Scheme for generation of four-atom Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger states in an optical cavity

We propose a scheme for generating maximally GHZ state for four atoms trapped in a two-mode optical cavity via combination of cavity QED and linear optics system. The GHZ state can be not only generated deterministically with a single resonant interaction in cavity QED, but also can be prepared probabilistically based on cavity QED and linear optics elements. The fidelity of the entangled states is not affected by the atomic spontaneous, cavity decay, and imperfection of the photon-detectors. Finally, we briefly analyze and discuss the experimental feasibility of the proposed scheme.     

Scheme for Teleportation of Unknown Entangled Atomic States via Cavity Decay

We present a physical scheme to teleport an unknown atomic entangled state via cavity decay. In the teleportation process, four-particle Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger (GHZ) state is used as quantum channel, and two unknown entangled atoms and two of four atoms in the four-particle GHZ state are trapped in four leaky cavities,respectively. Based on the joint detection of the photons leak out from the four cavities, we can teleport an unknown entangled state to two other remote atoms with certain probability and high fidelity.

Implement a measurement of GHZ entanglement for a multipartite system via cavity QED

We propose a scheme for implementing a measurement of GHZ entanglement for a multipartite system via cavity QED. In the scheme the atoms interact simultaneously with a highly detuned cavity mode with the assistant of a classical field. The scheme is insensitive to the cavity decay and the thermal field. A set of GHZ states can be exactly distinguished via detecting atomic state in a simple way.     

Generation of Maximally Entangled States for Many Two-Level Atoms in a Thermal Cavity

We propose a scheme for generating maximally entangled states for two or more two-level atoms in a thermal cavity. The cavity frequency is large-detuned from the atomic transition frequency, so the Hamiltonian can be expressed as an effective form. The photon-number-dependent parts in the effective Hamiltonian are cancelled with the assistance of a strong classical field, thus the scheme is insensitive to both the cavity decay and the thermal field. The scheme can be used to generate multi-atom Bell-state and Greenberger-Horne-Zeiliner （GHZ） state.     

Scheme for Implementing Quantum Dense Coding and Teleportation with Tripartite Entangled State in Cavity QED

In this paper, we present a peculiar tripartite entangled state that is inequivalent to both the GHZ state and the W state, and then propose to implement efficient quantum information processing such as quantum dense coding and teleportation with this entangled state in cavity QED. In this scheme the atoms interact with a highly detuned cavity field with the assistance of a strong classical driven field. It does not require the transfer of quantum information between the atomic system and the cavity, and then our scheme is insensitive to both the cavity decay and the thermal field.     

Robust schemes for the generation of multipartite entanglement for remote atoms with cross-Kerr nonlinearity

Based on the interference effect of indistinguishable polarized photons leaking out of separated cavities with each atom trapped in separate cavity, using quantum nondemolition detection, we propose the robust schemes for the generation of N-atom GHZ state, three-atom W state and four-atom cluster state with a certain success probability. In Lamb-Dicke limit, the schemes do not require the simultaneous click of the photon-detectors. These made the schemes more realizable in experiments. Meanwhile, the advantage of the scheme is that the fidelity of the entangled states is not affected by the atomic spontaneous, cavity decay, and imperfection of the photodetectors. The schemes would be useful steps towards long-distance quantum communication.     

Alternative Scheme for Teleportation of Two-Atom Entangled State in Cavity QED

We have proposed an alternative scheme for teleportation of two-atom entangled state in cavity QED. It is based on the degenerate Raman interaction of a single-mode cavity field with a A-type three-level atom. The prominent feature of the scheme is that only one cavity is required, which is prior to the previous one. Moreover, the atoms need to be detected are reduced compared with the previous scheme. The experimental feasibility of the scheme is discussed. The scheme can easily be generalized for teleportation of N-atom GHZ entangled states. The number of the atoms needed to be detected does not increase as the number of the atoms in GHZ state increases.     

Entangled Fields in Multiple Cavities by Interaction with One Three-Level Atom

We present a scheme to entangle fields in multiple cavities. Our scheme is based on the resonant interaction of a Ξ-type three-level atom with the cavity fields for precalculated interaction time, which enables us to generate a quantum entangled Greenberger-Horn-Zeilinger (GHZ) state of fields in multiple cavities. In principle, the scheme can be also generalized to generate N-party GHZ state. The required experimental techniques are within the scope of what can be obtained in the microwave cavity QED set up.     

Controlled Quantum State Transfer with Separate Measurements in Cavity QED

An experimental scheme on controlled quantum state transfer is proposed in cavity quantum electrodynamics (QED) without joint Bell-state measurement (BSM). A quantum state can be transferred perfectly with the help of the cooperation of the third side by constructing a three-atom GHZ entangled state as the controlled channel. This scheme is insensitive to the cavity decay and the thermal field. The probability of the success in our scheme is 1.0.     

Generation of Multiple-Photon GHZ State via Cavity-Assisted Interaction

We propose a scheme for preparing multiple-photon GHZ state via cavity-assisted interaction. There are n-pair single-photon pulses successively injected and reflected from two sides of the cavity, which traps one atom. After the atomic state is measured, a 2n-photon GHZ state is produced. In the ideal case, the successful probability of the scheme is close to unity.     

