Dicke state generation using cross-Kerr nonlinearity

Chuan Xi Wang, Yong Zhang, Guang-Sheng Jin

Published Dec 15, 2010• 5 citations

Abstract

In this paper, we propose two ways of Dicke state generation using single photons and weak coherent pulse resorting to Kerr nonlinearities. By interference of two coherent beams, the Dicke state are realized in polarization and photon number degrees of freedom. By performing homodyne detection on the coherent states, the multi-particle entangled Dicke state can be generated with a high probability. The realization of the protocols are more flexible as the phase differences can be easily distinguished during homodyne detection.

Generation of four-photon polarization entangled states with cross-Kerr nonlinearity

Meiyu Wang, Fengli Yan

We show how to prepare three different types of four-photon polarization entangled states among four modes. The scheme only use cross-Kerr medium, polarization beam splitters and X homodyne measurements on coherent light fields, which can be efficiently implemented in quantum optical laboratories. GHZ states and symmetric Dick states can be generated in deterministic way based on the scheme. With the possible availability of suitable strong Kerr nonlinearity, another type of entangled state called genuine four-photon entangled state can be realized as well.

Generating entanglement of photon-number states with coherent light via cross-Kerr nonlinearity

Zhi‐Ming Zhang, Jian Hua Yang, Ya‐Fei Yu

We propose a scheme for generating entangled states of light fields. This scheme only requires the cross-Kerr nonlinear interaction between coherent light beams, followed by a homodyne detection. Therefore, this scheme is within the reach of current technology. We study in detail the generation of the entangled states between two modes, and that among three modes. In addition to the Bell states between two modes and the W states among three modes, we find plentiful new kinds of entangled states. Finally, the scheme can be extended to generate the entangled states among more than three modes.

Generating polarization-entangled W states using weak nonlinearity

Ming Yuan Gao, Wenhua Hu, Cheng-Zu Li

We present a scheme for preparing three-photon polarization-entangled W states. The signal photons and a strong probe field interact via weak cross-Kerr nonlinearity that conditionally causes a phase shift on the probe coherent state. A W state is then prepared with a high success probability by the homodyne measurement and postselection. The generating method is simple and efficient.

We propose a protocol to generate a four-photon polarization-entangled cluster state with cross-Kerr nonlinearity by using the interference of polarized photons. The protocol is based on optical elements, cross-Kerr nonlinearity, and homodyne measurement, therefore it is feasible with current experimental technology. The success probability of our protocol is optimal, this property makes our protocol more efficient than others in the applications of quantum communication.
