Abstract

We make use of the intrinsic noiseless and lossless aspect of an electron source in a 2DEG system to implement a new test of Bell’s inequality. The generated entanglement can be tested by two-particle interferometry. Preparation and detection schemes of two complete sets of Bell states are given. A novel type of Bell’s inequality is then derived in terms of noise correlation measurements. The characteristics of the electron source are essential to exhibit a violation. This electron system could close the detection eciency loophole. ? 2000 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

Proposal for a Loophole-Free Bell Test with Electron Spins of Donors in Silicon

Fang-Yu Hong, Shi‐Jie Xiong, Yang Xiang +1 more

So far, all experimental tests of Bell inequalities which must be satisfied by all local realistic hidden-variable theories and are violated by quantum mechanical predictions have left at least one loophole open. We propose a feasible setup allowing for a loophole-free test of the Bell inequalities. Two electron spin qubits of donors31P in a nanoscale silicon host in different cavities 300 m apart are entangled through a bright coherent light and postselections using homodyne measurements. The electron spins are then read out randomly and independently by Alice and Bob, respectively, with unity efficiency in less than 0.7 µs by using optically induced spin to charge transduction detected by radio-frequency single electron transistor. A violation of Bell inequality larger than 37% and 18% is achievable provided that the detection accuracy is 0.99 and 0.95, respectively.

Detection-Loophole-Free Test of Quantum Nonlocality, and Applications

Bradley Christensen, Kevin T. McCusker, Joseph B. Altepeter +11 more

We present a source of entangled photons that violates a Bell inequality free of the "fair-sampling" assumption, by over 7 standard deviations. This violation is the first reported experiment with photons to close the detection loophole, and we demonstrate enough "efficiency" overhead to eventually perform a fully loophole-free test of local realism. The entanglement quality is verified by maximally violating additional Bell tests, testing the upper limit of quantum correlations. Finally, we use the source to generate "device-independent" private quantum random numbers at rates over 4 orders of magnitude beyond previous experiments.

Towards a Loophole-Free Test of Bell's Inequality with Entangled Pairs of Neutral Atoms

Wenjamin Rosenfeld, Markus Weber, Jürgen Volz +5 more

Experimental tests of Bell's inequality allow to distinguish quantum mechanics from local hidden variable theories. Such tests are performed by measuring correlations of two entangled particles (e.g. polarization of photons or spins of atoms). In order to constitute conclusive evidence, two conditions have to be satisfied. First, strict separation of the measurement events in the sense of special relativity is required ("locality loophole"). Second, almost all entangled pairs have to be detected (for particles in a maximally entangled state the required detector efficiency is 82.8%), which is hard to achieve experimentally ("detection loophole"). By using the recently demonstrated entanglement between single trapped atoms and single photons it becomes possible to entangle two atoms at a large distance via entanglement swapping. Combining the high detection efficiency achieved with atoms with the space-like separation of the atomic state detection events, both loopholes can be closed within the same experiment. In this paper we present estimations based on current experimental achievements which show that such an experiment is feasible in future.

Orbital Entanglement and Violation of Bell Inequalities in Mesoscopic Conductors

Peter Samuelsson, Eugene V. Sukhorukov, Μ. Büttiker

We propose a spin-independent scheme to generate and detect two-particle entanglement in a mesoscopic normal-superconductor system. A superconductor, weakly coupled to the normal conductor, generates an orbitally entangled state by injecting pairs of electrons into different leads of the normal conductor. The entanglement is detected via violation of a Bell inequality, formulated in terms of zero-frequency current cross correlators. It is shown that the Bell inequality can be violated for arbitrary strong dephasing in the normal conductor.

Verifying Atom Entanglement Schemes by Testing Bell's Inequality

Dimitris G. Angelakis, Almut Beige, P. L. Knight +2 more

Recent experiments to test Bell's inequality using entangled photons and ions aimed at tests of basic quantum mechanical principles. Interesting results have been obtained and many loopholes could be closed. In this paper we want to point out that tests of Bell's inequality also play an important role in verifying atom entanglement schemes. We describe as an example a scheme to prepare arbitrary entangled states of N two-level atoms using a leaky optical cavity and a scheme to entangle atoms inside a photonic crystal. During the state preparation no photons are emitted and observing a violation of Bell's inequality is the only way to test whether a scheme works with a high precision or not.
