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 scheme to generate polarization-entangled multiphoton Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger states with weak cross-Kerr nonlinearity based on controlled bus rotation and subsequent homodyne measurement. Our method is simple in operation and has high success probabilities with near perfect fidelities in an ideal case.

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.

A nearly deterministic scheme for generation of multiphoton GHZ states with weak cross-Kerr nonlinearity

Yi Wang, Liu Ye, Bao‐Long Fang

We propose a scheme to generate polarization-entangled multiphoton Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger (GHZ) states based on weak cross-Kerr nonlinearity and subsequent homodyne measurement. It can also be generalized to produce maximally N -qubit entangled states. The success probabilities of our schemes are almost equal to 1.

Generation of four-photon polarization-entangled cluster states via cross-Kerr nonlinearity

We propose a scheme for generating four-photon polarization-entangled cluster states based on the cross-Kerr nonlinear interaction between field-modes. Compared with other schemes, our scheme introduces the idea of parity gate and uses the non-destructive measurement method based on homodyne detection, which is easier to implement in experiment.

Generating a four-photon polarization-entangled cluster state with homodyne measurement via cross-Kerr nonlinearity

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.