Effect of Cavity Decay on Entanglement of Ladder-Type Three-Level Atoms and a Two-Mode Cavity Field

Considering the adiabatical approximation and the large detuning condition, we give the effective Hamiltonian of a ladder-type three levels atom interacting with a bimodal cavity field. If two identical three-level atoms are sent through the cavity one by one, a two-atom entangled state can be generated. With the choice of the appropriate interaction time, a maximally entangled state of two atoms can be obtained if decoherence effect is ignored. Moreover, we discuss the effect of cavity decay on four physical quantities including atomic population probability, residual entanglement of the first atom and the cavity field, concurrence between the two atoms, and fidelity for generating atomic EPR state, all of which decrease with the increase of cavity decay when the other parameters are fixed.     

Conditional Generation of Multiparticle Entanglement via Cavity QED

We propose a simple scheme to not only generate GHZ states and W states of the multiparticle but also form a new category of multiparticle entangled states by letting the λ-type three-level atoms simultaneously interacting with a coherent cavity field followed by the selective measurements on the cavity mode. We investigate the influence of the cavity dissipation on the generated entangled state and discuss the experimental feasibility of our scheme. It is shown that the intensity of the coherent cavity field plays an instructive role in contribution to state preparation process while the cavity decay and the detuning between the atoms and cavity mode result in the deterioration of the generated entangled state.     

A Feasible Scheme for Teleportation of Multi-atom Cat-like States in Thermal Cavities

An experimentally feasible scheme for implementing teleportation of multi-atom cat-like states in cavity QED is proposed. In the scheme the atoms interact simultaneously with a highly detuned cavity mode and are driven by a strong classical field, and the atomic state evolution is independent of cavity field state. Thus the scheme is insensitive to both the cavity decay and the thermal field, which is of importance from the experimental point of view. All the orthogonal and complete multi-atom GHZ states can be exactly distinguished only by one step, so our scheme can also be used for other purposes such as dense coding using multi-atom GHZ states as quantum channels.

Approximate and Conditional Teleportation of an Unknown Atomic-Entangled State Without Bell-State Measurement

A scheme for approximately and conditionally teleporting an unknown atomic-entangled state in cavity QED is proposed.It is the novel extension of the scheme of [Phys.Rev.A 69 (2004) 064302],where the state to be teleported is an unknown atomic state and where only a time point of system evolution and the corresponding fidelity implementing the teleportation are given.In fact,there exists multi-time points and the corresponding fidclities,which are shown in this paper and then are used to realize the approximate and conditional teleportation of the unknown atomic-entangled state.Naturally,our scheme does not involve the Bell-state measurement or an additional atom,which is required in the Bell-state measurement,only requiring one single-mode cavity.The scheme may be generalized to not only the teleportation of the cavity-mode-entangled-state by means of a single atom but also the teleportation of the unknown trapped-ion-entangled-state in a linear ion trap and the teleportation of the multi-atomic entangled states included in generalized GHZ states.     

Generation of Entangled Multi-atom Dicke States in Cavity Quantum Electrodynamics

We propose a scheme to generate two-atom maximally entangled state in cavity quantum electrodynamies （QED）. The scheme can 5e extended to generation of entangled multi-atom Dicke states if we control the interaction time of atoms with cavity modes. We use adiabatically state evolution under large atom-cavity detuning, so the scheme is insensitive to atomic spontaneous decay. The influence of cavity decay on fidelity and success probability is discussed.     

Robust Scheme for Entangling Two Distant Atoms

A robust scheme is presented for realizing entangled states for two atoms trapped in separate cavities connected by an optical fiber. The first atom is initially in a superposition of the excited state and an auxiliary ground state not coupled to the first cavity, while the second one is initially in the ground state coupled to the second cavity. The scheme involves two atom-cavity-fiber interactions accompanied by the monitoring of the cavity decay and atomic spontaneous emission. The two atoms evolve to an entangled state through exchanging an excitation after the first interaction. The states with the excitation failing to be transferred are eliminated when a photon is detected during the second interaction. Therefore, the scheme is insensitive to the decoherence effect and detection inefficiency.     

Dense Coding with Multi-Atom Entanglement Channel in Cavity QED

Dense coding of multi-atom entangled states in cavity QED is studied. If the quantum channel is generalized GHZ states, dense coding can be directly realized in a simply way. As for the partially entangled pure states, we propose a feasible protocol for entanglement concentration, and the emciency of information transmitted is calculated. The schemes are insensitive to the cavity decay and the field state, due to the fact that the interaction here is a large-detuned one between atoms and the cavity.     

Scheme for Preparation of a Peculiar Type of Tripartite Entangled State via Thermal Cavity

We propose a simple scheme for the generation of a peculiar tripartite entangled state via thermal cavity. The peculiar tripartite entangled state shares features of the GHZ and 14/ state simultaneously. The photon-numberdependent parts in the effective Hamiltonian are canceled with the assistance of a strong classical field, thus the scheme is insensitive to both the thermal field and the cavity decay. The only thing one needs to do is to modulate the interaction time only once.
