Generation of large scale GHZ states with the interactions of photons and quantum-dot spins

Abstract

Abstract We present a deterministic scheme for generating large scale GHZ states in a cavity-quantum dot system. A singly charged quantum dot is embedded in a double-sided optical microcavity with partially reflective top and bottom mirrors. The GHZ-type Bell spin state can be created and two n -spin GHZ states can be perfectly fused to a 2 n -spin GHZ state with the help of n ancilla single-photon pulses. The implementation of the current scheme only depends on the photon detection and its need not to operate multi-qubit gates and multi-qubit measurements. Discussions about the effect of the cavity loss, side leakage and exciton cavity coupling strength for the fidelity of generated states show that the fidelity can remain high enough by controlling system parameters. So the current scheme is simple and feasible in experiment.

Remote quantum state preparation and transfer with the interactions of photons and quantum-dot spins

Xiaojie Yuan, Ping Dong, Min Wang +2 more

In this paper, we propose a scheme of remote quantum state preparation and transfer that use a double-sided cavity system, in which a singly charged quantum dot is embedded in a double-sided optical microcavity with partially reflective top and bottom mirrors. The implementation of the scheme mainly depends on the interaction between the input single-photon pulse and the spins of electrons in the coupling system. Discussions about the effect of the cavity loss, side leakage and exciton–cavity coupling strength for the fidelity of generated states show that the fidelity can remain high enough by controlling these parameters. Therefore, the current scheme is feasible in the experiment.

Effective scheme for preparation of a spin-qubit Greenberger–Horne–Zeilinger state and W state in a quantum-dot-microcavity system

Yi‐Hao Kang, Yan Xia, Pei-Min Lu

We propose a scheme for the preparation of a spin-qubit Greenberger–Horne–Zeilinger (GHZ) state and W state by using quantum dots (QDs) in double-sided optical microcavities with the help of polarized photons. The spin-selective photon reflection from the cavity provides us a perfect way to achieve the scheme by adding some simple linear optical elements and conventional photon detectors. A numerical simulation demonstrates that a perfect scheme of the GHZ state and W state generation can be achieved in one step, and high fidelities can be realized when the side leakage and cavity loss are low, which is feasible in the weak coupling regime. Therefore, our scheme might contribute to quantum communication, quantum teleportation, and some other fields in quantum information processing.

Scalable photonic quantum computing assisted by quantum-dot spin in double-sided optical microcavity

Hai‐Rui Wei, Fu‐Guo Deng

We investigate the possibility of achieving scalable photonic quantum computing by the giant optical circular birefringence induced by a quantum-dot spin in a double-sided optical microcavity as a result of cavity quantum electrodynamics. We construct a deterministic controlled-not gate on two photonic qubits by two single-photon input-output processes and the readout on an electron-medium spin confined in an optical resonant microcavity. This idea could be applied to multi-qubit gates on photonic qubits and we give the quantum circuit for a three-photon Toffoli gate. High fidelities and high efficiencies could be achieved when the side leakage to the cavity loss rate is low. It is worth pointing out that our devices work in both the strong and the weak coupling regimes.

Deterministic CNOT Gate on electron qubits using quantum-dot spins in double-sided optical microcavities

Hai‐Rui Wei, Fu‐Guo Deng

We propose a scheme to construct a deterministic CNOT gate on static electron-spin qubits, allowing for deterministic scalable quantum computing in solid-state systems.The excess electron confined in a charged quantum dot inside a double-sided optical microcavity represents the qubit, and the single photons play a medium role. Moreover, our device can work in both the weak coupling and the strong coupling regimes, but high fidelities are achieved only when the ratio of the side leakage to the cavity loss is low. Finally, we assess the feasibility of this device and show it can be implemented with current technology.

Deterministic generation of large-scale photonic GHZ states utilizing spin echo in a solid-state quantum light source

Zu-En Su, Dan Cogan, Oded Kenneth +3 more

Quantum technologies witness rapid contemporary developments transitioning from abstract scientific ideas and fundamental demonstrations, into systems of sufficient quality and scale, enabling real applications. Photonic quantum technologies are playing a pivotal role in these developments, since photons are robust, easily controlled, detect and measured, thus qualify as flying carriers of quantum information and entanglement distributers. The efforts to develop photonic quantum technologies benefit from the maturity of the classical optical technologies. It was shown that even a source of heralded three entangled photons is sufficient for building large scale quantum computers using otherwise classical optical elements. Here, we demonstrate a novel semiconductor quantum dot based device, which deterministically generate at GHz rates, indistinguishable single photons in a robust Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger (GHZ) state of more than a dozen photons. The device utilizes novel natural spin echo concept, provided by the opposite precession directions of the negative and positive carriers' spins in the excited and ground levels of the periodically excited dot, respectively. The excitation rate is finely tuned to nullify the phase acquired by both spins' precession. Our record long GHZ state producing device can yet be feasibly improved to provide higher-rate, brighter and more robust deterministic GHZ source, significantly reducing the overhead requirements for photonic quantum technologies.

Effective W-state fusion strategies for electronic and photonic qubits via the quantum-dot-microcavity coupled system

Xue Yan Han, Shi Hu, Qi Guo +3 more

We propose effective fusion schemes for stationary electronic W state and flying photonic W state, respectively, by using the quantum-dot-microcavity coupled system. The present schemes can fuse a n-qubit W state and a m-qubit W state to a (m + n - 1)-qubit W state, that is, these schemes can be used to not only create large W state with small ones, but also to prepare 3-qubit W states with Bell states. The schemes are based on the optical selection rules and the transmission and reflection rules of the cavity and can be achieved with high probability. We evaluate the effect of experimental imperfections and the feasibility of the schemes, which shows that the present schemes can be realized with high fidelity in both the weak coupling and the strong coupling regimes. These schemes may be meaningful for the large-scale solid-state-based quantum computation and the photon-qubit-based quantum communication.
