Abstract

Abstract A protocol to realize complete and nondestructive atomic Greenberger–Horne–Zeilinger (GHZ)‐state analysis in cavity quantum electrodynamics (QED) systems is presented. In this protocol, the three information‐carrier atoms and the three auxiliary atoms are trapped in six separated cavities, respectively. After ten‐step operations, the information for distinguishing the eight different GHZ states of the three information‐carrier atoms is encoded on the auxiliary atoms. Thus, by means of detecting the auxiliary atoms, complete and nondestructive GHZ‐state analysis with high success probability is realized. Moreover, the driving pluses of operations are designed as a simple superposition of Gaussian or trigonometric functions by using the invariant‐based inverse engineering. Therefore, the protocol can be realized experimentally and applied in some quantum information tasks based on complete GHZ‐state analysis with less physical entanglement resource.

Complete and Nondestructive Atomic Bell‐State Analysis Assisted by Inverse Engineering

Ri‐Hua Zheng, Yi‐Hao Kang, Zhi‐Cheng Shi +1 more

Abstract A protocol for complete and nondestructive atomic Bell‐state analysis by using inverse engineering is presented. The setups for the Bell‐state analysis contain four atoms trapped in four separated cavities, respectively. The laser pulses designed by inverse engineering help in the manipulation of the transitions of atoms in a robust manner. By using the protocol, the information for distinguishing four Bell states of two information‐carrying atoms is encoded on two auxiliary atoms. Therefore, the four Bell states can be distinguished without being destroyed by detecting the states of the two auxiliary atoms. Moreover, as shown by the numerical simulations, the protocol has high successful probabilities to distinguish four Bell states when decoherence is considered. Thus, the protocol may provide some helpful perspectives for the quantum information tasks based on Bell states.

Complete polarized photons Bell-states and Greenberger–Horne–Zeilinger-states analysis assisted by atoms

Yan Xia, Yi‐Hao Kang, Pei-Min Lu

We propose an efficient protocol for complete polarized photons Bell-states and Greenberger–Horne–Zeilinger (GHZ)-states analysis assisted by atoms. With the help of assistant atoms and some simple liner optical elements, the analysis of both polarization Bell states and GHZ states can be performed completely. In our protocol, the assistant atoms are trapped in cavity quantum electronic dynamics (QED), which is feasible with current experimental technology. Moreover, the polarized photons entangled states will not be destroyed in our protocol. Therefore, our scheme might contribute to the quantum communication, quantum computation, and some other fields in quantum information processing.

Nondestructive N-atom Greenberger–Horne–Zeilinger state analyzer via the cavity input–output process

Long Zhu, Hong‐Fu Wang, Shi‐Lei Su +3 more

We propose a deterministic scheme to realize N-atom Greenberger–Horne–Zeilinger (GHZ) state analyzer based on the cavity input–output process. In the scheme, we construct a two-qubit parity analyzer and a GHZ-state phase analyzer and show that all the N-atom GHZ states can be completely identified in a nondestructive way by combining these two kinds of analyzers. The fidelities of our analyzers are also calculated, which show that our scheme has a high performance in theory. The scheme opens promising perspectives for achieving efficient large-scale quantum communication and quantum information processing networks.

Complete analysis for arbitrary concatenated Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger state assisted with photonic Faraday rotation

Zhou, Lan, Shi‐Pu Gu, Xingfu Wang +1 more

The concatenated Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger (C-GHZ) state has great potential application in the future quantum network, for it is robust to the decoherence in a noisy environment. In the paper, we propose a complete C-GHZ state analysis protocol with the help of some auxiliary single atoms trapped in the low-quality cavities. In the protocol, we essentially make the parity check for the photonic states based on the photonic Faraday rotation effect, and complete the analysis task combined with the Hadamard operation and single qubit measurement. The success probability of our protocol can reach 100\% in principle, and the number of physical qubit encoded in each logic qubit does not affect the analysis. Our analysis protocol may have its practical application in future long-distance quantum communication.

Direct conversion of a three-atom W state to a Greenberger–Horne–Zeilinger state in spatially separated cavities

Guoyuan Wang, Dongyang Wang, Wen‐Xue Cui +3 more

Abstract State conversion between the Greenberger–Horne–Zeilinger (GHZ) state and the W state is a challenging open problem because these states cannot be converted to each other by just local operations and classical communication. Here we propose a cavity quantum electrodynamics method based on interference of polarized photons emitted by the atoms trapped in spatially separated optical cavities that can convert a three-atom W state to a GHZ state. We calculate the success probability and fidelity of the converted GHZ state when the cavity decay, spontaneous atomic decay and photon leakage of the cavities are taken into account for a practical system, which shows that the proposed scheme is feasible and within the reach of current experimental technology.

Complete hyperentangled Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger state analysis for polarization and time-bin hyperentanglement

Zhi Zeng

We present an efficient scheme for the complete analysis of hyperentangled Greenberger–Horne–Zeilinger (GHZ) state in polarization and time-bin degrees of freedom with two steps. Firstly, the polarization GHZ state is distinguished completely and nondestructively, resorting to the controlled phase flip (CPF) gate constructed by the cavity-assisted interaction. Subsequently, the time-bin GHZ state is analyzed by using the preserved polarization entanglement. With the help of CPF gate and self-assisted mechanism, our scheme can be directly generalized to the complete N-photon hyperentangled GHZ state analysis, and it may have potential applications in the hyperentanglement-based quantum communication.
