Entanglement concentration and teleportation of multipartite entangled states in an ion trap

We propose an effective scheme for the entanglement concentration of a four-particle state via entanglement swapping in an ion trap. Taking the maximally entangled state after concentration as a quantum channel, we can faithfully and determinatively teleport quantum entangled states from Alice to Bob without the joint Bell-state measurement. In the process of constructing the quantum channel, we adopt entanglement swapping to avoid the decrease of entanglement during the distribution of particles. Thus our scheme provides a new prospect for quantum teleportation over a longer distance. Furthermore, the success probability of our scheme is 1.0.     

Controlled Teleportation of Multi-qutrit Quantum Information by Swapping Entanglement

We present a scheme for teleporting multi-qutrit quantum information from a sender to a receiver via the control of many agents in a network. Agents＇s control parameters are obtained via quantum entanglement swapping. In our scheme, Zhang and Man＇s QSS protocol [Phys. Rev. A 72 （2005） 022303] based on Bell-state entanglement swapping is generalized to a qutrit case. Our scheme owns the advantage of having higher code capacity and better security than the work [Commun. Theor. Phys. 44 （2005） 847] on controlled teleportation for multi-qubit.     

Probabilistic teleportation of an unknown N-atom state using a two-atom nonmaximally entangled state in cavity QED

We present a scheme for realizing probabilistic teleportation of an unknown N-atom state via cavity QED. This scheme requires only a nonmaximally entangled pair to be used as a quantum channel, so the requirement of entanglement is reduced. In addition, our scheme does not involve the Bell-state measurement and is insensitive to the cavity decay, which is important from the experimental point of view. If the quantum channel is a two-atom maximally entangled state, teleportation of an unknown N-atom state can be realized by a simpler scheme via cavity QED.     

Scheme for teleporting an unknown atomic state to any node in a quantum communication network

We propose a scheme for teleporting an unknown atomic state. In order to realize the teleportation to any node in a quantum communication network, an n-atom Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger (GHZ) state is needed, which is utilized as the quantum channel. From this n-atom GHZ state, two-node entanglement of processing and receiving teleported states can be obtained through the quantum logic gate manipulation. Finally, for the unequally weighted GHZ state, probabilistic teleportation is shown.     

Teleporting an Unknown Two-qubit Entangled State via Ion-Trap Systems

We propose a scheme for teleportation of an unknown two-qubit entangled state via trapped ions. In this scheme, we use the GHZ state as a quantum channel and the success probability can reach 1. The distinct advantage of our scheme is insensitive to the heating of the vibrational mode. In addition, Bell-state measurement is not required.     

Long-distance quantum teleportation assisted with free-space entanglement distribution

Faithful long-distance quantum teleportation necessitates prior entanglement distribution between two communicated locations. The particle carrying on the unknown quantum information is then combined with one particle of the entangled states for Bell-state measurements, which leads to a transfer of the original quantum information onto the other particle of the entangled states. However in most of the implemented teleportation experiments nowadays, the Bell-state measurements are performed even before successful distribution of entanglement. This leads to an instant collapse of the quantum state for the transmitted particle, which is actually a single-particle transmission thereafter. Thus the true distance for quantum teleportation is, in fact, only in a level of meters. In the present experiment we design a novel scheme which has overcome this limit by utilizing fiber as quantum memory. A complete quantum teleportation is achieved upon successful entanglement distribution over 967 meters in public free space. Active feed-forward control techniques are developed for real-time transfer of quantum information. The overall experimental fidelities for teleported states are better than 89.6%, which signify high-quality teleportation.     

Quantum Secure Direct Communication Using W State

A theoretical scheme of quantum secure direct communication using teleportation is proposed. In the scheme, the sender needs to prepare a class of three-particle W states to use as quantum channel. The two communicators may communicate after they test the security of the quantum channel. The security of the protocol is ensured by quantum entanglement and quantum no-cloning theorem. The receiver can obtain the secret message determinately if the quantum channel is secure.     

Quantum Teleportation and Superdense Coding via W-Class States

Abstract According to the protocol of Agrawal et al., we propose a cavity QED scheme for realization of teleportation and dense coding. Instead of using EPR states and GHZ states, our scheme is more insensitive to the loss of one particle by using a W-class state as a quantum channel. Besides, our scheme is immune to thermal field, and does not require the cavity to remain in the vacuum state throughout the procedure.     

A New Scheme for Probabilistic Teleportation and Its Potential Applications

We propose a novel scheme to probabilistically teleport an unknown two-level quantum state when the information of the partially entangled state is only available for the sender. This is in contrast with the fact that the receiver must know the non-maximally entangled state in previous typical schemes for the teleportation. Additionally, we illustrate two potential applications of the novel scheme for probabilistic teleportation from a sender to a receiver with the help of an assistant, who plays distinct roles under different communication conditions, and our results show that the novel proposal could enlarge the applied range of probabilistic teleportation.     

