Quantum communication through a single-spin channel in the presence of an environment

Art Graeson Briones Dumigpe, Eric A. Galapon

Abstract

A quantum state represented by a qubit is to be transmitted to a distant spin through a one-channel spin chain obeying the isotropic XY Model with a transverse magnetic field. We study the effects of letting the channel be a qutrit instead of a qubit, and letting the channel be subjected to an intermediate environment, as per Lindblad dynamics. Nontrivial findings include increase in fidelity when a qutrit serves as the channel, and the interaction of the channel with the environment stabilizes communication at a time dictated by the strength of interaction.

Effect of Spin Dimensionality in the Fidelity of Spin Chain Quantum Communication

Art Graeson Briones Dumigpe, Eric A. Galapon

We consider an unmodulated linear spin chain composed of two qubits at the ends, which undergo nearest-neighbor interactions, with an arbitrary spin between them. The state of the qubit on one end is to be transmitted through the arbitrary spin and is received by the qubit on the other end with some fidelity. We look at the behavior of the average f idelity of state transfer through time as affected by the spin quantum number of the arbitrary spin in between the qubits. We f ind that the higher the spin quantum number becomes, the earlier it takes to achieve perfect or nearly perfect state transfer. Moreover, when the channel with arbitrary spin is subjected to environment interaction, results from the calculation of average fidelity suggest that increasing the spin quantum number of the channel provides a countermeasure to the effects of decoherence induced by the environment.

Transferring information through a mixed-five-spin chain channel

Hamid Arian Zad, Hossein Movahhedian

We initially introduce one-dimensional mixed-five-spin chain with Ising- XY model which includes mixture of spins-1/2 and spins-1. Here, it is considered that nearest spins (1,1/2) have Ising-type interaction and nearest spins (1/2,1/2) have both XY -type and Dzyaloshinskii–Moriya (DM) interactions together. Nearest spins (1,1) have XX Heisenberg interaction. This system is in the vicinity of an external homogeneous magnetic field B in thermal equilibrium state. We promote the quantum information transmitting protocol verified for a normal spin chain with simple model (refer to Rossini D, Giovannetti V and Fazio R 2007 Int. J. Quantum Infor. 5 439) (widely in reference: Giovannetti V and Fazio R 2005 Phys. Rev. A 71 032314) by means of considering the suggested mixed-five-spin chain as a quantum communication channel for transmitting both qubits and qutrits ideally. Hence, we investigate some useful quantities such as quantum capacity and quantum information transmission rate for the system. Finally, we conclude that, when the DM interaction between spins (1/2,1/2) increases the system is a more ideal channel for transmitting information.

Decoherence effects on the quantum spin channels

Jianming Cai, Zheng-Wei Zhou, Guang‐Can Guo

An open ended spin chain can serve as a quantum data bus for the coherent transfer of quantum state information. In this paper, we investigate the efficiency of such quantum spin channels which work in a decoherence environment. Our results show that the decoherence will significantly reduce the fidelity of quantum communication through the spin channels. Generally speaking, as the distance increases, the decoherence effects become more serious, which will put some constraints on the spin chains for long distance quantum state transfer.

Quantum Communication through an Unmodulated Spin Chain

Sougato Bose

We propose a scheme for using an unmodulated and unmeasured spin chain as a channel for short distance quantum communications. The state to be transmitted is placed on one spin of the chain and received later on a distant spin with some fidelity. We first obtain simple expressions for the fidelity of quantum state transfer and the amount of entanglement sharable between any two sites of an arbitrary Heisenberg ferromagnet using our scheme. We then apply this to the realizable case of an open ended chain with nearest neighbor interactions. The fidelity of quantum state transfer is obtained as an inverse discrete cosine transform and as a Bessel function series. We find that in a reasonable time, a qubit can be directly transmitted with better than classical fidelity across the full length of chains of up to 80 spins. Moreover, our channel allows distillable entanglement to be shared over arbitrary distances.

Dynamics of Entanglement and Measurement-Induced Disturbance for a Hybrid Qubit-Qutrit System Interacting with a Spin-Chain Environment: A Mean Field Approach

Mojtaba Jafarpour, Fazlollah Kazemi Hasanvand, Davood Afshar

Abstract We use the mean field method to study the dynamics of thermal entanglement and also the measurement-induced disturbance for a mixed qutrit-qubit system coupled to an environment, comprised of an Ising spin-chain with long range interactions, embedded in a transverse magnetic field. It is revealed that both quantities die down in long enough time and the fade out time is a decreasing function of temperature; however, the environmental magnetic field holds back the decoherence, and increases the fade out time; thus, providing a means to control and postpone the decoherence process. Moreover, it is observed that the discrepancy between the interaction strength of the qubit and the qutrit with the environment, substantially affects the decoherence behavior of the system.

Qubit Teleportation and Transfer across Antiferromagnetic Spin Chains

Lorenzo Campos Venuti, C. Degli Esposti Boschi, M. Roncaglia

We explore the capability of spin-1/2 chains to act as quantum channels for both teleportation and transfer of qubits. Exploiting the emergence of long-distance entanglement in low-dimensional systems [Phys. Rev. Lett. 96, 247206 (2006)10.1103/Phys.Rev.Lett.96, 247206(2006)], here we show how to obtain high communication fidelities between distant parties. An investigation of protocols of teleportation and state transfer is presented, in the realistic situation where temperature is included. Basing our setup on antiferromagnetic rotationally invariant systems, both protocols are represented by pure depolarizing channels. We propose a scheme where channel fidelity close to 1 can be achieved on very long chains at moderately small temperature.
