Spin Grouping in Ring Cavity and Its Protection on Entangled States Transfer

Abstract

Long-range interactions are essential for large-scale quantum computation and quantum interconnections. Cavities provide a promising avenue to achieve long-range interaction by enhancing the coupling of remote qubits through shared cavity modes. In this Letter, we investigate a spin array coupled to a ring cavity supporting two counterpropagating modes, focusing on the system's eigenstates and spin dynamics in the low-excitation regime. We show that, under specific spatial configurations, the spins naturally self-organize into two groups, within which exciton transport is confined. This spin-grouping mechanism preserves coherence between spins across the two groups, and is leveraged to deterministically transfer entangled states between remote spin pairs with additional dynamical addressing. We further propose feasible implementations using atomic qubits or solid-state platforms. Our scheme enables entangling remote spins within a cavity, highlighting potential applications in scalable quantum information processing.

Spin Qubits in Photon-Coupled Microwave Cavities

Samuel Johnson, Nancy Sandler

Electron spin qubits in microwave cavities provide a promising platform for scalable quantum computing hardware, leveraging long coherence times, charge-noise robustness and cavity mediated qubit-qubit interactions. While the strong spin-photon coupling regime is accessible via on-chip micromagnets, scaling conventional architectures by placing multiple qubits within a single shared resonator degrades transmission amplitudes, hence limiting large-scale efficiency. To overcome this limitation, we analyze a modular architecture where individual cavities containing a limited number of qubits are coupled via single-photon-exchange waveguides. Using input/output theory, we compute the transmission amplitudes for networks of two and three coupled cavities in various configurations. We map out the distinct physical regimes accessible by tuning key system parameters, offering a viable pathway for scalable cavity-based quantum spin qubit networks.

Enhanced stripe phases in spin-orbit-coupled Bose-Einstein condensates in ring cavities

Farokh Mivehvar, David L. Feder

The coupled dynamics of the atom and photon fields in optical ring cavities with two counterpropagating modes give rise to both spin-orbit interactions as well as long-ranged interactions between atoms of a many-body system. At zero temperature, the interplay between the two-body and cavity-mediated interactions determines the ground state of a Bose-Einstein condensate. In this work, we find that cavity quantum electrodynamics in the weak-coupling regime favors a stripe-phase state over a plane-wave phase as the strength of cavity-mediated interactions increases. Indeed, the stripe phase is energetically stabilized even for condensates with attractive intraspecies and interspecies interactions for sufficiently large cavity interactions. The elementary excitation spectra in both phases correspond to linear dispersion relation at long wavelengths, indicating that both phases exhibit superfluidity, although the plane-wave phase also displays a characteristic roton-type feature. The results suggest that even in the weak-coupling regime, cavities can yield interesting new physics in ultracold quantum gases.

Transferring entanglement to the steady state of flying qubits

Yanqiang Guo, Jie Li, Tiancai Zhang +1 more

The transfer of entanglement from optical fields to qubits provides a viable approach to entangling remote qubits in a quantum network. In cavity quantum electrodynamics, the scheme relies on the interaction between a photonic resource and two stationary intracavity atomic qubits. However, it might be hard in practice to trap two atoms simultaneously and synchronize their coupling to the cavities. To address this point, we propose and study entanglement transfer from cavities driven by an entangled external field to controlled flying qubits. We consider two exemplary non-Gaussian driving fields: NOON and entangled coherent states. We show that in the limit of long coherence time of the cavity fields, when the dynamics is approximately unitary, entanglement is transferred from the driving field to two atomic qubits that cross the cavities. On the other hand, a dissipation-dominated dynamics leads to very weakly quantum-correlated atomic systems, as witnessed by vanishing quantum discord.

Cavity-mediated iSWAP oscillations between distant spins

Jurgen Dijkema, Xiao Xue, Patrick Harvey-Collard +6 more

Direct interactions between quantum particles naturally fall off with distance. However, future quantum computing architectures are likely to require interaction mechanisms between qubits across a range of length scales. In this work, we demonstrate a coherent interaction between two semiconductor spin qubits 250 μm apart using a superconducting resonator. This separation is several orders of magnitude larger than for the commonly used direct interaction mechanisms in this platform. We operate the system in a regime in which the resonator mediates a spin-spin coupling through virtual photons. We report the anti-phase oscillations of the populations of the two spins with controllable frequency. The observations are consistent with iSWAP oscillations of the spin qubits, and suggest that entangling operations are possible in 10 ns. These results hold promise for scalable networks of spin qubit modules on a chip.

Proposal for a loophole-free Bell test based on spin–photon interactions in cavities

Nicolas Brunner, A. B. Young, Chengyong Hu +1 more

We present a scheme to demonstrate loophole-free Bell inequality violation where the entanglement between photon pairs is transferred to solid state (spin) qubits mediated by cavity QED interactions. As this transfer can be achieved in a heralded way, our scheme is basically insensitive to losses on the channel, and works also in the weak coupling regime. We consider potential experimental realizations using single atom, colour centre and quantum dot cavity systems. Finally our scheme appears to be promising for implementing quantum information protocols based on non-locality. Here we discuss a possible implementation of device-independent quantum key distribution.

Interacting electrons in silicon quantum interconnects

Anantha S. Rao, Christopher David White, Sean R. Muleady +2 more

Coherent interconnects between gate-defined silicon quantum processing units are essential for scalable quantum computation and long-range entanglement. We argue that one-dimensional electron channels formed in the silicon quantum well of a Si/SiGe heterostructure exhibit strong Coulomb interactions and realize strongly interacting Luttinger liquid physics. At low electron densities, the system enters a Wigner regime characterized by dominant 4kF correlations; increasing the electron density leads to a crossover from the Wigner regime to a Friedel regime with dominant 2kF correlations. We support these results through large-scale density matrix renormalization group (DMRG) simulations of the interacting ground state under both screened and unscreened Coulomb potentials. We propose experimental signatures of the Wigner-Friedel crossover via charge transport and charge sensing in both zero- and high-magnetic field limits. We also analyze the impact of short-range correlated disorder - including random alloy fluctuations and valley splitting variations - and identify that the Wigner-Friedel crossover remains robust until disorder levels of about 400 micro eV. Finally, we show that the Wigner regime enables long-range capacitive coupling between quantum dots across the interconnect, suggesting a route to create long-range entanglement between solid-state qubits. Our results position silicon interconnects as a platform for studying Luttinger liquid physics and for enabling architectures supporting nonlocal quantum error correction and quantum simulation.
