Information extraction and quantum state distortions in continuous variable quantum teleportation

Hofmann, H F, Ide, T, Kobayashi, T, Furusawa, A

Published Oct 22, 2001• 0 citations

Abstract

We analyze the loss of fidelity in continuous variable teleportation due to non-maximal entanglement. It is shown that the quantum state distortions correspond to the measurement back-action of a field amplitude measurement. Results for coherent states and for photon number states are presented.

Fidelity and information in the quantum teleportation of continuous variables

Holger Friedrich Hofmann, Toshiki Ide, Takayoshi Kobayashi +1 more

Ideally, quantum teleportation should transfer a quantum state without distortion and without providing any information about that state. However, quantum teleportation of continuous electromagnetic-field variables introduces additional noise, limiting the fidelity of the quantum-state transfer. In this article, the operator describing the quantum-state transfer is derived. The transfer operator modifies the probability amplitudes of the quantum state in a shifted photon-number basis by enhancing low photon numbers and suppressing high photon numbers. This modification of the statistical weight corresponds to a measurement of finite resolution performed on the original quantum state. The limited fidelity of quantum teleportation is thus shown to be a direct consequence of the information obtained in the measurement.

Entanglement degradation in continuous-variable quantum teleportation

Dirk‐Gunnar Welsch, Stefan Scheel, Aleksej V. Chizhov

The influence of losses in the transmission of continuous-variable entangled light through linear devices such as optical fibers is studied, with special emphasis on Gaussian states. Upper bounds on entanglement and the distance to the set of separable Gaussian states are calculated. Compared with the distance measure, the bounds can substantially overestimate the entanglement and thus do not show the drastic decrease of entanglement with increasing mean photon number, as does the distance measure. In particular, it shows that losses give rise to entanglement saturation, which principally limits the amount of information that can be transferred quantum mechanically in continuous-variable teleportation. Even for an initially infinitely squeezed two-mode squeezed vacuum, high-fidelity teleportation is only possible over distances that are much smaller than the absorption lengths.

Transfer of squeezed coherent state using quantum teleportation of continuous variables

Aoi Fujimoto, Hiroyuki Ichihara

Quantum entanglement states in continuous-variable quantum teleportation can transfer any quantum state. However, errors occur in the quantum states before and after the transfer in scientific experiments because generating a perfect quantum entanglement is physically unattainable. This paper limits the quantum states transferred to squeezed coherent states and introduces a controller to classical information transfer in continuous-variable quantum teleportation to improve transfer accuracy. Under such a setup, we derived the optimal controller that maximizes the fidelity, independent of the measurement results and the value of the displacement of the squeezed coherent state.
