Generation of multiple-particle cluster state via cavity QED

This paper proposes schemes for generating multiple-photon and multiple-atom cluster states, respectively. The schemes are based on the cavity input--output process and atomic or photonic states measurement, and the successful probabilities approach unity in the ideal case. The numerical simulations show that the produced multiple-particle cluster states have high fidelity even if the Lamb--Dicke condition is not satisfied. Some practical imperfections, such as atomic spontaneous emission and output coupling inefficiency, only decrease the success probability but exert no influence on the fidelity of generated multiple-particle cluster states. From the experimental point of view, smaller operation number and lack of need for individual addressing keeps the schemes easy to implement. These schemes may offer a promising approach to the generation of a large-scale cluster state.     

Cavity QED based tuneable,delayed-choice quantum eraser

We propose an experimentally feasible idea for the delayed-choice quantum eraser, having adjustable path distinguishability/fringe visibility. The schematics are based on resonant, dispersive and Ramsey interactions of atoms under cavity QED scenario. The option for tuneability of the fringes in a delayed-choice setup stringently marks the conception of the time in the quantum theory, operational meanings of the state vector reduction and raises questions about Ψ$\Psi$-ontic models while helping to shed out the controversies surrounding the quantum eraser theme. The proposal can be efficiently executed experimentally within the prevailing cavity QED experimental research scenario with good overall success probability and fidelity.     

Efficient scheme of quantum SWAP gate and multi-atom cluster state via cavity QED

In this paper, we propose a physical scheme to realize quantum SWAP gate by using a large-detuned single-mode cavity field and two identical Rydberg atoms. It is shown that the scheme can also be used to create multi-atom cluster state. During the interaction between atom and cavity, the cavity is only virtually excited and thus the scheme is insensitive to the cavity field states and cavity decay. With the help of our scheme it is very simple to prepare the N-atom cluster state with perfect fidelity and probability. The practical feasibility of this method is also discussed.     

Scheme for implementing quantum dense coding with W-class state in cavity QED

An experimentally feasible protocol for realizing dense coding by using a class of W-state in cavity quantum electrodynamics （QED） is proposed in this paper. The prominent advantage of our scheme is that the successful probability of the dense coding with a W-class state can reach 1. In addition, the scheme can be implemented by the present cavity QED techniques.     

Scheme for implementing quantum secret sharing via cavity QED

An experimentally feasible scheme for implementing quantum secret sharing via cavity quantum electrodynamics （QED） is proposed. The scheme requires the large detuning of the cavity field from the atomic transition, the cavity is only virtually excited, thus the requirement on the quality factor of the cavity is greatly loosened.

Implementation of Controlled‐NOT Gate by Lyapunov Control

A scheme to implement the controlled‐NOT (CNOT) gate for quantum systems is proposed, which is based on Lyapunov control. The scheme does not require precise control of the interaction time since the system is stable when the control fields vanish. In particular, the control fields can be easily obtained by most initial states. As an example, the CNOT gate is realized for two atoms trapped in an optical cavity by exploiting two disturbance cases. Compared to continuous disturbance, the fidelity of the CNOT gate is higher under impulsive disturbance, however, interaction times are much longer. Numerical simulations indicate that the scheme is robust against variations of control parameters and decoherence caused by atomic spontaneous emission and cavity decay. Therefore, the scheme may provide useful applications in quantum computation.     

One-step implementation of a multi-target-qubit controlled phase gate with cat-state qubits in circuit QED

We propose a single-step implementation of a muti-target-qubit controlled phase gate with one catstate qubit (cqubit) simultaneously controlling n–1 target cqubits. The two logic states of a cqubit are represented by two orthogonal cat states of a single cavity mode. In this proposal, the gate is implemented with n microwave cavities coupled to a superconducting transmon qutrit. Because the qutrit remains in the ground state during the gate operation, decoherence caused due to the qutrit’s energy relaxation and dephasing is greatly suppressed. The gate implementation is quite simple because only a single-step operation is needed and neither classical pulse nor measurement is required. Numerical simulations demonstrate that high-fidelity realization of a controlled phase gate with one cqubit simultaneously controlling two target cqubits is feasible with present circuit QED technology. This proposal can be extended to a wide range of physical systems to realize the proposed gate, such as multiple microwave or optical cavities coupled to a natural or artificial three-level atom.     

Fast Generation of GHZ States with Bose–Einstein Condensate in a Cavity

It is shown that strong coupling of Bose–Einstein condensates to an optical cavity can be realized experimentally. With an additional driven microwave field, we show that a highly nonlinear coupling among atoms in a Bose–Einstein condensate can be induced with the assistance of the cavity mode. With such interaction, we can investigate the generation of many body entangled states. In particularly, we show that multipartite entangled GHZ states can be obtained in such architecture with current available techniques.
