Photon Excitations Excitated the Sqeezing Properties of the Excited Entangled Coherent States

In our previous paper, we have introduced a new kind of continuous-variable-type entangled states, called double-mode excited entangled coherent states. In this paper, we study sum squeezing properties of such excited entangled coherent states. We focus on discussing the influence of photon excitations on sum squeezing properties. It is found that the photon excitations seriously affected sqeezing properties of the excited entangled coherent states. With increasing the number of the photon excitations m, the higher-order terms move away from its initial state |ψ ₀〉 and the degrees of sum squeezing are increasing. In this sense, it implies that the photon excitations excitated the sum sqeezing properties of the double-mode excited entangled coherent states.     

Teleportation of a Coherent Superposition State Via a nonmaximally Entangled Coherent Xhannel

We investigate the problemm of teleportation of a superposition coherent state with nonmaximally entangled coherent channel. Two strategies are considered to complete the task. The first one uses entanglement concentration to purify the channel to a maximally entangled one. The second one teleports the state through the nonmaximally entangled coherent channel directly. We find that the probabilities of successful teleportations for the two strategies are depend on the amplitudes of the coherent states and the mean fidelity of teleportation using the first strategy is always less than that of the second strategy.     

A Cavity-QED Scheme for Generating Long-Lived Maximally Entangled States

We propose a potentially practical scheme to generate two-atom maximally entangled states by the large-detuning interaction between two three-level ∧-type atoms and coherent optical fields. Conditioned on the results of detecting cavity field, four pairs of atomic maximally entangled states with unity fidelity and high successful probability can be prepared. We also investigate the influence of the cavity dissipation on the generated entangledstates and discuss the experimental feasibility of our scheme.     

好腔中的Bell态原子与纠缠相干态光场相互作用系统的保真度

考虑原子间偶极相互作用,求出好腔中的Bell态原子与纠缠相干态光场相互作用系统的保真度。结果表明,对于理想腔,若原子初始时刻处于相干保持态,系统保真度始终等于1;若原子初始时刻处于其余Bell态之一,腔场初态的平均光子数很小,系统保真度在0～1之间作周期性振荡,随着腔场初态的平均光子数的增加,系统保真度的振荡频率增大,振幅减小。对于好腔,若原子初始时刻处于相干保持态,系统保真度呈指数单调衰减;若原子初始时刻处于其余Bell态之一,系统保真度呈指数振荡衰减,且随着腔场初态的平均光子数的增加,系统保真度的振荡频率增大,振幅减小。

Decoherence and Fidelity in Teleportation of Coherent Photon-Added Two-Mode Squeezed Thermal States

We theoretically introduce a kind of non-Gaussian entangled resources, i.e., coherent photon-added two-mode squeezed thermal states (CPA-TMSTS), by successively performing coherent photon addition operation to the two-mode squeezed thermal states. The normalization factor related to bivariate Hermite polynomials is obtained. Based upon it, the nonclassicality and decoherence process are analyzed by virtue of the Wigner function. It is shown that the coherent photon addition operation is an effective way in generating partial negative values of Wigner function, which clearly manifests the nonclassicality and non-Gaussianity of the target states. Additionally, the fidelity in teleporting coherent states using CPA-TMSTS as entangled resource is quantified both analytically and numerically. It is found that the CPA-TMSTS is an entangled resource of high-efficiency and high-fidelity in quantum teleportation.     

Generation of a displaced qubit and entangled displaced photon state via conditional measurement and their properties

We study optical schemes for generating both a displaced photon and a displaced qubit via conditional measurement. Combining one mode prepared in different microscopic states (one-mode qubit, single photon, vacuum state) and another mode in macroscopic states (coherent state, single photon added coherent state), a conditional state in the other output mode exhibits properties of a superposition of the displaced vacuum and a single photon. We propose to use the displaced qubit and entangled states composed of the displaced photon as components for quantum information processing. Basic states of such a qubit are distinguishable from each other with high fidelity. We show that the qubit reveals both microscopic and macroscopic properties. Entangled displaced states with a coherent phase as an additional degree of freedom are introduced. We show that additional degree of freedom enables to implement complete Bell state measurement of the entangled displaced photon states.     

