Entanglement COncentration of Entangled Squeezed Vacuum States
蔡新华, 匡乐满
Abstract
By analysing the action of a beamsplitter on squeezed vacuum states(SVSs),it is found that,if the two input light beams of the beamsplitter have the same squeezing amplitude and phase,the output state is a two-mode SVS,If the two input light beams of the beamsplitter have the same squeezing amplitude but a phase difference of π,the output state is a direct porduct state of two single-mode SVS.Based on these results,we propose to distill a maximally entangled SVS from a partially entangled SVS by using a 50/50 beamsplitter and photodetectors.
