without background subtraction. We further optimize the tradeoff between the photonic generation rate and the memory-photon entanglement fidelity for the case of polarization photonic qubits by tailoring the spatial mode of the collected light.

NEW ASPECTS OF THE PURITY AND INFORMATION OF AN ENTANGLED QUBIT PAIR

NASSER METWALLY

In this article, we investigate the purity dynamics of entangled 2 two-level atoms interacting with a single quantized electromagnetic field. We show that the purity of the qubit pairs depends on the initial state of the atomic system. It is found that the superposition case is the best choice to generate entangled states with high purity and hence high entanglement. It is clear that the purity of one qubit can be purified at the expense of the other pair through the phenomena of purity swapping. The mean photon number plays an important role in increasing the purity. The robustness of the quantum channel is investigated in the presence of individual attacks, where we study the separability of these channels and evaluate its fidelity. Finally, we use the partial entangled states as quantum channels to perform the original coding protocol. We find that Bob can obtain the coded information with reasonable percentage. The inequality of security is tested, where we determine the interval of times in which Alice and Bob can communicate securely. These intervals depend on the type of error and the structure of the initial atomic system.

Versatile Quantum State Generation and Manipulation in a Programmable Silicon-Photonic 4-Qubit System with High-Fidelity and Purity

Jong-Moo Lee, Jeongho Bang, Jiho Park +5 more

We present a programmable Silicon Photonic 4-qubit integrated circuit for the generation and manipulation of diverse quantum states. The Silicon Photonic chip integrates photon-pair sources, pump-removing filters, wavelength-division-multiplexing (WDM) filters, Mach-Zehnder Interferometer (MZI) switches, and single-qubit arbitrary gates, enabling versatile state preparation and tomography. We measure Hong-Ou-Mandel (HOM) interference with an impressive 98% visibility using 4-photon coincidence, laying the foundation for high-purity qubits. Our analysis involves estimating the fidelity and purity of distinct quantum states through maximum-likelihood estimation (MLE) applied to tomographic measurements. In our experimental results, we showcase the following achievements: a heralded single qubit achieving 98.2% fidelity and 98.3% purity, a Bell state reaching 95.2% fidelity and 94.8% purity, and a 4-qubit system with two simultaneous Bell states exhibiting 87.4% fidelity and 84.6% purity. Finally, a 4-qubit Greenberger–Horne–Zeilinger (GHZ) state demonstrates 85.4 % fidelity and 81.7% purity. Additionally, we certify the entanglement of the 4-photon GHZ state through Bell's inequality violations and a negative entanglement witness.
