The generation of entangled states from independent particle sources

Morton H. Rubin, Yanhua H. Shih

Published May 1, 1994• 0 citations

Abstract

The generation of entangled states of two systems from product states is discussed for the case in which the paths of the two systems do not overlap. A particular method of measuring allows one to project out the nonlocal entangled state. An application to the production of four photon entangled states is outlined.

Multi-Particle Interferometry Based on Double Entangled States

T. B. Pittman, Yanhua H. Shih, Dmitry Strekalov +2 more

A method for producing a 4-photon entangled state based on the use of two independent pair sources is discussed. Of particular interest is that each of the pair sources produces a two-photon state which is simultaneously entangled in both polarization and space-time variables. Performing certain measurements which exploit this double entanglement provides an opportunity for verifying the recent demonstration of nonlocality by Greenberger, Horne, and Zeilinger.

Entanglement

Ian R. Kenyon

Abstract The distiction between classical product states and quantum entangled states is disclosed with examples. Spontaneous parametric down conversion as a source of entangled photons is described. The action of a perfect beam splitter is analysed using creation and annihilation operators. The HOM interferometer is described. Its use in demonstrating the indistinguishability of photons and in measuring bandwidth of sources at the level of femtoseconds is recounted. Two particle entanglement is analysed using the Bloch sphere representation showing how the full knowledge of the entangled state does not fix the state of the individual particles. The four Bell states, eigenstates of two particle entanglement, are introduced. Teleportation of a photon state using entangled photons is described, and an experiment to entangle the quantum states of atoms at space-like separation outlined.

Creation of Entanglement with Nonlocal Operations

Zhang, Yong, Cao +3 more

We discuss how to create more entanglement with nonlocal operations acting on two-particle states. For a given nonlocal operation, we find that some input states cannot produce entanglement and some produce the maximal entanglement, and find that any initial entangled states can produce more entanglement than initial product states.
