Abstract

In this paper, we propose a scheme for rapidly implementing a controlled- π phase gate by combining the Lewis–Riesenfeld invariant and quantum Zeno dynamics. We demonstrate the adiabatic shortcut by using Rydberg superatoms in distant-atom–cavity systems. Furthermore, we utilize the controlled- π phase gate to achieve the preparation of N -particle cluster states. Additionally, the impact of decoherence and operational imperfections is discussed. Numerical simulation demonstrates that the proposed scheme has high fidelities and robustness against both cavity leakage and atomic spontaneous emission.

Abstract Quantum phase gates serve as core fundamental resources for quantum information processing, and their preparation effciency and structural stability directly determine the overall performance of quantum computing and quantum communication. The traditional adiabatic preparation method is prone to the influence of decoherence due to its excessive time consumption, while superadiabatic shortcut technology can significantly shorten the evolution time while retaining the advantages of the adiabatic process. In this paper, we propose a scheme for rapidly implementing a quantum phase gate by combining superadiabatic scheme and quantum Zeno dynamics to construct shortcuts to adiabatic passage. We demonstrate the superadiabatic shortcut by using Rydberg superatoms in distant-atom-cavity system. Furthermore, we utilize the controlled π phase gate to achieve the preparation of N-particles cluster states. Additionally, the impact of decoherence and operational imperfections are discussed. Numerical simulation demonstrates the proposed scheme has high fidelities and robustness against both cavity leakage and atomic spontaneous emission.

Fast and noise-resistant implementation of quantum phase gates and creation of quantum entangled states

Ye‐Hong Chen, Yan Xia, Qing-Qin Chen +1 more

The ``Lewis-Riesenfeld phases'' which play a crucial role in constructing shortcuts to adiabaticity may be a resource for the implementation of quantum phase gates. By combining ``Lewis-Riesenfeld invariants'' with ``quantum Zeno dynamics,'' we propose an effective scheme of rapidly implementing $\ensuremath{\pi}$ phase gates via constructing shortcuts to adiabatic passage in a two-distant-atom-cavity system. The influence of various decoherence processes such as spontaneous emission and photon loss on the fidelity is discussed. It is noted that this scheme is insensitive to both error sources. Additionally, a creation of $N$-atom cluster states is put forward as a typical example of the applications of the fast and noise-resistant phase gates. The study results show that the shortcuts idea is not only applicable in other logic gates with different systems, but also propagable for many quantum information tasks.

Rapid Preparation of Rydberg Superatomic Entangled States Using Lewis–Riesenfeld Invariants Method

Ying‐Li Liu, Wen‐Xue Cui, Shou Zhang +1 more

ABSTRACT Bell state and W state are not just common entangled states, they are foundational resources in the field of quantum information. In this scheme, a Rydberg atomic ensemble with a four‐level “”‐shaped structure is confined within a Rydberg blockade sphere to form a superatom. Exploiting the unique advantages of the weak cavity field limit, the quantum information can be encoded with reliability on the superatom's effective energy levels. By integrating the methods of quantum Zeno dynamics (QZD) and Lewis‐Riesenfeld (LR) invariants, the Bell state, three‐qubit W state, and ‐qubit W state are prepared rapidly. Furthermore, the influences exerted by decoherence factors are also factored in. Numerical simulations confirm that the present scheme not only achieves high fidelities but also exhibits robustness against these decoherence factors. Finally, we further investigate the influences of parameter fluctuations on fidelities, and the results demonstrate that the fidelities of the proposed scheme remain robust against parameter fluctuations.

Rapid preparation of Rydberg superatom W state using superadiabatic techniques

YANG Liping, WANG Jiping, Li DONG +2 more

The W state, as a robust multipartite entangled state, plays an important role in quantum information processing, quantum network construction and quantum computing. In this paper, a three-level ladder-type Rydberg atomic system is placed into a Rydberg blocking sphere to form a superatom. Each superatom has many collective states including just one Rydberg excitation constrained by the Rydberg blockade effect. In the weak cavity field limit, at most one atom can be pumped into excited state, then we can describe the superatom by using a three-level ladder-type system. Afterwards we encode quantum information about the effective energy levels of Rydberg superatoms and propose a fast scheme for preparing the Rydberg superatom W state based on the superadiabatic iterative technique and quantum Zeno dynamics.This scheme can be achieved in only one step by controlling the laser pulses. In this scheme, the superatoms are trapped in spatially separated cavities connected by optical fibers, thereby greatly improving the feasibility of experimental manipulation. A remarkable feature is that it does not need to accurately control experimental parameters and interaction time. Meanwhile, the form of counterdiabatic Hamiltonian is the same as that of the effective Hamiltonian. Through numerical simulations, the fidelity of this scheme can reach 99.94%. Even considering decoherence effects, including atomic spontaneous emission and photon leakage, the fidelity can still exceed 97.5%, thereby further demonstrating the strong robustness of the solution. In addition, the Rabi frequency can be characterized as a linear superposition of Gaussian functions, and this representation significantly alleviates the complexity encountered in practical experiments. Futhermore, we also analyze the influence of parameter fluctuations on the fidelity, and the results show that this scheme is robust against parameter fluctuations. Finally, the present scheme is extended to the case of N Rydberg superatoms, which shows the scalability of our scheme.
