Implementation of nonlocal quantum swap operation on two entangled pairs

We propose a scheme for the implementation of nonlocal quantum swap operation on two spatially separated entangled pairs and we show that the operation can swap two qubits of these entangled pairs.We discuss the resources of the entangled qubits and classical communication bits required for the optimal implementation of the nonlocal quantum swap operation.We also put forward a scheme for probabilistic implementation of nonlocal swap operation via a nonmaximally entangled quantum channel.The probability of a successful nonlocal swap operation is obtained by introducing a collective unitary transformation.     

通过相位偏移来测量弱值

几年前,由Aharonov, Albert和Vaidman等提出了量子力学中对于可观测量的弱测量理论(weak measurement). 弱测量过程中测量系统与态之间的相互作用相当弱,从而不会导致态的塌缩.     

Quantum metrology

The statistical error is ineluctable in any measurement. Quantum techniques, especially with the development of quantum information, can help us squeeze the statistical error and enhance the precision of measurement. In a quantum system, there are some quantum parameters, such as the quantum state, quantum operator, and quantum dimension, which have no classical counterparts. So quantum metrology deals with not only the traditional parameters, but also the quantum parameters. Quantum metrology includes two important parts： measuring the physical parameters with a precision beating the classical physics limit and measuring the quantum parameters precisely. In this review, we will introduce how quantum characters （e.g., squeezed state and quantum entanglement） yield a higher precision, what the research areas are scientists most interesting in, and what the development status of quantum metrology and its perspectives are.

A Wavelength-Tunable Fiber-Coupled Narrow-Band Twin-Photon Source

We present a wavelength-tunable narrow-band fiber-coupled source to generate correlated photon pairs at 539 nm and 1550nm. Using a lO-mm PPLN crystal, we obtain more than 50ram tunable range near 1550nm. This source, given its spectral property and tunable property, is well suited for tasks in fiber-optic quantum communication and cryptography networks.     

基于光子晶体光纤交叉敏感分离的磁场温度传感研究

提出了一种基于定向耦合效应和表面等离子共振效应的交叉敏感分离的磁场温度传感结构.在光子晶体光纤的一个特定空气孔中填充磁流体,利用磁流体的磁光效应和定向耦合效应形成磁场传感通道;在垂直方向的另一空气孔的内壁镀金纳米薄膜并填充甲苯液体,利用甲苯的温敏效应和表面等离子共振效应形成温度传感通道.对应输出谱出现两个损耗峰,测量损耗峰位置可以间接测出磁场强度和温度变化.通过理论计算()和结构优化,在90—270 Oe1 Oe=10~3/(4π) A/m范围内,磁场强度的灵敏度最高可达1.16 nm/Oe;在25—60?C范围内,温度的灵敏度可达-9.07 nm/?C.虽然填充的两种液体的折射率都受环境温度的影响,但通过建立灵敏度系数矩阵,可以消除磁场强度与温度的交叉敏感,实现磁场温度双参量的高灵敏度检测.

Improved performance of Au nanocrystal nonvolatile memory by N_2-plasma treatment on HfO_2 blocking layer

The N_2-plasma treatment on a HfO_2 blocking layer of Au nanocrystal nonvolatile memory without any post annealing is investigated. The electrical characteristics of the MOS capacitor with structure of Al–Ta N/HfO_2/Si O2/p-Si are also characterized. After N_2-plasma treatment, the nitrogen atoms are incorporated into HfO_2 film and may passivate the oxygen vacancy states. The surface roughness of HfO_2 film can also be reduced. Those improvements of HfO_2 film lead to a smaller hysteresis and lower leakage current density of the MOS capacitor. The N_2-plasma is introduced into Au nanocrystal(NC) nonvolatile memory to treat the HfO_2 blocking layer. For the N_2-plasma treated device, it shows a better retention characteristic and is twice as large in the memory window than that for the no N_2-plasma treated device. It can be concluded that the N_2-plasma treatment method can be applied to future nonvolatile memory applications.     

GENERATION OF ENTANGLED FOCK STATES OF TWO NONLOCAL CAVITY MODES WITH DIFFERENT FREQUENCIES

We present a method to generate entangled Fock states of two nonlocal cavity modes with different frequencies. We send an atom with three levels g,e, and f across two cavities. The atomic transition frequency between level g and e is resonant with the first cavity frequency, while the atomic transition frequency between level g and f is resonant with the second cavity frequency. The detection of the atomic state leaves the pure field in an entangled Fock state.