Teleportation of tripartite entangled coherent states

This paper proposes a feasible scheme for the quantum teleportation of tripartite entangled coherent states by using linear optical devices such as beam splitters, phase shifters and photo detectors. The scheme is based on the bipartite maximally entangled coherent state and the tripartite entangled coherent state with bipartite maximal entanglement as quantum channels. It shows that when the mean number of photons is equal to 2, the total minimum of the average fidelity for an arbitrary tripartite entangled state is 1-0.67×10 ^-3.     

The effect of channel decoherence on entangled coherent states: A theoretical analysis

We analyze decoherence properties of entangled coherent states due to channel losses. Employing the concept of “entanglement of formation”, degradation of fidelity and degree of entanglement are calculated. We have obtained an explicit expression of concurrence concerning the symmetric noise channel and found our result is just incompatible with that of [K. Park, H. Jeong, Phys. Rev. A 82 (2010) 062325] measured by negativity in the limit of α→0. We demonstrate that entangled coherent states with sufficient small amplitudes are more robust against channel decoherence than Bell states.     

Statistical properties of coherent photon-subtracted two-mode squeezed vacuum and its application in quantum teleportation

We introduce a kind of non-Gaussian entangled state, which can be obtained by operating a non-local coherent photon-subtraction operation on a two-mode squeezed vacuum. It is found that its normalization factor is only related to the Legendre polynomials, which is a compact expression. Its statistical properties are discussed by the negative region Wigner function with the analytical expression. As an application, the quantum teleportation for coherent states is considered by using the non-Gaussian state as an entangled channel. It is found that the teleportation fidelity can be enhanced by this non-Gaussian operation.     

Teleportation of a Bipartite Entangled Coherent State via a Four-Partite Cluster-Type Entangled State

We present an optical scheme to almost completely teleport a bipartite entangled coherent state using a four-partite cluster-type entangled coherent state as quantum channel. The scheme is based on optical elements such as beam splitters, phase shifters, and photon detectors. We also obtain the average fidelity of the teleportation process. It is shown that the average fidelity is quite close to unity if the mean photon number of the coherent stateis not too small.     

Even and Odd Charge Coherent States: Higher-Order Nonclassical Properties and Generation Scheme

We examine the higher-order nonclassical properties of the even and odd charge coherent states as well as proposing a scheme to generate these states whose modes can freely travel in open space. We show that the even and odd charge coherent states exhibit both higher-order antibunching and higher-order squeezing. While the two-mode higher-order antibunching occurs in any order and essentially depends on the charge number, the two-mode higher-order squeezing appears only in the even orders. We also prove that these states are genuinely entangled, and they can be generated by means of cross-Kerr media, beam splitters, phase shifts and threshold detectors. We find that the fidelity and the corresponding success probability to generate these states are dependent on the correlative parameters.     

Non-Gaussian cloning of quantum coherent states is optimal

We consider the optimal cloning of quantum coherent states with single-clone and joint fidelity as figures of merit. While the latter is maximized by a Gaussian cloner, the former is not: the optimal single-clone fidelity for a symmetric 1-to-2 cloner is 0.6826, compared to 2/3 in a Gaussian setting. This cloner can be realized with an optical parametric amplifier and certain non-Gaussian bimodal states. Finally, we show that the single-clone fidelity of the optimal 1-to-infinity cloner is 1/2. It is achieved by a Gaussian scheme and cannot be surpassed even with supplemental bound entangled states.     

Teleportation fidelity as a probe of sub-Planck phase-space structure

We investigate the connection between sub-Planck structure in the Wigner function and the output fidelity of continuous-variable teleportation protocols. When the teleporting parties share a two-mode squeezed state as an entangled resource, high fidelity in the output state requires a squeezing large enough that the smallest sub-Planck structures in an input pure state are teleported faithfully. We formulate this relationship, which leads to an explicit relation between the fine-scale structure in the Wigner function and large-scale extent of the Wigner function, and we treat specific examples, including coherent, number, and random states and states produced by chaotic dynamics. We generalize the pure-state results to teleportation of mixed states.     

Transfer information remotely via noise entangled coherent channels

A simple scheme of quantum teleportation is introduced to investigate the possibility of remotely transfer unknown tripartite state by using a multipartite entangled coherent state. A theoretical technique is introduced to generate maximum entangled coherent states and a generalized teleportation protocol is introduced. The fidelity of the teleported state increases significantly when increasing the number of modes in the case of large noise, whereas it shows the opposite behavior in the case of small noise.
