Abstract

Generation of entanglement between spatially separated macroscopic systems enables quantum networks and fundamental tests of quantum theory. Here, we propose a scheme to generate a long-range entangled state between two macroscopic spheres. The hybrid system under consideration consists of two massive ferromagnetic spheres and a superconducting transmon qubit, which are both coupled to a microwave cavity array. When the qubit or magnon frequency lies outside of the frequency band of the cavity array, the qubit or magnon mode can seed a tunable, localized cavity mode with an exponentially decaying envelope around its position. This effective cavity mediates the long-range qubit-magnon and magnon-magnon interactions in a coherent way, enabling the long-distance magnon-magnon entanglement via the superconducting qubit.

Macroscopic nonlocal entanglement generation of two hybrid massive magnon systems

Da-Wei Luo, Xiao‐Feng Qian, Ting Yu

We investigate dynamical generation of macroscopic nonlocal entanglements between two remote massive magnon-superconducting-circuit hybrid systems. Two fiber-coupled microwave cavities are employed to serve as an interaction channel connecting two sets of macroscopic hybrid units each containing a magnon sphere and a superconducting-circuit qubit. The structure of the hybrid system allows the existence of an optimal fiber coupling strength that requests the shortest amount of time to generate a systematic maximal entanglement, which is solely dependent on the couplings of the channel with both magnon and superconducting circuit. Our theoretical results are shown to be within the scope of specific parameters that can be easily achieved with current technology. The noise effects on the implementation of systems are also treated in a general environment suggesting the robustness of our results. Our discrete-variable qubit-like entanglement theory of magnons may lead to direct applications in various quantum information tasks.

Entangling magnon and superconducting qubit by using a two-mode squeezed-vacuum microwave field

Chen-Xi Ning, Miao Yin

We propose a scheme to generate entanglement between magnon and superconducting qubit. The macroscopic yttrium–iron–garnet sphere and superconducting qubit are installed in two spatially separated cavities, which are directly driven by a two-mode squeezed-vacuum microwave field. The magnon and cavity 1 are coupled via magnetic dipole interaction and the superconducting qubit and cavity 2 are coupled via electric dipole interaction. We theoretically demonstrate that the magnon–qubit steady-state entanglement can be created by transferring quantum correlations of the two-mode squeezed-vacuum driving field via cavity–magnon and cavity–qubit beam-splitter interactions. The transfer is highly efficient, and the entanglement is robust against temperature in the optimal parameter regimes. We also deduce a new, to the best of our knowledge, mathematical method to analyze the dynamics of the magnon–qubit entanglement and some significant results are obtained. Our scheme can be implemented with experimentally feasible parameters and may provide guidance in designing hybrid quantum networks.

Shortcut-based generation of transmon-magnon entangled states

Run‐Ying Yan, Zhi‐Bo Feng

Abstract Optimized generation of entangled states between solid-state qubits is of fundamental significance to quantum information science and technology. Here, we develop an effective scheme to fast and robustly create the entangled states in a hybrid system containing a superconducting transmon qubit and a spin magnon of yttrium iron garnet. The transmon qubit and the magnon system are coupled via a microwave cavity field. Within the framework of invariant-based shortcuts to adiabaticity, the transmon-magnon entangled states can be rapidly induced by engineering the Rabi couplings between the cavity mode and transmon (magnon) with constant amplitudes. Compared with a non-shortcut counterpart, the shortcut-based operations of interest not only considerably shorten the generation time, but also greatly mitigate the decoherence effects. Furthermore, the fast dynamics is well insensitive to the control deviation of Rabi couplings. Thus our approach could lead to advances in information processing and state engineering with composite systems.

Distant entanglement generation and controllable information transfer via magnon–waveguide systems

Jianyu Liu, Jing-Wen Jin, Xiu-Ming Zhang +4 more

The generation of entanglement and information distribution among macroscopic systems which are spatially separated are of paramount importance in the realm of quantum networks and quantum communication. In this paper, we propose a scheme that enables the preparation of long-distance entanglement between two magnons and controllable information transfer from a giant atom to either magnon, where the two magnons can be positioned symmetrically or asymmetrically in relation to a giant atom, and all of the magnons and the atom are coupled to a microwave cavity-array waveguide. By considering significant frequency detuning, we can virtually excite photons and establish an indirect interaction between the giant atom and the two magnons. Through the modulation of atom-waveguide coupling rates, we can not only evenly transfer atomic excitation to both magnons, thereby generating maximally entangled states, but also selectively transmit the atomic state to a single magnon. It is our hope that our proposed scheme will prove valuable in the field of quantum communications.

Nonlocal magnon entanglement generation in coupled hybrid cavity systems

Da-Wei Luo, Xiao‐Feng Qian, Ting Yu

We investigate dynamical generation of macroscopic nonlocal entanglements between two remote massive magnon-superconducting-circuit hybrid systems. Two fiber-coupled microwave cavities are employed to serve as an interaction channel connecting two sets of macroscopic hybrid units, each containing a magnon (hosted by an yttrium-iron-garnet sphere) and a superconducting-circuit qubit. Surprisingly, it is found that stronger coupling does not necessarily mean faster entanglement generation. The proposed hybrid system allows the existence of an optimal fiber coupling strength that requires the shortest amount of time to generate a systematic maximal entanglement. Our theoretical results are shown to be within the scope of specific parameters that can be achieved with current technology. The noise effects on the implementation of systems are also treated in a general environment, suggesting the robustness of entanglement generation. Our discrete-variable qubit-like entanglement theory of magnons may lead to direct applications in various quantum information tasks.

Coherent coupling between ferromagnetic magnon and superconducting qubit

Yutaka Tabuchi, Seiichiro Ishino, Atsushi Noguchi +4 more

Rigidity of an ordered phase in condensed matter results in collective excitation modes spatially extending in macroscopic dimensions. Magnon is a quantum of an elementary excitation in the ordered spin system, such as ferromagnet. Being low dissipative, dynamics of magnons in ferromagnetic insulators has been extensively studied and widely applied for decades in the contexts of ferromagnetic resonance, and more recently of Bose-Einstein condensation as well as spintronics. Moreover, towards hybrid systems for quantum memories and transducers, coupling of magnons and microwave photons in a resonator have been investigated. However, quantum-state manipulation at the single-magnon level has remained elusive because of the lack of anharmonic element in the system. Here we demonstrate coherent coupling between a magnon excitation in a millimetre-sized ferromagnetic sphere and a superconducting qubit, where the interaction is mediated by the virtual photon excitation in a microwave cavity. We obtain the coupling strength far exceeding the damping rates, thus bringing the hybrid system into the strong coupling regime. Furthermore, we find a tunable magnon-qubit coupling scheme utilising a parametric drive with a microwave. Our approach provides a versatile tool for quantum control and measurement of the magnon excitations and thus opens a new discipline of quantum magnonics.
