fock states and atom-photon and atom-atom entanglement in atom-cavity systems. We also present a scheme for quantum networking between two cavity nodes using an atomic channel. The mechanism is based on Stark-chirped rapid adiabatic passage (SCRAP) and half-SCRAP processes in a microwave cavity. The engineering of these states depends on the design of the adiabatic dynamics through the static and dynamic Stark shifts.
