Abstract

Logic-qubit entanglement is a promising resource in quantum information processing, especially in future large-scale quantum networks. In the paper, we put forward an efficient entanglement purification protocol (EPP) for nonlocal mixed logic entangled states with the bit-flip error in the logic qubits of the logic Bell state, resorting to the photon-atom interaction in low-quality (Q) cavity and atomic state measurement. Different from existing EPPs, this protocol can also purify the logic phase-flip error, and the bit-flip error and the phase-flip error in physic qubit. During the protocol, we only require to measure the atom states, and it is useful for improving the entanglement of photon systems in future large-scale quantum networks.

Entanglement Purification for Logic-Qubit of Photon System Based on Parity Check Measurement Gate

Chunyan Li, Rong Kong, Bao‐Cang Ren +2 more

It has been found that logic-qubit entanglement has great potential for applications in quantum communication and quantum networks in recent years. However, along with the effects of noise and decoherence, the fidelity of the communication transmission can be greatly reduced. In this paper, we investigate the entanglement purification of logic bit-flip error and phase-flip error in polarization logic-qubit entanglement based on the parity-check measurement (PCM) gate, which is constructed by the cross-Kerr nonlinearity and used to distinguish the parity information of two-photon polarization states. The probability of entanglement purification is higher than the scheme using the linear optical method. Moreover, the quality of logic-qubit entangled states can be improved by a cyclic purification process. This entanglement purification protocol will be useful in the future when faced with long-distance communication with logic-qubit entanglement states.

Purification of Logic-Qubit Entanglement

Lan Zhou, Yu‐Bo Sheng

Recently, the logic-qubit entanglement shows its potential application in future quantum communication and quantum network. However, the entanglement will suffer from the noise and decoherence. In this paper, we will investigate the first entanglement purification protocol for logic-qubit entanglement. We show that both the bit-flip error and phase-flip error in logic-qubit entanglement can be well purified. Moreover, the bit-flip error in physical-qubit entanglement can be completely corrected. The phase-flip in physical-qubit entanglement error equals to the bit-flip error in logic-qubit entanglement, which can also be purified. This entanglement purification protocol may provide some potential applications in future quantum communication and quantum network.

Measurement-based entanglement purification for logical hybrid entanglement

Pei-Shun Yan, Xiao-Wei Mu, Zhang-Hua Cao

Measurement-based entanglement purification protocol (MBEPP) depending on the Bell state measurement (BSM) is first proposed in [Phys. Rev. Lett.110260503 (2013)10.1103/PhysRevLett.110.260503], which is shown to tolerate much more local noise than the conventional gate-based EPPs. However, the existing MBEPPs for discrete variable (MBEPP-DV) and MBEPP for continuous variable (MBEPP-CV) fail to take full advantage of their strengths. In this paper, we study the MBEPP for logical hybrid entanglement (MBEPP-LHE) in linear optics. We first demonstrate the principle of the MBEPP-LHE in the case that all logical BSMs (LBSMs) are perfect. Additionally, we consider that one of the components of the LBSM, i.e., the BSM for DVs or the BSM for CVs, fails on specific modes. The results indicate that the MBEPP-LHE can still work provided that at least one of the components of the LBSM is successful, which is the advantage of this purification compared to the previous MBEPPs. Moreover, the MBEPP-LHE can correct bit-flip and phase-flip errors not only on logical qubits but also on physical qubits. Furthermore, we show that the success probability of MBEPP-DV is the lower bound of that of MBEPP-LHE, while the success probability of the MBEPP-LHE has the same upper bound as MBEPP-CV. Finally, we also carry out the analysis of purifying the logical hybrid entanglement polluted by the dissipation error on coherent-state mode, and this error can be converted to bit-flip error on single-photon mode.

Multipartite entanglement purification for three-level trapped atom systems

Yu‐Bo Sheng, Jiong Liu, Sheng-Yang Zhao

We describe an entanglement purification protocol (EPP) for multipartite three-level atomic entangled pair using photonic Faraday rotation. In this EPP, the multipartite atomic entangled state can be purified with the help of some single photons. This protocol resorts to the photonic Faraday rotation to realize the function of the controlled-Not (CNOT) gate. The purified multipartite atomic entangled state can be retained and to be repeated to reach a higher fidelity.

High-efficient two-step entanglement purification using hyperentanglement

Lan Zhou, Yu‐Bo Sheng

Entanglement purification is a powerful method to distill the high-quality entanglement from low-quality entanglement. In the paper, we propose an efficient two-step entanglement purification protocol (EPP) for the polarization entanglement by using only one copy of two-photon hyperentangled state in polarization, spatial-mode, and time-bin DOFs. We suppose that the entanglement in all DOFs suffer from channel noise. In two purification steps, the parties can reduce the bit-flip error and phase-flip error in polarization DOF by consuming the imperfect entanglement in the spatial-mode and time-bin DOFs, respectively. This EPP effectively reduces the consumption of entanglement pairs and the experimental difficulty. Moreover, if consider the practical photon transmission and detector efficiencies, our EPP has much higher purification efficiency than previous recurrence EPPs. Meanwhile, when one or two purification steps fail, the distilled mixed state may have residual entanglement. Taking use of the residual entanglement, the parties may still distill higher-quality polarization entanglement. Even if not, they can still reuse the residual entanglement in the next purification round. The existence of residual entanglement benefits for increasing the yield of the EPP. All the above advantages make our EPP have potential application in future quantum information processing.
