Abstract

Based on a hybrid system consisting of a quantum dot coupled with a double-sided micropillar cavity, we investigate the implementation of an error-detected photonic quantum routing controlled by the other photon. The computational errors from unexpected experimental imperfections are heralded by single photon detections, resulting in a unit fidelity for the present scheme, so that this scheme is intrinsically robust. We discuss the performance of the scheme with currently achievable experimental parameters. Our results show that the present scheme is efficient. Furthermore, our scheme could provide a promising building block for quantum networks and distributed quantum information processing in the future.

Error-rejecting quantum computing with solid-state spins assisted by low- Q optical microcavities

Tao Li, Fu‐Guo Deng

We present an efficient proposal for error-rejecting quantum computing with quantum dots (QDs) embedded in single-sided optical microcavities based on the interface between the circularly polarized photon and QDs. An almost unity fidelity of the quantum entangling gate (EG) can be implemented with a detectable error that leads to a recycling EG procedure, which improves further the efficiency of our proposal along with the robustness to the errors involved in imperfect input-output processes. Meanwhile, we discuss the performance of our proposal for the EG on two solid-state spins with currently achieved experiment parameters, showing that it is feasible with current experimental technology. It provides a promising building block for solid-state quantum computing and quantum networks.

Error-detected N-photon cluster state generation based on the controlled-phase gate using a quantum dot in an optical microcavity

Lei-Xia Liang, Yanyan Zheng, Yuan‐Xia Zhang +1 more

We propose a scheme for error-detected generation of an N -photon cluster state with a quantum dot (QD) embedded in a single-sided optical microcavity (QD-cavity system). The basic structure of this scheme is an error-detected controlled-phase (C-phase) gate on the hybrid electron-photon system. In this scheme, the fidelity of N -photon cluster state generation can be reached unity even if low- Q cavity and cavity leakage are considered. By using error detecting, the generation of an N -photon cluster state can be performed by repeating until success, which also leads to a high success probability, compared with other schemes assisted by the QD-cavity system. The error-detected generation of an N -photon cluster state in the highly controllable way may benefit on the quantum network in the future.

Heralded Universal Quantum Gate and Entangler Assisted by Imperfect Double‐Sided Quantum‐Dot‐Microcavity Systems

Hai‐Rui Wei, Ning‐Yang Chen, Jizhen Liu

Abstract Efficient ways are presented to accomplish photonic controlled‐phase‐flip gate and entangler with the assistance of imperfect double‐sided quantum‐dot‐microcavity systems, but without ancillary qubits. Compact quantum circuits for implementing entanglement swapping between photon pairs and electron pairs are then designed. Unity fidelities of the schemes can be achieved, and physical imperfections in the construction processes are detected by single‐photon detectors. Also, the efficiencies of the schemes can be further improved by repeating the operation processes when the undesired performances are detected. The evaluations show that the schemes are possible with current experiment parameters.

Error-detected generation and complete analysis of hyperentangled Bell states for photons assisted by quantum-dot spins in double-sided optical microcavities

Guan-Yu Wang, Qing Ai, Bao-Cang Ren +2 more

We construct an error-detected block, assisted by the quantum-dot spins in double-sided optical microcavities. With this block, we propose three error-detected schemes for the deterministic generation, the complete analysis, and the complete nondestructive analysis of hyperentangled Bell states in both the polarization and spatial-mode degrees of freedom of two-photon systems. In these schemes, the errors can be detected, which can improve their fidelities largely, far different from other previous schemes assisted by the interaction between the photon and the QD-cavity system. Our scheme for the deterministic generation of hyperentangled two-photon systems can be performed by repeat until success. These features make our schemes more useful in high-capacity quantum communication with hyperentanglement in the future.

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.

Implementation of single-photon quantum routing and decoupling using a nitrogen-vacancy center and a whispering-gallery-mode resonator-waveguide system

Cong Cao, Yuwen Duan, Xi Chen +3 more

Quantum router is a key element needed for the construction of future complex quantum networks. However, quantum routing with photons, and its inverse, quantum decoupling, are difficult to implement as photons do not interact, or interact very weakly in nonlinear media. In this paper, we investigate the possibility of implementing photonic quantum routing based on effects in cavity quantum electrodynamics, and present a scheme for single-photon quantum routing controlled by the other photon using a hybrid system consisting of a single nitrogen-vacancy (NV) center coupled with a whispering-gallery-mode resonator-waveguide structure. Different from the cases in which classical information is used to control the path of quantum signals, both the control and signal photons are quantum in our implementation. Compared with the probabilistic quantum routing protocols based on linear optics, our scheme is deterministic and also scalable to multiple photons. We also present a scheme for single-photon quantum decoupling from an initial state with polarization and spatial-mode encoding, which can implement an inverse operation to the quantum routing. We discuss the feasibility of our schemes by considering current or near-future techniques, and show that both the schemes can operate effectively in the bad-cavity regime. We believe that the schemes could be key building blocks for future complex quantum networks and large-scale quantum information processing.
