Teleporting with light : quantum optical implementations of quantum teleportation

Abstract

This thesis is concerned with variations on, and improvements to, optical strategies of implementing quantum teleportation. In particular, I investigate four continuous variable teleportation schemes. Two schemes are based upon number-phase entanglement between two coupled harmonic oscillator modes. Joint measurements of number and phase on the coupled states are the basis for the protocols. The effects of phase decoherence on output quality are analysed and an equivalent classical protocol is introduced. The two remaining schemes improve and extend standard continuous variable teleportation. In one, coincidence measurements on the two-mode squeezed vacuum condition the entanglement resource, improving the efficacy of the protocol. In the other, the measurements made by the sender and displacements performed by the receiver are tailored to make more efficient use of the available information. In each case the protocol is described and relevant output parameters derived. The trends in output quality with respect to input parameters are interpreted and discussed.

The investigation of quantum polarisation teleportation protocols

A. Dolińska

The continuous variables regime offers much promise for quantum information and computation protocols. In particular, the continuous variable polarisation teleportation is of great interest, both theoretically and experimentally, at the moment. In this thesis three schemes for continuous variable polarisation teleportation are analysed and their performance is rated. The double teleporter setup, the quantum nondemolition teleporter scheme and the biased entanglement teleporter setup are each discussed and evaluated. Two methods are employed for the evaluation of the teleportation success. The TV diagram which stresses the usefulness of the experimental design and the fidelity, which measures the quantum input to output state preservation. It is later shown that these two independent assessments, which consider physically different attributes, yield contradicting conclusions. Further it is shown that it is important to decide whether the objective of the polarisation teleportation is the transfer of information or the quantum state recreation before meaningful analysis using TV or fidelity can be made. Finally, a study of a special cloning limit for a particular input state is made, related to the two of the above polarisation teleportation schemes. A new cloning fidelity limit is derived for these cases and TV cloning limits of information transfer and correlations are discussed.

Quantum teleportation with squeezed vacuum states

Gerard J Milburn, Samuel L. Braunstein

We show how the partial entanglement inherent in a two-mode squeezed vacuum state admits two different teleportation protocols. These two protocols refer to the different kinds of joint measurements that may be made by the sender. One protocol is the recently implemented quadrature phase approach of Braunstein and Kimble [Phys. Rev. Lett. $80,$ 869 (1998)]. The other is based on recognizing that a two-mode squeezed vacuum state is also entangled with respect to photon-number difference and phase sum. We show that this protocol can also realize teleportation; however, limitations can arise due to the fact that the photon-number spectrum is bounded from below by zero. Our examples show that a given entanglement resource may admit more than a single teleportation protocol and the question then arises as to what is the optimum protocol in the general case.

Quantum teleportation of light beams

Ting Zhang, Kok Win Goh, C. W. Chou +2 more

We experimentally demonstrate quantum teleportation for continuous variables using squeezed-state entanglement. The teleportation fidelity for a real experimental system is calculated explicitly, including relevant imperfection factors such as propagation losses, detection inefficiencies, and phase fluctuations. The inferred fidelity for input coherent states is $F=0.61\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.02,$ which when corrected for the efficiency of detection by the output observer, gives a fidelity of $0.62.$ By contrast, the projected result based on the independently measured entanglement and efficiencies is $0.69.$ The teleportation protocol is explained in detail, including a discussion on discrepancy between experiment and theory, as well as on the limitations of the current apparatus.

Entanglement generation and applications in quantum information

Tiegang Di

This dissertation consists of three sections. In the first section, we discuss the generation \nof arbitrary two-qubit entangled states and present three generation methods. \nThe first method is based on the interaction of an atom with classical and quantized \ncavity fields. The second method is based on the interaction of two coupled two-level \natoms with a laser field. In the last method, we use two spin-1/2 systems which \ninteract with a tuned radio frequency pulse. Using those methods we have generated \ntwo qubit arbitrary entangled states which is widely used in quantum computing and \nquantum information. In the second section, we discuss a possible experimental implementation \nof quantum walk which is based on the passage of an atom through a \nhigh-Q cavity. The chirality is determined by the atomic states and the displacement \nis characterized by the photon number inside the cavity. Our scheme makes quantum \nwalk possible in a cavity QED system and the results could be widely used on \nquantum computer. In the last section, we investigate the properties of teleporting \nan arbitrary superposition of entangled Dicke states of any number of atoms (qubits) \nbetween two distant cavities. We also studied teleporting continuous variables of an \noptical field. Teleportation of Dicke states relies on adiabatic passage using multiatom \ndark states in each cavity and a conditional detection of photons leaking out of both cavities. In the continuous variables teleportation scheme we first reformulate \nthe protocol of quantum teleportation of arbitrary input optical field states in \nthe density matrix form, and established the relation between the P-function of the \ninput and output states. We then present a condition involving squeeze parameter \nand detection efficiency under which the P-function of the output state becomes the \nQ function of the input state such that any nonclassical features in the input state \nwill be eliminated in the teleported state. Based on the research in this section we \nhave made it possible of arbitrary atomic Dicke states teleportation from one cavity \nto another, and this teleortation will play an essential role in quantum communication. \nSince quantum properties is so important in quantum communication, the \ncondition we give in this section to distinguish classical and quantum teleportation is \nalso important.

Continuous variable teleportation requires optical coherence

Terry Rudolph, Barry C. Sanders

Summary form only given. Quantum teleportation, first proposed as a method for teleporting an unknown spin-1/2 quantum state from a sender, "Alice", to a receiver, "Bob", has been extended to continuous-variable quantum teleportation (CVQT). In this variant of quantum teleportation, Bob and Alice share a nonlocal entangled two-mode field which, ideally, should have perfect correlations between in-phase quadrature ('position' x) and out-of-phase quadrature ('momentum' p), although the requirement of perfect correlations can be relaxed somewhat. The experimental success of CVQT has recently been reported, with two-mode squeezed light providing the nonlocal, entangled source shared between Alice and Bob. The objective here is to consider whether CVQT has indeed been achieved, or could ever be achieved, in optical experiments employing conventional laser sources. In particular we show that, in the context of this experiment, Alice and Bob may not employ independent laser sources for their operations if the state is to be teleported, yet this requires them to share more than just the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) resource.

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.
