We study an entangled coherent state within the framework of 2×2 dimensional Hilbert space and show that it can perfectly teleport some quantum information. We assess how useful it is when the entangled coherent state decoheres.
We study an entangled two-mode coherent state within the framework of 2times2 dimensional Hilbert space and suggest a scheme to teleport a coherent superposition state. When the entangled coherent state decays into the vacuum, it is found that its evolved state always remains entangled and the larger the coherent amplitude, the faster entanglement decreases. We find that the decohered entangled coherent state can be useless in quantum teleportation as it gives the optimal fidelity of teleportation less than the classical limit 2/3.
We study an entangled two-mode coherent state within the framework of2×2-dimensional Hilbert space. We investigate the problem of quantum teleportation ofa superposition coherent state via an entangled coherent channel. By three differentmeasures with the titles ``minimum assured fidelity (MASF)”, ``average teleportationfidelity” and ``optimal fidelity (f)” we study the quality of this kind of teleportation.Decoherence properties of the entangled coherent state due to channel losses areanalysed. For a symmetric noise channel, the degradation of optimal fidelity and degreeof entanglement are calculated. Also by two different measures with the titles``concurrence” and ``entanglement of formation” we study the amount of entanglementof a decohered quantum channel and discuss its details. We demonstrate thatentanglement of the decohered entangled coherent state is reduced but not throughlylost. Finally we find that the optimal fidelity of the decohered entangled coherent state ismore than the classical limit and the decohered entangled coherent state may be usefulfor quantum teleportation.
An entangled two-mode coherent state is studied within the framework of 2\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}2-dimensional Hilbert space. An entanglement concentration scheme based on joint Bell-state measurements is worked out. When the entangled coherent state is embedded in vacuum environment, its entanglement is degraded but not totally lost. It is found that the larger the initial coherent amplitude, the faster entanglement decreases. We investigate a scheme to teleport a coherent superposition state while considering a mixed quantum channel. We find that the decohered entangled coherent state may be useless for quantum teleportation as it gives the optimal fidelity of teleportation less than the classical limit 2/3.
Quantum nonlocality is tested for an entangled coherent state, interacting with a dissipative environment. A pure entangled coherent state violates Bell's inequality regardless of its coherent amplitude. The higher the initial nonlocality, the more rapidly quantum nonlocality is lost. The entangled coherent state can also be investigated in the framework of 2times2 Hilbert space. The quantum nonlocality persists longer in 2times2 Hilbert space. When it decoheres it is found that the entangled coherent state fails the nonlocality test, which contrasts with the fact that the decohered entangled state is always entangled.
A bidirectional quantum teleportation protocol is introduced over a quantum network consisting of more than four members sharing a coherent entangled state, where it is implemented in a perfect or noisy environment. The results show that the amplitude of the coherent state and the decoherence parameter play important roles in maximizing or minimizing this probability. At fixed values of the amplitude and decoherence parameters, the success of probability increases as the number of users increases. The fidelity of the teleported coherent state depends on the type of encoded information, whether entangled/partial or classical information, namely, it depends on the weight parameter. The stable behavior of the fidelity is displayed when users teleport classical information.
