Remote preparation of an atomic quantum memory

Abstract

In this paper, we present the first experimental demonstration of the remote preparation of an internal state of a single87Rb atom. Our approach uses atom-photon entanglement as the interface between the two quantum systems and allows to distantly prepare an arbitrary quantum state of a distant atomic qubit. For this purpose we use the quantum teleportation protocol, where the desired state is first prepared on the photon and, after Bell state measurement, transferred to the atom.

Remote Preparation of an Atomic Quantum Memory

Wenjamin Rosenfeld, Stefan Berner, Jürgen Volz +2 more

Storage and distribution of quantum information are key elements of quantum information processing and future quantum communication networks. Here, using atom-photon entanglement as the main physical resource, we experimentally demonstrate the preparation of a distant atomic quantum memory. Applying a quantum teleportation protocol on a locally prepared state of a photonic qubit, we realized this so-called remote state preparation on a single, optically trapped 87Rb atom. We evaluated the performance of this scheme by the full tomography of the prepared atomic state, reaching an average fidelity of 82%.

Efficient Teleportation Between Remote Single-Atom Quantum Memories

Christian Nölleke, Andreas Neuzner, Andreas Reiserer +3 more

We demonstrate teleportation of quantum bits between two single atoms in distant laboratories. Using a time-resolved photonic Bell-state measurement, we achieve a teleportation fidelity of (88.0 ± 1.5)%, largely determined by our entanglement fidelity. The low photon collection efficiency in free space is overcome by trapping each atom in an optical cavity. The resulting success probability of 0.1% is almost 5 orders of magnitude larger than in previous experiments with remote material qubits. It is mainly limited by photon propagation and detection losses and can be enhanced with a cavity-based deterministic Bell-state measurement.

Efficient teleportation between remote single-atom quantum

Andreas Neuzner, Andreas Reiserer, Carolin Hahn +1 more

Institute of Quantum Optics — Teleportation is a prerequisite for the transfer of quantum information over large distances when the losses inherent in any quantum channel preclude a direct transfer. We demonstrate teleportation between two single-atom quantum memories in distant laboratories. By implementing a timeresolved photonic Bell-state measurement (BSM), which is based on two-photon quantum inference, we achieve a teleportation fidelity of 88 %, largely determined by our entanglement fidelity. The problem of limited photon collection efficiency in free space is overcome by trapping each atom in an optical cavity. Compared to previous experiments with remote single material qubits, our approach boosts the overall efficiency by almost five orders of magnitude. This results in success probabilities not predominantly limited by the photon generation and collection efficiency but by the transmission and detection losses inherent in the photonic BSM.

Quantum teleportation between remote atomic-ensemble quantum memories

Xiao‐Hui Bao, Xiao-Fan Xu, Che‐Ming Li +3 more

Quantum teleportation and quantum memory are two crucial elements for large-scale quantum networks. With the help of prior distributed entanglement as a "quantum channel," quantum teleportation provides an intriguing means to faithfully transfer quantum states among distant locations without actual transmission of the physical carriers [Bennett CH, et al. (1993) Phys Rev Lett 70(13):1895-1899]. Quantum memory enables controlled storage and retrieval of fast-flying photonic quantum bits with stationary matter systems, which is essential to achieve the scalability required for large-scale quantum networks. Combining these two capabilities, here we realize quantum teleportation between two remote atomic-ensemble quantum memory nodes, each composed of ∼10(8) rubidium atoms and connected by a 150-m optical fiber. The spin wave state of one atomic ensemble is mapped to a propagating photon and subjected to Bell state measurements with another single photon that is entangled with the spin wave state of the other ensemble. Two-photon detection events herald the success of teleportation with an average fidelity of 88(7)%. Besides its fundamental interest as a teleportation between two remote macroscopic objects, our technique may be useful for quantum information transfer between different nodes in quantum networks and distributed quantum computing.

Remote state preparation with quantum remote control

Peng Jia-yin, Ming-Qiang Bai, Zhi–Wen Mo

We put forward two novel and perfect protocols for preparing an arbitrary single–particle state and simultaneously implementing a rotation operator or an arbitrary unitary operator on that particle. There are schemes for either only teleporting particles or only remotely controlling quantun particles. If one has to remotely control a prepared quantum, then he/ she has to first do remote state preparation and then executes the remote control on the prepared quantum. Both operations ware done separately on two sets of entanglements. However, this intuitive solution is inefficient because many resources are wasted. Thus, we attempt to complete both operations by sharing one three–particle Greenberger–Horne– Zeilinger (GHZ) state. Comparing our two protocols with the corresponding intuitive solutions, respectively, the results show that our protocols are more efficient than the corresponding intuitive solutions. Only Pauli operators, controlled–NOT gate, Bell–state measurement, single–qubit measurement, Einstein–Podolsky–Rosen (EPR) state and GHZ state are used in our schemes, so these schemes are easily realized in physical experiment.
