Abstract
We present a scheme for the teleportation of two-qubit entangled atomic states using the idea of a quantum controlled-NOT gate, based on cavity-assisted collisions proposed by Zheng and Guo (2000 Phys. Rev. Lett. 85 2392). In this scheme, there is only virtual exchange of photons; thus the quantum information is not transferred between the atoms and the cavity field and so the decoherence time of the cavity is greatly enhanced.
