Approximate Toffoli Gate Originated from a Single Resonant Interaction of Cavity Dissipation and Atomic Spontaneous Emission

We propose a potentially practical scheme to implement an approximate three-qubit Toffoli gate by a single resonant interaction in dissipative cavity QED in which the cavity mode decay and atomic spontaneous emission are considered. The scheme does not require two-qubit controlled-NOT gates but uses a three-qubit phase gate and two Hadamard gates, where the approximate phase gate can be implemented by only a single dissipative resonant interaction of atoms with the cavity mode. Discussions are made for the advantages and the experimental feasibility of our scheme.     

用腔场中的二能级势阱离子实现量子逻辑门

利用光腔中的势阱粒子同时与外激光场和腔场发生相互作用的特性，我们提出了一种量子逻辑门的实现方案。在该方案中，我们采用文献[10-12]中的模型。文献[11-12]中实现的逻辑门是以离子内态和运动态作为量子比特，腔态充当辅助比特在计算过程中保持在基态。而[10]要求离子内态保持为基态，利用离子运动态和腔态构成量子比特。与文献[10-12]不同的是，我们实现的量子逻辑门是以粒子内态和腔态作为比特，而势阱离子的运动态作为辅助比特始终保持在基态。而且，我们对该方案的实验要求进行了讨论。     

Quantum logic gates with two-level trapped ions beyond Lamb--Dicke limit

In the system with two two-level ions confined in a linear trap, this paper presents a simple scheme to realize the quantum phase gate (QPG) and the swap gate beyond the Lamb--Dicke (LD) limit. These two-qubit quantum logic gates only involve the internal states of two trapped ions. The scheme does not use the vibrational mode as the data bus and only requires a single resonant interaction of the ions with the lasers. Neither the LD approximation nor the auxiliary atomic level is needed in the proposed scheme. Thus the scheme is simple and the interaction time is very short, which is important in view of decoherence. The experimental feasibility for achieving this scheme is also discussed.     

Quantum controlled phase gate and cluster states generation via two superconducting quantum interference devices in a cavity

A scheme for implementing 2-qubit quantum controlled phase gate (QCPG) is proposed with two superconducting quantum interference devices (SQUIDs) in a cavity. The gate operations are realized within the two lower flux states of the SQUIDs by using a quantized cavity field and classical microwave pulses. Our scheme is achieved without any type of measurement, does not use the cavity mode as the data bus and only requires a very short resonant interaction of the SQUID-cavity system. As an application of the QCPG operation, we also propose a scheme for generating the cluster states of many SQUIDs.     

Resonant scheme for realizing quantum phase gates for two separate atoms via coupled cavities

We propose a scheme for realizing conditional quantum phase gates for two atoms that are distributed in two coupled cavities. Due to the resonant interaction in temporal evolution of the entire system, the gate operation time is greatly reduced as compared with that of the nonresonant schemes. We study the influence of imperfections in the interaction and the effect of decoherence and find the gate to be robust. We discuss the issue related to the practical implementation and show that the gate is accessible within the current cavity QED technology.     

Quantum Logic Gates and Cluster States with Four-level Atoms in Cavity QED

We propose a model to implement the two-qubit quantum logic gates, i.e., the quantum phase gate and the Controlled-NOT gate, and generate the atomic qubits cluster states with a large detuned interaction between four-level atoms and a single-mode cavity field. In the presented protocol, the quantum information is encoded on the stable ground states of the atoms, and the effect of decoherence from atomic spontaneous emission is negligible. In addition, the interaction between atoms and the cavity is large detuned, and the cavity is only virtually excited. Therefore, the scheme is insensitive to the cavity decay. The experimental feasibility of our proposal is also discussed.     

Three-qubit phase gate on three modes of a cavity

We show that a three-qubit phase gate on three modes of a cavity can be realized via resonant atom–cavity interaction. By introducing two strong classical fields and modulating the amplitudes, we obtain the effective form of nonlinear interaction between photons in the three-mode cavity. The availability is testified via numerical analysis. We also consider both the situations with and without effect of decoherence.     

Note on Implementation of Three-Qubit SWAP Gate

In this paper, the synthesis and implementation of three-qubit SWAP gate is discussed. The three-qubit SWAP gate can be decomposed into product of 2 two-qubit SWAP gates, and it can be realized by 6 CNOT gates. Research illustrated that although the result is very simple, the current methods of matrix decomposition for multi-qubit gate can not get that. Then the implementation of three-qubit SWAP gate in the three spin system with Ising interaction is investigated and the sequence of control pulse and drift process to implement the gate is given. It needs 23 control pulses and 12 drift processes. Since the interaction can not be switched on and off at will, the realization of three-qubit SWAP gate in specific quantum system also can not simply come down to 2 two-qubit SWAP gates.     

Preparation of Entanglement of Atoms and of Photons via Cavity Input-Output Process

We propose a method to prepare multipartite entangled states such as cluster states and graph states based on the cavity input-output process and single photon measurement. Two quantum gates, a controlled phase gate and a fusion gate between two atoms trapped in respective cavities, are proposed to prepare atomic cluster states and graph states with one and two dimensions. We also introduce a scheme that can generate an arbitrary multipartite photon duster state which uses two coherent states as a qubit basis.     

