Teleportation of Superposition of Coherent States Using 4-Partite States and Effect of Decoherence on Fidelity

Abstract

A scheme of teleporting a superposition of coherent states |α> and |-α> using a 4-partite state, a beam splitter and two phase shifters was proposed by N. Ba An (Phys. Rev. A, 68, 022321, 2003). The author concluded that the probability for successful teleportation is only 1/4 in the limit |α|→∞ and 1/2 in the limit |α|→∞. In this paper it is shown that the author’s scheme can be altered slightly so as to obtain an almost perfect teleportation for an appreciable value of |α|2. We find the minimum assured fidelity i.e., the minimum fidelity for an arbitrarily chosen information state, which we write MAF in this paper, for different cases. We also discuss the effect of decoherence on teleportation fidelity. We find that if no photons are counted in both final outputs, MAF, is still nonzero except when there is no decoherence and the initial state (the state to be teleported) is even coherent state. For non-zero photon counts, MAF decreases with increase in |α|2 for low noise. For high noise, however, it increases, attains a maximum value and then decreases with |α|2. The average fidelity depends appreciably on the initial state for low values of |α|2 only.

A scheme of teleporting a superposition of coherent states |α⟩ and | − α⟩ using a beam splitter and two phase shifters was proposed by van Enk and Hirota (2001 Phys. Rev. A 64 022313). The authors concluded that the probability for successful teleportation is 1/2. In this paper, it is shown that the authors' scheme can be altered slightly so as to obtain an almost perfect teleportation for an appreciable value of |α| 2 . For |α| 2 = 5, the minimum of average fidelity, which is the minimum of the sum of the product of probability of occurrence of any case, and the corresponding fidelity is less than 1 by a quantity ∼10 −4 . We also discuss the effect of decoherence on teleportation fidelity. We find that if no photons are counted in both final outputs, the minimum assured fidelity is still non-zero except when there is no decoherence and the information is an even coherent state. For non-zero photon counts, minimum assured fidelity decreases with an increase in |α| 2 for low noise. For high noise, however, it increases, attains a maximum value and then decreases with |α| 2 . The average fidelity depends appreciably on the information for low values of |α| 2 only.

EFFECT OF DECOHERENCE ON FIDELITY IN TELEPORTATION OF ENTANGLED COHERENT STATES

Hari Prakash, Naresh Chandra, R. PRAKASH +1 more

We consider the scheme proposed by Wang [Phys. Rev. A64 (2001) 022302] for teleporting bipartite entangled states, which is a superposition of coherent states |α,α〉 and |-α,-α〉, with our suggested modification [Phys. Rev. A75 (2007) 044305] and discuss the effect of decoherence on teleportation fidelity. We find that if no photons are counted in both final outputs, the minimum assured fidelity (MAF), which is the minimum of the fidelity for any arbitrary information), is still nonzero except for the case when there is no decoherence and the information is in even coherent state. For non-zero photon counts, MAF decreases with increase in |α|2 for low noise but in the case of high noise, it increases, attains a maximum value and then decreases with |α|2. We discuss the variation of average fidelity with |α|2 and show that it depends appreciably on the information for low values of |α|2 only.

ALMOST PERFECT TELEPORTATION USING 4-PARTITE ENTANGLED STATES

Hari Prakash, Naresh Chandra, R. PRAKASH +1 more

In a recent paper N. Ba An (Phys. Rev. A68, 022321 (2003)) proposed a scheme to teleport a single particle state, which is superposition of coherent states |α〉 and |-α〉 using a 4-partite state, a beam splitter, and phase shifters and concluded that the probability for successful teleportation is only 1/4 in the limit |α| → 0 and 1/2 in the limit |α| → ∞. In this paper, we modify this scheme and find that an almost perfect success can be achieved if |α|2 is appreciable. For example, for |α|2 = 5, the minimum of average fidelity for teleportation, which is the minimum of sum of the product of probability for occurrence of any case and the corresponding fidelity evaluated for an arbitrary chosen information state, is 0.9999.

We consider the scheme proposed by Wang [Phys. Rev. A 64, 022302 (2001)] for teleporting bipartite entangled states using beam splitters and phase shifters.

Improving the Teleportation of Superposition of Entangled Coherent States

Shivani A. Kumar

I consider the teleportation of superposition of coherent states and using beam splitters and phase shifters. I propose some modifications which consist of writing the output state as a superposition of the vacuum state and nonzero even photon state, which allow for an almost perfect teleportation to be achieved for an appreciable mean number of photons.

Entangled Coherent States in Teleportation

Shivani A. Kumar, Shefali Kanwar, Pramila Shukla

In the present paper, we will review the methods to produce superposition of entangled coherent state using polarizing beam splitter and Kerr non linearity. These coherent states have many attractive features and can be used in various schemes. Entanglement, refers to the superposition of a multiparticle system and explains a new type of correlations between any two subsystems of the quantum system, which is not existing in the classical physics. The present paper deals with the use of these states in quantum teleportation, entanglement diversion and entanglement swapping schemes. Entanglement diversion and entanglement-swapping refers to a scheme which may entangle those particles which had never interacted before. In the swapping scheme, two pairs of entangled state are taken. One particle from each pair is subjected to a Bell-state-measurement. This would result in projection of the other two outgoing particles in an entangled pair. Quantum Teleportation of two mode and three modes states is also studied with perfect fidelity. Minimum assured fidelity which is defined as the minimum of the fidelity for any unknown quantum information of the states is also discussed. It is also shown how the success rate of teleportation of a superposition of odd and even coherent states can be increased from 50% to almost 100%. The scheme suggested by van Enk and Hirota was modified by Prakash, Chandra, Prakash and Shivani in 2007. We find that an almost teleportation, diversion and swapping is possible by simply separating vacuum state from the even state. The present paper also deals with study of effect of decoherence and noise on these states and the effect of noise on fidelity and minimum assured fidelity. It is also discussed that these schemes can also be applied to the process of entanglement diversion and entanglement swapping.
