Abstract

We propose a feasible scheme to realize a spin network via a coupled cavity array with the appropriate arrangement of external multi-driving lasers. It is demonstrated that the linear photon-like dispersion is achievable and this property opens up the possibility of realizing the pre-engineered spin network which is beneficial to quantum information processing.

THE PHOTON-LIKE FLYING QUBIT IN THE COUPLED CAVITY ARRAY

MING-XIA HUO, Ying Li, Z. Song +1 more

We propose the simulation for an effective scheme to realize a spin network with tunable long-range couplings in the coupled cavity array with external multi-driving lasers. Via this scheme, the linear photon-like dispersion relation is achievable, which could be employed to perform a perfect quantum state transfer. Numerical results show that when applying two lasers in each cavity, the fidelity is higher than the highest fidelity of a classical transfer even for the transfer distance l increases up to 100 sites. In the simulation, as the number of lasers increases, the fidelity will be evidently enhanced for a wide range of l.

Realization of a cavity-coupled Rydberg array

Jacopo De Santis, Balázs Dura-Kovács, Mehmet Öncü +3 more

Scalable quantum computers and quantum networks require the combination of quantum processing nodes with efficient light-matter interfaces to distribute quantum information in local or long-distance quantum networks. Neutral-atom arrays have both been coupled to Rydberg states to enable high-fidelity quantum gates in universal processing architectures, and to optical cavities to realize interfaces to photons. However, combining these two capabilities and coupling atom arrays to highly excited Rydberg states in the mode of an optical cavity has been an outstanding challenge. Here we present a novel cavity-coupled Rydberg array that achieves this long-standing goal. We prepare, detect, and control individual atoms in a scalable optical tweezer array, couple them strongly to the optical mode of a high-finesse optical cavity and excite them in a controlled way to Rydberg states. We show that high-cooperativity coupling to an optical cavity -- demonstrated via the dispersive shift of the resonance of the cavity in presence of the atoms -- and strong Rydberg interactions -- demonstrated via the collective enhancement of Rydberg coupling in the atomic array -- can be achieved in our setup at the same spatial location. Our presented experimental platform opens the path to several new directions, including the realization of quantum network nodes, quantum simulation of long-range interacting, open quantum systems and photonic-state engineering leveraging high-fidelity Rydberg control.

Simulation of high-spin Heisenberg models in coupled cavities

Jaeyoon Cho, Dimitris G. Angelakis, Sougato Bose

We propose a scheme to realize the Heisenberg model of any spin in an arbitrary array of coupled cavities. Our scheme is based on a fixed number of atoms confined in each cavity and collectively applied constant laser fields, and is in a regime where both atomic and cavity excitations are suppressed. It is shown that as well as optically controlling the effective spin Hamiltonian, it is also possible to engineer the magnitude of the spin. Our scheme would open up a way to simulate otherwise intractable high-spin problems in many-body physics.

Theory of Control of the Spin-Photon Interface for Quantum Networks

Wang Yao, Ren‐Bao Liu, Lu Jeu Sham

A cavity coupling, a charged nanodot, and a fiber can act as a quantum interface, through which a stationary spin qubit and a flying photon qubit can be interconverted via a cavity-assisted Raman process. This Raman process can be made to generate or annihilate an arbitrarily shaped single-photon wave packet by pulse shaping the controlling laser field. This quantum interface forms the basis for many essential functions of a quantum network, including sending, receiving, transferring, swapping, and entangling qubits at distributed quantum nodes as well as a deterministic source and an efficient detector of a single-photon wave packet with arbitrarily specified shape and average photon number. Numerical study of errors from noise and system parameters on the operations shows high fidelity and robust tolerance.

Quantum Information Processing in a Coupled Cavity Array

Jian Li, Zou Jian, Shao Bin

We consider a one-dimensional array of L identical coupled cavities, and each cavity is doped with a two-level qubit. Experimentally, it has been developed in several varieties by the newest technology. We find that the one-qubit quantum state can be perfectly transferred through the cavity array, and the entanglement between the first two qubits can also be transferred to the last two qubits. In addition, we successfully realized the entangling gate and swap gate in the coupled cavity array.