Implementation of Quantum Algorithms via Fast Three-Rydberg-Atom CCZ Gates

Multiqubit CCZ gates form one of the building blocks of quantum algorithms and have been involved in achieving many theoretical and experimental triumphs. Designing a simple and efficient multiqubit gate for quantum algorithms is still by no means trivial as the number of qubits increases. Here, by virtue of the Rydberg blockade effect, we propose a scheme to rapidly implement a three-Rydberg-atom CCZ gate via a single Rydberg pulse, and successfully apply the gate to realize the three-qubit refined Deutsch–Jozsa algorithm and three-qubit Grover search. The logical states of the three-qubit gate are encoded to the same ground states to avoid an adverse effect of the atomic spontaneous emission. Furthermore, there is no requirement for individual addressing of atoms in our protocol.     

三量子比特纠缠Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger态和W态的量子线路实现

两个简单的量子线路被提出分别用来制备三量子比特Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger(GHZ)态和W态。众所周知,任意的多量子比特门都可以由受控非门和单量子比特门复合而成。同样,我们发现三量子比特GHZ态和W态也可以由受控非门和单量子比特门来制备。因此,从量子计算的角度来看我们的方案十分重要。由于在整个过程只用到了单量子比特操作和双量子比特操作,所以我们的方案在实验中很容易实现。     

Modified Khaneja--Glaser Decomposition and Realization of Three-Qubit Quantum Gate

Optimal implementation of quantum gates is crucial for realization of quantum computation. We slightly modify the Khaneja-Glaser decomposition （KGD） for n-qubits and give a new Cartan subalgbra in the second step of the decomposition. Based on this modified KGD, we investigate the realization of three-qubit logic gate and obtain the result that a general three-qubit quantum logic gate can be implemented using at most 73 one-qubit gates rotations with respect to the y and z axes and 26 CNOT gates.     

Implementing a Multi-Qubit Quantum Phase Gate Encoded by Photonic Qubit

A protocol is proposed to implement a three-qubit phase gate for photonic qubits in a three-mode cavity. The idea can be extended to directly implement a N-qubit phase gate. We also show that the interaction time remains unchanged with the increasing number of qubits. In addition, the influence of cavity decay and atomic spontaneous emission on the gate fidelity and photon loss probability is also discussed by numerical calculation.

Two simple schemes for implementing Toffoli gate via atom--cavity field interaction in cavity quantum electrodynamics

This paper proposes two schemes for implementing three-qubit Toffoli gate with an atom (as target qubit) sent through a two-mode cavity (as control qubits). The first scheme is based on the large-detuning atom--cavity field interaction and the second scheme is based on the resonant atom-field interaction. Both the situations with and without cavity decay and atomic spontaneous emission are considered. The advantages and the experimental feasibility of these two schemes are discussed.     

A scheme for realizing n-qubit controlled-phase gates with atoms in cavity QED

We present a new scheme for realizing a n-qubit controlled-phase gate with atoms in cavity QED. The present scheme operates essentially by exchanging a single photon between the control atoms and the cavity mode before and after a phase shift performed on the target atom. It is interesting to note that the gate can be implemented in a very simple way and by employing resonant interaction with one cavity only.     

Production of three-dimensional entanglement for two atoms with a single resonant interaction

A scheme is proposed for generating three-dimensional maximally entangled states for two atoms. In the scheme the atoms are trapped in a two-mode cavity. The scheme only requires a single resonant interaction of the atoms with the cavity modes. Therefore, the scheme is very simple and required interaction time is very short, which is important in view of decoherence.     

Resonant interaction scheme for GHZ state preparation and quantum phase gate with superconducting qubits in a cavity

A scheme is proposed to generate GHZ state and realize quantum phase gate for superconducting qubits placed in a microwave cavity. This scheme uses resonant interaction between the qubits and the cavity mode, so that the interaction time is short, which is important in view of decoherence. In particular, the phase gate can be realized simply with a single interaction between the qubits and the cavity mode. With cavity decay being considered, the fidelity and success probability are both very close to unity.     

Realization of quantum controlled-NOT gate with resonant interaction

We propose a method for realizing the quantum controlled-NOT gate with a single resonant interaction in cavity QED. Our scheme only requires a single resonant interaction between two atoms and a cavity mode. Thus the scheme is very simple and the quantum dynamics operation can be realized at a high speed, which is important in view of decoherence. In addition, we also show that the gate can be realized in the ion trap system.     

Quantum logic gates for hot ions without a speed limitation

We propose a scheme for realizing two-qubit quantum phase gates with trapped ions in thermal motion. In the scheme, the ions are simultaneously illuminated by a standing-wave laser tuned to the carrier, which virtually excites several vibrational modes. The scheme puts no limitations on the intensity of the laser field, allowing the production of a quantum logic gate for hot ions with an arbitrarily high speed as long as a laser field of sufficiently high intensity is available.
