Abstract

We demonstrate remote state preparation between three spatially distributed nodes over campus fiber. Utilizing entanglement resources established through flex-grid bandwidth techniques, we nonlocally prepare desired polarization qubit states on demand, showcasing the feasibility of this quantum protocol in a deployed network.

Remote state preparation: arbitrary remote control of photon polarizations for quantum communication

Nicholas A. Peters, Julio T. Barreiro, M. E. Goggin +2 more

By using a partial polarizer to apply a generalized polarization measurement to one photon of a polarization entangled pair, we remotely prepare single photons in arbitrary polarization qubits. Specifically, we are able to produce a range of states of any desired degree of mixedness or purity, over (and within) the entire Poincare sphere, with a typical fidelity exceeding 99.5%. Moreover, by using non-degenerate entangled pairs as a resource, we can prepare states in multiple wavelengths. Finally, we discuss the states remotely preparable given a particular two-qubit resource state.

Generalized Remote Preparation of Arbitrary m-qubit Entangled States via Genuine Entanglements

Dong Wang, Ross Hoehn, Liu Ye +1 more

Herein, we present a feasible, general protocol for quantum communication within a network via generalized remote preparation of an arbitrary m-qubit entangled state designed with genuine tripartite Greenberger–Horne–Zeilinger-type entangled resources. During the implementations, we construct novel collective unitary operations; these operations are tasked with performing the necessary phase transfers during remote state preparations. We have distilled our implementation methods into a five-step procedure, which can be used to faithfully recover the desired state during transfer. Compared to previous existing schemes, our methodology features a greatly increased success probability. After the consumption of auxiliary qubits and the performance of collective unitary operations, the probability of successful state transfer is increased four-fold and eight-fold for arbitrary two- and three-qubit entanglements when compared to other methods within the literature, respectively. We conclude this paper with a discussion of the presented scheme for state preparation, including: success probabilities, reducibility and generalizability.
