Conversion of entangled states with nitrogen-vacancy centers coupled to microtoroidal resonators

Abstract

We propose efficient schemes for converting three-photon, four-photon and five-photon GHZ state to a W state or Dicke state, respectively with the nitrogen-vacancy (N-V) centers via single-photon input-output process and cross-Kerr nonlinearities. The total success probability can be improved by iterating the conversion process for the case of three-photon and five-photon while it does not require iteration for converting four-photon GHZ state to a W state. The analysis of feasibility shows that our scheme is feasible for current experimental technology.

Synchronized preparation of bi- and tri-qubit entanglement with nitrogen-vacancy centers coupled to microtoroidal resonators

Taian Wang, Shuai Feng, Yong Zhang

We research the input–output process with nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers fixed on the surface of micro-toroidal resonators (MTRs) with whispering-gallery modes (WGMs) and then present an efficient scheme for the synchronized generation of Bell and W states. In our scheme, entanglement can be prepared with the assistance of the polarized photon pulse and electron spin state of NV center. The analysis of the efficiency shows that our scheme is feasible with the current technology, which can be further used for quantum information processing.

Quantum state engineering with nitrogen-vacancy centers coupled to low-Q microresonator

Liu‐Yong Cheng, Hong‐Fu Wang, Shou Zhang +1 more

We demonstrate efficient schemes of deterministic entanglement generation and quantum state transfer (QST) with the nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers in diamond confined in separated microtoroidal resonators via single-photon input-output process. Assisted by the polarization of input photon pulse and the electron spin state of NV center, high fidelity NV center entangled states and photonic entangled states can be generated, respectively. The analyses of experimental feasibility show that our schemes work well with low quality resonators and weak coupling between qubits, which may be beneficial for exploring large-scale quantum information processing with diamond-based solid-state devices.

A scheme for preparing cluster state with nitrogen-vacancy centers and microtoroidal resonator coupled systems

Lizhi Yu, Tao Wu

Quantum entanglement is a key resource in quantum information processing. In this paper, we propose a scheme for preparing a cluster entangled state by means of multiple nitrogen vacancy centers and microtoroidal resonator coupled systems. The scheme employs an input–output process and single-photon interference, without any other auxiliary entanglement particles or classical communication. Considering the current experimental technology, the scheme will be implemented and has an important role in the preparation of cluster entangled state by means of nitrogen vacancy centers and microtoroidal resonator coupled systems.

Nonlocal entanglement concentration of separate nitrogen-vacancy centers coupling to microtoroidal resonators

Chuan Xi Wang, Yong Zhang, Ming Lei +3 more

Here we propose two practical protocols to concentrate entanglement between separate nitrogen-vacancy (N-V) centers in less entangled state via coupling to microtoroidal resonators. We construct the parity check gate of the N-V center and microtoroidal resonator systems via the interaction with the ancillary photon input-output process near the microtoroidal resonators. Thus the parity of the N-V center state can be readout by the measurement on the ancillary photon. Then we introduce the parity check operations to entanglement concentration protocols. Considering current techniques, we also discuss the feasibility of our proposal and its experimental challenges.

Concentration on partially entangled W-class states on nitrogen-vacancy centers assisted by microresonator

Cong Cao, Tie-Jun Wang, Ru Zhang +1 more

We propose an entanglement concentration protocol (ECP) for spatially separated negatively charged nitrogen-vacancy (N-V) centers in a partially entangled W state, resorting to a hybrid quantum circuit and some ancillary single photons. The hybrid quantum circuit is composed of a single N-V center coupled on the periphery of a microtoroidal resonator and linear-optical elements. Exploiting currently available techniques (for example, the single-photon input–output process), the standard maximally entangled W state could be distilled from the initial partially entangled W state. Compared with other ECPs for W-class states, we discuss the advantages of the present protocol. Further, the feasibility and the experimental challenges of the protocol are discussed by considering currently available techniques.

Effective W-state fusion strategies in nitrogen-vacancy centers via coupling to microtoroidal resonators

Xue Yan Han, Qi Guo, Ai‐Dong Zhu +2 more

We propose effective W-state fusion schemes for nonlocal electron-spin states and photon states by using the nitrogen-vacancy centers defect in diamond coupled to microtoroidal resonators. Using these schemes, a (m+n-1)-qubit W state can be obtained by fusing n-qubit and m-qubit W states (m, n ≥ 2), which means these schemes are applicable to create arbitrary scale W states with Bell states as the initial resource. The construction of these schemes is very compact and simple compared with the previous logical-gate-based fusion schemes. We analyze the feasibility and evaluate the optimal resource cost of the schemes, which shows that the present schemes can be realized with high fidelities and less resource cost than the previous schemes. Our schemes may be significant for the large-scale solid-state-based entanglement generation and for photon-qubit-based quantum information processing tasks.
