One-dimensional cluster state generated in one step via one cavity

A scheme to generate multi-atom one-dimensional cluster state via one microwave cavity with an additional driven classical field is proposed. According to the scheme, one-dimensional cluster state with 2k-atom can be prepared in one step via one cavity, one-dimensional cluster state with (2k-1)-atom can be generated by measuring the2kth-atom of an 2k-atom cluster state in a certain basis. This scheme avoids cavity-field induced decay and may achieve one-dimensional cluster states with ideal success probability.     

Preparation of multi-atom cluster state and teleportation of arbitrary two-atom state via thermal cavity

We propose one cavity QED (CQED) scheme for generating an arbitrary 2-level-atom cluster state. Besides, by using a 4-atom cluster state as quantum channel, we propose another CQED scheme for teleporting any unknown two-atom state. In both schemes, the dynamics processes are essentially quite similar. The Rabi frequency of the classical driving field is much bigger than the detuning between the atoms and the cavity. Hence both schemes are insensitive to the cavity decay. The necessary time for implementation is much shorter than the Rydberg-atom lifespan, therefore atom decays do not need to be considered. Moreover, in the teleportation scheme the discrimination of the 16 mutually orthogonal 4-atom cluster states is transformed into the discrimination of single-atom product states, consequently the discrimination difficulty is degraded and the scheme is more easily implemented.     

The quantum vacuum as the origin of the speed of light

We present an economical scheme of five-party quantum state sharing (FQSTS) of an arbitrary m-atom with five-atom cluster state in cavity QED. It is found that the five-partite cluster state can be used for FQSTS of an arbitrary m-atom state. The implementation of this scheme does not involve Bell-basis or GHZ-basis measurements, which makes it more convenient in a practical application than some previous schemes. The scheme is also insensitive to the cavity decay and the thermal field.     

Scheme for cloning an unknown single qutrit state with assistance

We propose a scheme for cloning an unknown single qutrit state with assistance. The scheme includes a qutrit-state teleportation at the cloner's site. During this process different states (i.e., the maximally entangled or non-maximally entangled two-qutrit states) as quantum channel are taken into account. After the teleportation, to help the cloner Alice to reestablish the unknown state, the state preparer Victor should perform a single-qutrit measurement and tell her the outcome. In this scheme, the success probability of cloning the original state is determined by the used quantum channel.     

High efficient scheme for remote state preparation with cavity QED

In this paper, a scheme is proposed for remote state preparation （RSP） with cavity quantum electrodynamics （QED）. In our scheme, two observers share two-atom nonmaximally entangled state as quantum channels and can realize remote preparation of state of an atom. We also propose a generalization for remote preparation of N-atom entangled state by （N＋1）-atom GHZ-like state （N ≥ 2）. By this scheme, one single-atom projective measurement is enough for the RSP of a qubit or N-atom entangled state, and the probability of success for RSP is unity. Furthermore, we have considered the case where observers use W-like state as quantum channels to realize RSP of a qubit. We compare our scheme with existing ones.     

A Cavity-QED-Based Scheme for Generating Multi-photon NOON State

We present a scheme for generating a multi-photon NOON state within the context of cavity QED. In the present scheme, an N-atom entangled state between two separated cavities is established based on atomic Bragg scattering firstly, and then the entanglement is transferred from atoms to the fields of the two cavities via stimulated Raman adiabatic passage. With the photons emitting from the cavities along two different directions, the maximally path-entangled optical NOON state is obtained.

Entangled atomic state generation via adiabatic evolution of dark eigenstates in cavity QED

We propose a scheme for generating a two-atom entangled state and an N-atom W state using adiabatic evolution of dark eigenstates in cavity QED. The time required to complete the process does not need precise control. Since the cavity modes are never excited during the operations by engineering adiabatic evolution and controlling the atom–cavity couplings, the decoherence of the cavity decay can be suppressed.     

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.

Implementing phase-covariant cloning in circuit quantum electrodynamics

An efficient scheme is proposed to implement phase-covariant quantum cloning by using a superconducting transmon qubit coupled to a microwave cavity resonator in the strong dispersive limit of circuit quantum electrodynamics (QED). By solving the master equation numerically, we plot the Wigner function and Poisson distribution of the cavity mode after each operation in the cloning transformation sequence according to two logic circuits proposed. The visualizations of the quasi-probability distribution in phase-space for the cavity mode and the occupation probability distribution in the Fock basis enable us to penetrate the evolution process of cavity mode during the phase-covariant cloning (PCC) transformation. With the help of numerical simulation method, we find out that the present cloning machine is not the isotropic model because its output fidelity depends on the polar angle and the azimuthal angle of the initial input state on the Bloch sphere. The fidelity for the actual output clone of the present scheme is slightly smaller than one in the theoretical case. The simulation results are consistent with the theoretical ones. This further corroborates our scheme based on circuit QED can implement efficiently PCC transformation.

One-step generation of qutrit entanglement via adiabatic passage in cavity quantum electrodynamics

A scheme is proposed for generating a three-dimensional entangled state for two atoms trapped in a cavity by one step via adiabatic passage. In the scheme, the two atoms are always in ground states and the field mode of the cavity excited is negligible under a certain condition. Therefore, the scheme is very robust against decoherence. Furthermore, it needs neither the exact control of all parameters nor the accurate control of the interaction time. It is shown that qutrit entanglement can be generated with a high fidelity.     

Scheme for realizing assisted cloning of an unknown two-atom entangled state via cavity QED

This paper proposes a scheme where one can realize quantum cloning of an unknown two-atom entangled state with assistance of a state preparer in cavity QED. The first stage of the scheme requires usual teleportation. In the second stage of the scheme, with the assistance of the preparer, the perfect copies of an unknown atomic entangled state can be produced.     

Probabilistic Cloning of two Single-Atom States via Thermal Cavity

We propose a cavity QED scheme for implementing the 1 → 2 probabilistic quantum cloning (PQC) of two single-atom states. In our scheme, after the to-be-cloned atom and the assistant atom passing through the first cavity, a measurement is carried out on the assistant atom. Based on the measurement outcome we can judge whether the PQC should be continued. If the cloning fails, the other operations are omitted. This makes our scheme economical. If the PQC is continued (with the optimal probability) according to the measurement outcome, two more cavities and some unitary operations are used for achieving the PQC in a deterministic way. Our scheme is insensitive to the decays of the cavities and the atoms.
