Engineering quantum hyperentangled states in atomic systems

Abstract

Abstract Hyperentangled states have boosted many quantum informatics tasks tremendously due to their high information content per quantum entity. Until now, however, the engineering and manipulation of such states were limited to photonic systems only. In present article, we propose generating atomic hyperentanglement involving atomic internal states as well as atomic external momenta states. Hypersuperposition, hyperentangled cluster, Bell and Greenberger–Horne–Zeilinger states are engineered deterministically through resonant and off-resonant Bragg diffraction of neutral two-level atoms. Based on the characteristic parameters of the atomic Bragg diffraction, such as comparatively large interaction times and spatially well-separated outputs, such decoherence resistant states are expected to exhibit good overall fidelities and offer the evident benefits of full controllability, along with extremely high detection efficiency, over the counterpart photonic states comprised entirely of flying qubits.

Hyperentanglement teleportation through external momenta states

Liaqat Ali, Rameez‐ul‐Islam, Manzoor Ikram +2 more

Abstract The conventional teleportation protocol requires a state entangled in only one degree of freedom (DOF), while hyperteleportation requires more than single DOF to complete the task. The hyperteleportation schematics are demonstrated only for the photonic systems, where in the present paper we extend the idea to a hyperteleportation protocol involving the atomic internal and external states. The protocol is deterministically engineered through resonant and off-resonant atomic Bragg diffraction involving two-level neutral atoms under standard cavity-QED working environment. Moreover, the longer interaction time Bragg’s regime with well separated transverse momenta states as an output of the neutral atoms guarantees the high enough engineering fidelities with reduced decoherence rates. The experimental parameters for the demonstration of the proposed scheme are also elucidated briefly describing the optimistic feasibility for the experimental execution of the proposed schematics.

Engineering quantum networks through Bragg diffracted hyperentangled atoms

Saad Mohammed Anis, Tasawar Abbas, Muhammad Imran +1 more

Hyperentangled states are vitally important for resource economy as they have exponential encoding capabilities per quantum entity. Apart from photonic hyperentanglements, only few proposals exist based on atomic systems. The present article discusses the schematics to generate hyperentangled atomic quantum networks in both internal states and external atomic momenta via cavity QED setup using the Atomic Bragg Diffraction technique. Various graph states forming quantum networks are engineered through hyperentangled correlations encompassing quantized external momenta and internal states of the two-level atoms. First one is a star shaped graph state which is attached to n receivers. The second one is a hybrid of the star and ring graph states, taking three star networks and joining them using dispersive atom-field interactions. Experimental feasibility has also been briefly elaborated under contemporary cavity QED research scenario.

Engineering of hyperentangled complex quantum networks

Murad Ahmad, Liaqat Ali, Muhammad Imran +5 more

Abstract We propose a novel scheme to engineer the atomic hyperentangled cluster and ring graph states invoking cavity-QED technique for applicative relevance to quantum biology and quantum communications utilizing the complex quantum networks. These states are engineered using both external quantized momenta states and energy levels of neutral atoms under off-resonant and resonant Atomic Bragg Diffraction (ABD) technique. The study of dynamical capacity and potential efficiency have certainly enhanced the range of usefulness of these states. In order to assess the operational behavior of such states when subjected to a realistic noise environment has also been simulated, demonstrating long enough sustainability of the proposed states. Moreover, experimental feasibility of the proposed scheme has also been elucidated under the prevailing cavity-QED research scenario.

Entanglement swapping using hyperentangled pairs of two‐level neutral atoms

Syed Sajal Hasan, Saad Mohammed Anis, Muhammad Imran +3 more

Abstract Hyperentangled swapping is a quantum communication technique that involves the exchange of hyperentangled states, which are quantum states entangled in multiple degrees of freedom, to enable secure and efficient quantum information transfer. In this paper, we demonstrate schematics for the hyperentanglement swapping between separate pairs of neutral atoms through the mathematical framework of atomic Bragg diffraction, which is efficient and resistant to decoherence, yielding deterministic results with superior overall fidelity. The utilised cavities are in a superposition state and interact with the incoming atoms off‐resonantly. Quantum information carried by the cavities is swapped through resonant interactions with two‐level auxiliary atoms. We also discuss entanglement swapping under a delayed‐choice scenario and provide a schematic generalisation covering multiple‐qubit scenarios. Finally, we introduce specific experimental parameters to demonstrate the experimental feasibility of the scheme.

Efficient generation of entangled multiphoton graph states from a single atom

Philip Thomas, Leonardo Ruscio, Olivier Morin +1 more

Abstract The central technological appeal of quantum science resides in exploiting quantum effects, such as entanglement, for a variety of applications, including computing, communication and sensing 1 . The overarching challenge in these fields is to address, control and protect systems of many qubits against decoherence 2 . Against this backdrop, optical photons, naturally robust and easy to manipulate, represent ideal qubit carriers. However, the most successful technique so far for creating photonic entanglement 3 is inherently probabilistic and, therefore, subject to severe scalability limitations. Here we report the implementation of a deterministic protocol 4–6 for the creation of photonic entanglement with a single memory atom in a cavity 7 . We interleave controlled single-photon emissions with tailored atomic qubit rotations to efficiently grow Greenberger–Horne–Zeilinger (GHZ) states 8 of up to 14 photons and linear cluster states 9 of up to 12 photons with a fidelity lower bounded by 76(6)% and 56(4)%, respectively. Thanks to a source-to-detection efficiency of 43.18(7)% per photon, we measure these large states about once every minute, which is orders of magnitude faster than in any previous experiment 3,10–13 . In the future, this rate could be increased even further, the scheme could be extended to two atoms in a cavity 14,15 or several sources could be quantum mechanically coupled 16 , to generate higher-dimensional cluster states 17 . Overcoming the limitations encountered by probabilistic schemes for photonic entanglement generation, our results may offer a way towards scalable measurement-based quantum computation 18,19 and communication 20,21 .

Exploring wave–particle behaviors of entangled Bragg diffracted neutral atoms

Izma Qureshi, Tasawar Abbas, Muhammad Imran +1 more

In this paper, we theoretically study the concept of the wave–particle duality of two entangled neutral Bragg diffracted atoms. This is an extension of a recent study where the same idea was proposed in the photonic setup [Man et al., Sci. Rep. 7, 42539 (2017)] using two independent Mach–Zehnder interferometers. Now, we propose a similar scheme using the cavity-QED based setup, which comprises two independent atomic de Broglie Mach–Zehnder–Bragg interferometers, a source cavity that generates two external momenta state entangled atoms. Once the atoms pass through the source cavity initially prepared in the superposition of zero and one photon, they emerge out of the cavity in entangled momenta state such that if one atom is transmitted to the upper interferometer, then the second atom must traverse the lower interferometer, and vice versa. The final atomic de Broglie beam splitter at the top interferometer is prepared in the superposition of zero and one photon and facilitates observing the wave or particle aspect in a single setting. This entire setup functions in off-resonant Bragg diffraction and the proposed schematics are shown to be experimentally feasible under contemporary research scenarios.
