Long-distance entanglement and quantum teleportation in coupled-cavity arrays

Abstract

We introduce quantum spin models whose ground states allow for sizable entanglement between distant spins. We discuss how spin models with global end-to-end entanglement realize quantum teleportation channels with optimal compromise between scalability and resilience to thermal decoherence and can be implemented straightforwardly in suitably engineered arrays of coupled optical cavities.

Long-distance entanglement and quantum communication in coupled cavity arrays

S. M. Giampaolo, Fabrizio Illuminati

We introduce quantum spin models that allow for long-distance end-to-end entanglement and long-distance, high-fidelity teleportation, even at moderately high temperatures. We show how these models, that realize an optimal compromise between scalability and resilience to decoherence, can be implemented in simply engineered arrays of coupled optical cavities. We demonstrate how the latter can be used to realize a quasi-deterministic scheme of long-distance quantum communication with high success rate, without direct projection on Bell states and Bell measurements.

Long-distance entanglement in many-body atomic and optical systems

S. M. Giampaolo, Fabrizio Illuminati

We discuss the phenomenon of long-distance entanglement (LDE) in the ground state of quantum spin models, its use in high-fidelity and robust quantum communication, and its realization in many-body systems of ultracold atoms in optical lattices and in arrays of coupled optical cavities. We investigate XX quantum spin models on one-dimensional lattices with open ends and different patterns of site-dependent interaction couplings, singling out two general settings: patterns that allow for perfect LDE in the ground state of the system, namely such that the end-to-end entanglement remains finite in the thermodynamic limit, and patterns of quasi-long-distance entanglement (QLDE) in the ground state of the system, namely such that the end-to-end entanglement vanishes with a very slow power-law decay as the length of the spin chain is increased. We discuss physical realizations of these models in ensembles of ultracold bosonic atoms loaded in optical lattices. We show how, using either suitably engineered super-lattice structures or exploiting the presence of edge impurities in lattices with single periodicity, it is possible to realize models endowed with nonvanishing LDE or QLDE. We then study how to realize models that optimize the robustness of QLDE at finite temperature and in the presence of imperfections using suitably engineered arrays of coupled optical cavities. For both cases the numerical estimates of the end-to-end entanglement in the actual physical systems are thoroughly compared with the analytical results obtained for the spin model systems. We finally introduce LDE-based schemes of long-distance quantum teleportation in linear arrays of coupled cavities, and show that they allow for high-fidelity and high success rates even at moderately high temperatures.

Long-distance entanglement and quantum teleportation in XX spin chains

Lorenzo Campos Venuti, S. M. Giampaolo, Fabrizio Illuminati +1 more

Isotropic $XX$ models of one-dimensional spin-1/2 chains are investigated with the aim to elucidate the formal structure and the physical properties that allow these systems to act as channels for long-distance, high-fidelity quantum teleportation. We introduce two types of models: (i) open, dimerized $XX$ chains, and (ii) open $XX$ chains with small end bonds. For both models we obtain the exact expressions for the end-to-end correlations and the scaling of the energy gap with the length of the chain. We determine the end-to-end concurrence and show that model (i) supports true long-distance entanglement at zero temperature, while model (ii) supports ``quasi-long-distance'' entanglement that slowly falls off with the size of the chain. Due to the different scalings of the gaps, respectively exponential for model (i) and algebraic in model (ii), we demonstrate that the latter allows for efficient qubit teleportation with high fidelity in sufficiently long chains even at moderately low temperatures.

Long Distance, Unconditional Teleportation of Atomic States via Complete Bell State Measurements

Seth Lloyd, M. S. Shahriar, Jeffrey H. Shapiro +1 more

We propose a scheme for creating and storing quantum entanglement over long distances. Optical cavities that store this long-distance entanglement in atoms could then function as nodes of a quantum network, in which quantum information is teleported from cavity to cavity. The teleportation is conducted unconditionally via measurements of all four Bell states, using a novel method of sequential elimination.

Qubit Teleportation and Transfer across Antiferromagnetic Spin Chains

Lorenzo Campos Venuti, C. Degli Esposti Boschi, M. Roncaglia

We explore the capability of spin-1/2 chains to act as quantum channels for both teleportation and transfer of qubits. Exploiting the emergence of long-distance entanglement in low-dimensional systems [Phys. Rev. Lett. 96, 247206 (2006)10.1103/Phys.Rev.Lett.96, 247206(2006)], here we show how to obtain high communication fidelities between distant parties. An investigation of protocols of teleportation and state transfer is presented, in the realistic situation where temperature is included. Basing our setup on antiferromagnetic rotationally invariant systems, both protocols are represented by pure depolarizing channels. We propose a scheme where channel fidelity close to 1 can be achieved on very long chains at moderately small temperature.

Long-Distance Entanglement in Spin Systems

Lorenzo Campos Venuti, C. Degli Esposti Boschi, M. Roncaglia

Most quantum system with short-ranged interactions show a fast decay of entanglement with the distance. In this Letter, we focus on the peculiarity of some systems to distribute entanglement between distant parties. Even in realistic models, like the spin-1 Heisenberg chain, sizable entanglement is present between arbitrarily distant particles. We show that long-distance entanglement appears for values of the microscopic parameters which do not coincide with known quantum critical points, hence signaling a transition detected only by genuine quantum correlations.
