Super sensitivity and super resolution with quantum teleportation

Abstract

Abstract We propose a method for quantum enhanced phase estimation based on continuous variable (CV) quantum teleportation. The phase shift probed by a coherent state can be enhanced by repeatedly teleporting the state back to interact with the phase shift again using a supply of two-mode squeezed vacuum states. In this way a sequential protocol exhibiting both super-resolution and super-sensitivity can be obtained due to the coherent addition of the phase shift. The protocol enables Heisenberg-limited sensitivity and super-resolution given sufficiently strong squeezing. The proposed method could be implemented with current or near-term technology of CV teleportation.

Controlled quantum teleportation between discrete and continuous physical systems

Abstract Quantum teleportation of an unknown state basing on the interaction between discrete-valued states (DV) and continuous-valued states (CV) presented a particular challenge in quantum technologies. Here we consider the problem of controlled quantum teleportation of an amplitude-matched CV qubit, encoded by a coherent state of a varied phase as a superposition of the vacuum- and single-photon optical states among two distant partners Alice and Bob, with the consent of controller, Charlie. To achieve this task, we use an hybrid tripartite entangled state (interaction between the discrete and continuous variables states) as the quantum resource where the coherent part belongs to Alice, while the single-photon belongs to Bob and Charlie and the CV qubit is at the disposal of Alice. The discrete-continuous interaction is realized on highly transmissive beam-splitter. We have shown that the perfectly of teleportation fidelity depends on the phase difference between the phase of the state to teleport and the phase of the sender’s mode, we found that for a difference which approaches 0 or π , near perfect controlled quantum teleportation can be obtained in terms of the fidelity and independently of the amplitude α and the squeezing parameter ζ . Experimentally, this proposed scheme has been implemented using linear optical components such as beam splitter, phase shifters and photon counters.

Continuous-variable quantum information processing with squeezed states of light

Hidehiro Yonezawa, Akira Furusawa

We investigate experiments of continuous-variable quantum information processing based on the teleportation scheme. Quantum teleportation, which is realized by a two-mode squeezed vacuum state and measurement-and-feedforward, is considered as an elementary quantum circuit as well as quantum communication. By modifying ancilla states or measurement-and-feedforwards, we can realize various quantum circuits which suffice for universal quantum computation. In order to realize the teleportation-based computation we improve the level of squeezing, and fidelity of teleportation. With a high-fidelity teleporter we demonstrate some advanced teleportation experiments, i.e., teleportation of a squeezed state and sequential teleportation of a coherent state. Moreover, as an example of the teleportation-based computation, we build a QND interaction gate which is a continuous-variable analog of a CNOT gate. A QND interaction gate is constructed only with ancillary squeezed vacuum states and measurement-and-feedforwards. We also create continuous-variable four mode cluster type entanglement for further application, namely, one-way quantum computation.

High-fidelity continuous-variable quantum teleportation toward multistep quantum operations

Mitsuyoshi Yukawa, Hugo Benichi, Akira Furusawa

The progress in quantum operations of continuous-variable (CV) schemes can be reduced to that in CV quantum teleportation. The fidelity of quantum teleportation of an optical setup is limited by the finite degree of quantum correlation that can be prepared with a pair of finitely squeezed states. Reports of improvement of squeezing level have appeared recently, and we adopted the improved methods in our experimental system of quantum teleportation. As a result, we teleported a coherent state with a fidelity $F=0.83\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.01$, which is better than any other figures reported to date, to our knowledge. In this paper, we introduce a measure ${n}_{s}$, the number of teleportations expected to be carried out sequentially. Our result corresponds to ${n}_{s}=5.0\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.4$. It suggests that our improvement would enable us to proceed toward more advanced quantum operations involving multiple steps.

Analysis of continuous-variable quantum teleportation enhanced by measurement-based noiseless quantum amplification

Jaromı́r Fiurášek

Continuous-variable quantum teleportation enables deterministic teleportation of quantum states of optical modes. However, the state transfer is imperfect and limited by the amount of squeezing in the shared two-mode entangled state. Recently, it has been proposed and experimentally demonstrated that the performance of continuous-variable teleportation can be conditionally improved using a measurement-based noiseless quantum amplification [J. Zhao et al., Nat. Commun.14, 4745 (2023)10.1038/s41467-023-40438-z]. An inverse Gaussian filter with sufficiently high cut-off is applied to outcomes of the continuous-variable Bell measurement, which can increase the fidelity of state teleportation and the cost of making the protocol probabilistic. Here we provide a detailed theoretical analysis of this protocol and discuss its effects and limitations. We focus on teleportation of classes of Gaussian states with fixed covariance matrix and variable displacement. The measurement-based noiseless amplification conditionally improves the precision of estimation of the coherent displacement of the teleported state from the outcomes of continuous-variable Bell measurement. Therefore, more information about the teleported state is revealed and unity-gain teleportation becomes possible with a lower added thermal noise as compared to deterministic teleportation.

Teleportation improvement by conditional measurements on the two-mode squeezed vacuum

P. T. Cochrane, Timothy C. Ralph, Gerard J Milburn

We show that by making conditional measurements on the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) squeezed vacuum [T. Opatrn\'y, G. Kurizki, and D.-G. Welsch, Phys. Rev. A 61, 032302 (2000)], one can improve the efficacy of teleportation for both the position-difference, momentum-sum, and number-difference, phase-sum continuous variable teleportation protocols. We investigate the relative abilities of the standard and conditional EPR states, and show that by conditioning we can improve the fidelity of teleportation of coherent states from below to above the $\overline{F}=2/3$ boundary, thereby achieving unambiguously quantum teleportation.

High-Fidelity Teleportation of Continuous-Variable Quantum States Using Delocalized Single Photons

Ulrik L. Andersen, Timothy C. Ralph

Traditional continuous-variable teleportation can only approach unit fidelity in the limit of an infinite (and unphysical) amount of squeezing. We describe a new method for continuous-variable teleportation that approaches unit fidelity with finite resources. The protocol is not based on squeezed states as in traditional teleportation but on an ensemble of single photon entangled states. We characterize the teleportation scheme with coherent states, mesoscopic superposition states, and two-mode squeezed states and we find several situations in which near-unity teleportation fidelity can be obtained with modest resources.
