Gain Measurement and Anomalous Decrease of Peak Gain at Long Wavelength for InAs/GaAs Quantum-Dot Lasers

Mode gain spectrum is measured by the Fourier series expansion method for InAs/GaAs quantum-dot （QD） lasers with seven stacks of QDs at different injection currents. Gain spectra with distinctive peaks are observed at the short and long wavelengths of about 1210nm and 1300nm. For a QD laser with the cavity length of 1060μm, the peak gain of the long wavelength first increases slowly or even decreases with the injection current as the peak gain of the short wavelength increases quickly, and finally increases quickly before approaching the saturated values as the injection current further increases.     

Teleportation of an n-bit one-photon and vacuum entangled GHZ cavity-field state

A scheme for teleporting an arbitrary n-bit one-photon and vacuum entangled Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger （GHZ） state is proposed. In this scheme, the maximum entanglement GHZ state is used as a quantum channel. We find a method of distinguishing four Bell states just by detecting the atomic states three times, which is irrelevant to the qubit number of the state to be teleported.     

Four Electrons in a Coupled Three-Layer Quantum Dot

We investigate four electrons confined in a coupled three-layer quantum dot, by the exact diagonalization method. A vertical magnetic field to the confinement plane is considered. The ground-state electronic structures and angular momentum transitions are investigated. We find that for four-electron Q Ds, the Series of the magic numbers in three-layer QDs are different from those in one-, and two-layer Q Ds. These are connected to the exchange and rotational symmetries of the systems.     

Photon-Assisted Conductance Structure for a Quantum Dot

We investigate theoretically the electron transport of a two-level quantum dot irradiated under a weak laser field at low temperatures in the rotating wave approximation. Using the method of the Keldysh equation of motion for nonequilibrium Green function, we examine the conductance for the system with photon polarization perpendicular to the tunnelling current direction. It is demonstrated that by analytic analysing and numerical examples, a feature of conductance peak splitting appears, and the dependence of conductance on the incident laser frequency and self-energy are discussed.     

Fluctuation of Quantum Information Density in Curved Time-Space

A dynamical equation for quantum information density （QID） in curved spacetime is presented. The related fluctuation of QID with quantum Einstein equation is also discussed, which reveals the measuring of the dynamical mutual information condition using a Gaussian quantum channel.     

Scheme for entanglement concentration of unknown W class states via linear optics

This paper proposes a scheme for entanglement concentration of unknown triparticle W class states with a certain probability. This protocol is mainly based on the coincidences of single-photon detectors and requires single-photon detectors and linear optical elements. The scheme is feasible within current technology.     

Atom-photon entanglement in the system with competing k-photon and l-photon transitions

We have investigated the evolution of the atomic quantum entropy and the entanglement of atom-photon in the system with competing k-photon and l-photon transitions by means of fully quantum theory, and examined the effects of competing photon numbers （k and l）, the relative coupling strength between the atom and the two-mode field （A/g）, and the initial photon number of the field on the atomic quantum entropy and the entanglement of atom-photon. The results show that the multiphoton competing transitions or the large relative coupling strength can lead to the strong entanglement between atoms and photons. The maximal atom-photon entanglement can be prepared via the appropriate selection of system parameters and interaction time.     

A controlled quantum teleportation scheme of an N-particle unknown state via three-particle W1 states

In this paper a controlled quantum teleportation scheme of an N-particle unknown state is proposed when N groups of three-particle W1 states are utilized as quantum channels. The quantum information of N-particle unknown state is transmitted from the sender to the recipient under the control of all supervisors. It can be realized with a certain probability. After the sender makes Bell-state measurements and the supervisors perform the computational basis measurements, the recipient will introduce auxiliary particles and carry out unitary transformations depending on classical information from the sender and the supervisors. Finally, the computational basis measurement will be performed by the recipient to confirm whether the teleportation succeeds or not. The successful completion of the scheme relies on all supervisors＇ cooperation. In addition, the fidelity and security of the scheme are discussed.     

光纤量子密码网络

 数字通信和数字信号处理领域的快速发展直接推动了20世纪后半叶兴起的信息革命。今天的数字信息系统仍然只在经典物理的范畴。每一个比特的信息都能完全的被经典器件描述，比如说一个晶体管或者微处理器的输入电压高低来代表0或者1。然而，信息也能通过量子力学的方式来处理和传输，这就产生了全新的量子信息科学。量子信息科学的一个典型应用就是量子密码术，在过去的十几年中发展十分迅速，美国和欧洲甚至都已经有比较成熟的商业产品。那么，什么是量子密码术，它的基本工作原理是什么，量子密码网络又是解决什么问题的。希望通过本文的叙述，读者能有大致的了解。     

One-step discrimination scheme on N-particle Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger bases

We present an experimentally feasible one-step discrimination scheme on Bell bases with trapped ions, and then generalize it to the case of N-ion Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger （GHZ） bases. In the scheme, all the orthogonal and complete N-ion GHZ internal states can be exactly discriminated only by one step, and thus it takes very short time. Moreover, the scheme is insensitive to thermal motion and dose not require the individual addressing of the ions. The Bell-state and GHZ-state one-step discrimination scheme can be widely used in quantum information processing based on ion-trap set-up.
