六光子量子纠缠态的制备

我们提出了一个完全基于量子擦除概念上的六光子纠缠态的制备方案。首先，提出了利用一组四纠缠光子来制备六光子纠缠态的方案。接着，运用同样的技术，通过五粒子纠缠和Bell态的相互作用来制备六光子纠缠态。我们的实验方案可以应用于以测量为基础的量子计算和多体量子通信领域的研究。我们发现该方案成功的概率取决于纠缠态的系数。

Proposal for quantum entanglement of six photons

We propose a different scheme to achieve six-photon entangled states based entirely on the concept of quantum erasure. To begin with, a scheme for making use of a group of four entangled photons to generate six-photon entangled states is presented. Then, with the same technique, the preparation of the six-photon entanglement from five-particle entanglement which is then combined with Bell states is considered. Our experimental methods can be used for the investigations of measurement-based quantum computation and multi-party quantum communication. We find that the success probability is determined by the small coefficients of the entangled states.
