Decoherence-free manipulation of photonic memories for quantum computation

Abstract

We present a protocol to construct an arbitrary quantum circuit. The quantum bits (qubits) are encoded in polarization states of single photons. They are stored in spatially separated dense media deposed in an optical cavity. Specific sequences of pulses address individually the storage media to encode the qubits and to implement a universal set of gates. The proposed protocol is decoherence-free in the sense that spontaneous emission and cavity damping are avoided. We discuss a coupling scheme for experimental implementation in neon atoms.

Atomic Quantum Memory for Photonic Qubits via Scattering in Cavity QED

Yamada, Hiroyuki, Katsuji Yamamoto

We investigate a scheme of atomic quantum memory to store photonic qubits in cavity QED. This is motivated on the recent observation that the quantum-state swapping between a single-photon pulse and a Lambda-type atom trapped in a cavity is ideally realized via scattering for some specific case in the strong coupling cavity regime [T. W. Chen, C. K. Law, and P. T. Leung, Phys. Rev. A 69, 063810 (2004)]. We derive a simple formula for calculating the fidelity of this atom-photon swapping for quantum memory. We further propose a feasible method which implements conditionally the quantum memory operation with the fidelity of almost unity even if the atom-photon coupling is not so strong. This method can also be applied to store a photonic entanglement in spatially separated atomic quantum memories.

Feasible schemes for quantum swap gates of optical qubits via cavity QED

Deng-Yu Zhang, Shi-Qing Tang, Xin-Wen Wang +2 more

Feasible schemes for implementing quantum swap gates of both coherent-state qubits and photonic qubits are proposed using a Λ-type atomic ensemble trapped in a bimodal optical cavity. In both protocols, the decoherence from atomic spontaneous emission is negligible due to the fact that the excited states of the atoms are adiabatically eliminated under large detuning condition and the swap gates can be created in a single step. In our schemes, the required atoms—cavity interaction time decreases with the increase of the number of atoms, which is very important in view of decoherence. The experimental feasibilities of the schemes are also discussed.

Quantum computation with coupled quantum dots embedded in optical microcavities

Xin-Qi Li, YiJing Yan

Based on an idea that spatial separation of charge states can enhance quantum coherence, we propose a scheme for a quantum computation with the quantum bit (qubit) constructed from two coupled quantum dots. Quantum information is stored in the electron-hole pair state with the electron and hole located in different dots, which enables the qubit state to be very long-lived. Universal quantum gates involving any pair of qubits are realized by coupling the quantum dots through the cavity photon which is a hopeful candidate for the transfer of long-range information. The operation analysis is carried out by estimating the gate time versus the decoherence time.

Implementation scheme of controlled SWAP gates for quantum fingerprinting and photonic quantum computation

B. Wang, Luming Duan

We propose a scheme to implement quantum controlled SWAP gates by directing single-photon pulses to a two-sided cavity with a single trapped atom. The resultant gates can be used to realize quantum fingerprinting and universal photonic quantum computation. We present a theoretical model for our scheme and analyze its performance under practical noise, including spontaneous emission and randomness of atom-cavity coupling strength. It is shown that our scheme should be robust against practical imperfections in current cavity QED experiment setup.

Universal non-adiabatic holonomic quantum computation in decoherence-free subspaces with quantum dots inside a cavity

Jun Liu, Ping Dong, Jian Zhou +1 more

Abstract A scheme for implementing the non-adiabatic holonomic quantum computation in decoherence-free subspaces is proposed with the interactions between a microcavity and quantum dots. A universal set of quantum gates can be constructed on the encoded logical qubits with high fidelities. The current scheme can suppress both local and collective noises, which is very important for achieving universal quantum computation. Discussions about the gate fidelities with the experimental parameters show that our schemes can be implemented in current experimental technology. Therefore, our scenario offers a method for universal and robust solid-state quantum computation.

Linear Optical Quantum Computing in a Single Spatial Mode

Peter C. Humphreys, Benjamin J. Metcalf, Justin B. Spring +5 more

We present a scheme for linear optical quantum computing using time-bin-encoded qubits in a single spatial mode. We show methods for single-qubit operations and heralded controlled-phase (cphase) gates, providing a sufficient set of operations for universal quantum computing with the Knill-Laflamme-Milburn [Nature (London) 409, 46 (2001)] scheme. Our protocol is suited to currently available photonic devices and ideally allows arbitrary numbers of qubits to be encoded in the same spatial mode, demonstrating the potential for time-frequency modes to dramatically increase the quantum information capacity of fixed spatial resources. As a test of our scheme, we demonstrate the first entirely single spatial mode implementation of a two-qubit quantum gate and show its operation with an average fidelity of 0.84±0.07.
