Efficient Multiparty-to-Multiparty Quantum Secret Sharing via Continuous Variable Operations

The one-to-multiparty quantum secret sharing scheme [Phys. Rev. A 71 （2005） 044301] proposed recently is extended to a multiparty-to-multiparty case. Furthermore, the continuous variable operations are employed in the extended scheme to replace the specific discrete unitary operations used in the original scheme. The complete randomicity of the continuous variable characterizing the unitary operations can ensure the security of secret sharing. Moreover, the present scheme is compared with the recent similar scheme [Phys. Rev. A 72 （2005） 012304]. It is found that the efficiency of the present scheme is n times of that of the previous one.

类氢原子核质量对电子状态的影响

在孤立的两体复合系统中,讨论其中一体的变化如何影响另一体的状态,有助于了解单粒子混合态与纯态的关系.本文讨论5个孤立的一维类氢原子模型系统,原子核的质量互不相同.这5个两体(电子与原子核)复合系统的相对运动状态都处于纠缠态,其中电子状态都用约化密度矩阵表示的混合态描述.在原子核质量趋近无穷大的一维氢原子模型中,电子处于纯态.为比较这里的纯态和混合态,在位置表象中计算了这些混合态的纯度、它们分别与纯态的保真度、以及所有这些态的相干性.研究表明,原子核的质量越大,纯度和保真度越接近1,混合态的相干性与纯态的也越接近.这样的纯态及其相干性可以是这种混合态及其相干性的近似,并与原子核及库仑相互作用有关.     

Calculation of Covariance Matrix for Multi-mode Gaussian States in Decoherence Processes

We investigate the dynamics of n single-mode continuous variable systems in a generic Gaussian state under the influence of the independent and correlated noises making use of the characteristic function method. In two models the bath is assumed to be a squeezed thermal one. We derive an explicit input-output expression between the initial and final covariance matrices. As an example, we study the evolution of entanglement of three-mode Gaussian state embedded in two noisy models.     

基于信道估计的自适应连续变量量子密钥分发方法

为使连续变量量子密钥分发协议获得稳定的密钥生成率,需要根据信道变化动态调整发送光脉冲的强度.将光纤量子信道看作加性玻色量子高斯信道,给出高斯态通过玻色量子高斯信道仍得到高斯态的证明过程.通过平衡零差检测后,采用最大似然估计法得到了信道参数,进而根据估计的噪声大小自适应调整Alice发送的光脉冲的强度,从而获得稳定的密钥生成率. 关键词： 量子密钥分发 连续变量 玻色量子高斯信道 信道估计     

Enhancement of Continuous Variable Entanglement in Four-Wave Mixing due to Atomic Memory Effects

We explore the effects of atomic memory on quantum correlations of two-mode light fields from four-wave mixing. A three-level atomic system in A configuration is considered, in which the atomic relaxation times are comparable to or longer than the cavity relaxation times and thus there exists the atomic memory. The quantum correlation spectrum in the output is calculated without the adiabatic elimination of atomic variables. It is shown that the continuous variable entanglement is enhanced over a wide range of the normalized detuning in the intermediate and bad cavity cases compared with the good cavity case. In some situations more significant enhancement occurs at sidebands.

基于硬件同步的四态离散调制连续变量量子密钥分发

在连续变量量子密钥分发系统中,同步技术是确保通信双方时钟和数据一致的关键技术.本文通过巧妙设计发送端和接收端仪器的硬件时序,采用时域差拍探测方式和峰值采集技术,实验实现了可硬件同步的四态离散调制连续变量量子密钥分发.通信双方在设计好的硬件同步时序下可实现时钟的恢复和数据的自动对齐,无需借助软件算法实现数据的对齐.本文采用了加拿大滑铁卢大学Norbert Lütkenhaus研究组提出的针对连续变量离散调制协议的安全密钥速率计算方法.该方法需计算出接收端所测各种平移热态的一阶矩和二阶(非中心)矩,以此为约束条件结合凸优化算法可计算出安全密钥速率.计算过程中无需假设信道为线性信道,无需额外噪声的估算.密钥分发系统重复频率为10 MHz,传输距离为25 km,平均安全密钥比特率为24 kbit/s.本文提出的硬件同步方法无需过采样和软件帧同步,减小了系统的复杂度和计算量,在一定程度上降低了系统所需的成本、功耗和体积,有效地增强了连续变量量子密钥分发的实用性.     

Multipartite Entanglement Transfer from Multi-Mode Coherent State to Spin Qubits

The multipartite entanglement transfer from continuous variable system to spin qubits is investigated. We select multi-mode coherent field as continuous variable field. It is found that the qubits can not gain tripartite entanglement for states of close to GHZ state from the multi-mode coherent field. Moreover, the ability of the qubits gain the tripartite entanglement for states close to W state and bipartite entanglement from the continuous variable system is depended on the phase of multi-mode coherent field.