Entanglement swapping of continuous variable using squeezed vacuum states

We present a realistic scheme for the entanglement swapping of continuous variable, in which a two-mode squeezed vacuum state serves as a quantum channel. The position sum and momentum difference of two local modes are measured. By taking the input entangled state also as a two-mode squeezed vacuum state, we investigate the average fidelity and the von Neumann entropy of the output state. The results show that the perfect teleportation can be achieved by increasing the squeezing of the quantum channel and that any nonzero squeezing in both the quantum channel and the input entangled state is sufficient to swap the entanglement.     

Teleportation of a three—particle entangled W state

We have investigated the problem of teleporting a three-particle entangled W state and we propose a scheme based on entanglement spapping to complete the teleportation.We also put forward a scheme for the teleportation of a general W state by using nonmaximally entangled quantum channels.The probability of success of the latter scheme is obtained.     

Thermal entanglement and teleportation of a thermally mixed entangled state of a Heisenberg chain through a Werner state

The thermal entanglement and teleportation of a thermally mixed entangled state of a two-qubit Heisenberg XXX chain under the Dzyaloshinski Moriya （DM） anisotropic antisymmetric interaction through a noisy quantum channel given by a Werner state is investigated. The dependences of the thermal entanglement of the teleported state on the DM coupling constant, the temperature and the entanglement of tbe noisy quantum channel are studied }n detail for both the ferromagnetic and the antiferromagnetic cases. The result shows that a minimum entanglement of the noisy quantum channel must be provided in order to realize the entanglement teleportation. The values of fidelity of the teleported state are also studied for these two cases. It is found that under certain conditions, we can transfer an initial state with a better fidelity than that for any classical communication protocol.

Quantum Teleportation Through a Two-Qubit Heisenberg XXZ Chain

We consider a two-qubit Heisenberg XXZ chain as a resource for quantum teleportation via the standard teleportation protocol To. The effects of anisotropic on teleportation fidelity and entanglement are studied in detail. We find anisotropic not only improves the criticM temperature Tc and criticM magnetic field Bc, beyond which quantum teleportation is inferior to classicM communication protocol, but also enhances the fidelity for fixed magnetic field B and temperature T. For entanglement teleportation, the effects of magnetic field on average fidelity and output entanglement are studied.     

Short-Distance Teleportation of an Arbitrary Two-Qubit State Via a Bell State

We propose a scheme for teleportation of an arbitrary two-qubit state by using a Bell state as the quantum channel working together with an auxiliary qubit. Our scheme needs less entanglement resource, but at the cost of shortening teleportation distance. This is because that in order to successfully recover the teleported state, both sender and receiver need to implement quantum-gate operations on the shared auxiliary qubit. So, the auxiliary qubit must be close to both sender and receiver. Otherwise, the sender and receiver cannot carry out quantum-gate operations on it. Thus, our scheme is invalid for long-distance teleportation. But for short-distance teleportation, our scheme is an optimal choice because it requires less entanglement resource. From a practical point of view, our scheme is very promising for application in quantum teleportation on chip.

In this article,we derive the explicit entanglement and fidelity expressions for a larger class of two-qubit states,namely,a seven-parameter family of so called X-states.The analytical expressions of the entanglement,the output entanglement and the average fidelity are obtained for this general model by using the concept of concurrence and average fidelity.We study the relations between quantum entanglement,the output entanglement,and the average fidelity for standard teleportation of one-qubit and partial teleportation of two-qubit state.We discover that the average fidelity and entanglement is not a simple dependence relation.The higher entangled system is helpful for teleportation.     

振幅阻尼信道量子隐形传态保真度恢复机理

在振幅阻尼信道上进行量子隐形传态的过程中, 量子Bell纠缠态将发生退相干, 导致隐形传态质量下降甚至通信失败. 为克服该影响, 本文提出了一种Bell纠缠态补偿方法. 在估计振幅阻尼信道参数的基础上, 将对纠缠态的补偿分为纠缠退相干发生之前的预补偿以及 经历量子振幅阻尼信道之后的匹配补偿两部分. 前者在纠缠源处进行, 后者在两个量子通信 用户处进行, 预补偿及匹配补偿参数与信道特性参数相关. 纠缠补偿完成后, 再进行隐形传态. 理论推导与性能分析结果表明, 相比于不进行纠缠补偿及仅在发生退相干之后进行的纠缠补偿, 本方法能够获得更高的隐形传态保真度, 适当调整补偿参数, 可使保真度接近于1, 对克服纠缠 退相干带来的隐形传态质量下降问题具有一定的意义.
