Chip-to-chip photonic quantum teleportation over optical fibers of 12.3 km

Quantum teleportation is a crucial function in quantum networks. The implementation of photonic quantum teleportation could be highly simplified by quantum photonic circuits. To extend chip-to-chip teleportation distance, more effort is needed on both chip design and system implementation. In this work, we demonstrate a time-bin-based chip-to-chip photonic quantum teleportation over optical fibers under the scenario of a star-topology quantum network. Three quantum photonic circuits are designed and fabricated on a single chip, each serving specific functions: heralded single-photon generation at the user node, entangled photon pair generation and BSM at the relay node, and projective measurement of the teleported photons at the central node. The unbalanced Mach-Zehnder interferometers (UMZI) for time-bin encoding in these quantum photonic circuits are optimized to reduce insertion losses and suppress noise photons generated on the chip. Besides, an active feedback system is employed to suppress the impact of fiber length fluctuation between the circuits, achieving a stable quantum interference for the BSM in the relay node. As a result, a photonic quantum teleportation over optical fibers of 12.3 km is achieved based on these quantum photonic circuits, showing the potential of chip integration for the development of quantum networks.

Quantum teleportation of a silicon nanophotonic CNOT gate

Large-scale quantum computers possess the capacity to effectively tackle practical problems that can be insurmountable for classical computers. The main challenge in building these quantum computers is to realize scalable modules for remote qubits and entanglement. By assembling small, specialized parts into a larger architecture, the modular approach mitigates complexity and uncertainty. Such a distributed architecture requires non-local quantum gate operations between remote qubits. An essential method for implementing such operations, known as quantum gate teleportation, requires only local operations, classical communication, and shared entanglement. Till today, the quantum gate teleportation using a photonic chip has remained elusive. Here, we experimentally demonstrate the quantum teleportation of an on-chip controlled-NOT (CNOT) gate, implemented via a silicon polarization directional coupler. Assisted with the scalable silicon chip platform, high-fidelity local quantum logic gates, linear optical components, post-selected entanglement, and coincidence measurements from photonic qubits, we first measure and characterize our teleported chip-scale CNOT gate with an average truth table fidelity of 93.1 ± 0.3%. Second, for different input polarization states, we obtain an average quantum state fidelity of 87.0 ± 2.2% with our teleported on-chip CNOT gate. Third, we use our non-local CNOT gate for remote entanglement creation of four Bell states, with an average quantum state fidelity of 86.2 ± 0.8%. Fourth, we fully characterize our teleported on-chip CNOT gate with a quantum process fidelity of 83.1 ± 2.0%, and an average non-local CNOT gate fidelity of 86.5 ± 2.2%. Our teleported photonic on-chip quantum logic gate could be extended both to multiple qubits and chip-scale modules towards fault-tolerant and large-scale distributed quantum computation.
