Entanglement diversion and quantum teleportation of entangled coherent states

The proposals on entanglement diversion and quantum teleportation of entangled coherent states are presented. In these proposals, the entanglement between two coherent states, ｜α〉 and ｜-α〉, with the same amplitude but a phase difference of π is utilized as a quantum channel. The processes of the entanglement diversion and the teleportation are achieved by using the 50/50 symmctric beam splitters, the phase shifters and the photodetectors with the help of classical information.

Dynamical nonlocality of the entangled coherent state in the phase damping model

This paper studies the dynamics of nonlocality for a bosonic entangled coherent state in a phase damping model. The density operator of the system is solved by using a superoperator method. The dynamics of nonlocality for the bosonic entangled coherent state is uncovered by the Bell operator based on the pseudospin operator of a light field. The dynamics of the nonlocality for this state has also been studied by other Bell operators. The result of the numerical calculations of the Bell function shows that the quantum nonlocality heavily depends on the chosen Bell operator.

Controllable preparation of two-mode entangled coherent states in circuit QED

Although the multi-level structure of superconducting qubits may result in calculation errors, it can be rationally used to effectively improve the speed of gate operations. Utilizing a current-biased Josephson junction （A-type rf-SQUID） as a tunable coupler for superconducting transmission line resonators （TLRs）, under the large detuning condition, we demonstrate the controllable generation of entangled coherent states in circuit quantum electrodynamics （circuit QED）. The coupling between the TLRs and the qubit can be effectively regulated by an external bias current or coupling capacitor. Further investigations indicate that the maximum entangled state can be obtained through measuring the excited state of the superconducting qubits. Then, the influence of the TLR [tecay on the prepared entangled states is analyzed.

A new optical scheme for teleportation of entangled coherent state

We propose a nearly perfect optical scheme for the quantum teleportation of entangled coherent states using optical devices such as nonlinear Kerr media, beam splitters, phase shifters, and photon detectors. Different from those previous schemes, our scheme needs only ＂yes＂ or＂no＂ measurements of the photon number of the related modes, i.e. nonzero-and zero-photon measurements, while in previous schemes one has to exactly identify the even or odd parity character of the photon numbers detected by detectors.

Teleportation of tripartite entangled coherent states

This paper proposes a feasible scheme for the quantum teleportation of tripartite entangled coherent states by using linear optical devices such as beam splitters, phase shifters and photo detectors. The scheme is based on the bipartite maximally entangled coherent state and the tripartite entangled coherent state with bipartite maximal entanglement as quantum channels. It shows that when the mean number of photons is equal to 2, the total minimum of the average fidelity for an arbitrary tripartite entangled state is 1 - 0.67 ×10^-3.

Two-mode excited entangled coherent states and their entanglement properties

This paper introduces two types of two-mode excited entangled coherent states （TMEECSs） ψ±（（α,m,n））, studies their entanglement characteristics, and investigates the influence of photon excitations on quantum entanglement. It shows that for the state （ψ＋ （α, m, m）} the two-mode photon excitations affect seriously entanglement character while the state [ ψ-（α, m, m）） is always a maximally entangled state, and shows how such states can be produced by using cavity quantum electrodynamics and quantum measurements. It finds that the entanglement amount of the TMEECSs is larger than that of the single-mode excited entangled coherent states with the same photon excitation number.

Deterministic generation of entangled coherent states for two atomic samples

This paper proposes an efficient scheme for deterministic generation of entangled coherent states for two atomic samples. In the scheme two collections of atoms are trapped in an optical cavity and driven by a classical field. Under certain conditions the two atomic samples evolve from an coherent state to an entangled coherent state. During the interaction the cavity mode is always in the vacuum state and the atoms have no probability of being populated in the excited state. Thus, the scheme is insensitive to both the cavity decay and atomic spontaneous emission.

Quantum entanglement of an entangled coherent state: Role of particle losses

We analyze entanglement properties of entangled coherent state （ECS）, ｜α,0） 1,2 ＋｜0,α） 1,2, with and without photon losses. By separating the coherent state into ]a） = co｜0） ＋ √-Co2｜α）, we derive exact results of the logarithmic negativity EN, which quantifies the degree of entanglement between the two bosonic modes. Without particle losses, E~ = 1 for the NOON state; while for the ECS, E jr increases from 0 to 1 as ｜α｜-→∞. In the presence of photon losses, we find that the ECS with large enough photon number is more robust than that of the NOON state. An optimal ECS is obtained by maximizing E~ with respect to l a 12.

Generation of entangled coherent states for two cavity modes via resonant interaction with a V-type three-level atom

This paper proposes a scheme for the generation of entangled coherent states for two cavity modes. In the scheme a V-type three-level atom is sent through a two-mode cavity filled with a coherent field. After the atom cavity interaction and detection of the atomic state the cavity modes may evolve to a superposition of two-mode coherent states. As the scheme is based on resonant atom-cavity interaction, the required interaction time is short, which is important in view of the decoherence. Moreover, additional classical pulses are unnecessary before and after the atom-cavlty interaction.

Effects of photon addition on the quantum nonlocality of squeezed entangled coherent states

Effects of photon addition on the quantum nonlocality of squeezed entangled coherent states for Bell-inequality tests are studied theoretically. By utilizing the method of photon-parity measurement, it is found that photon addition can always increase the degrees of Bell violations within a certain parameter range. A possible scheme for generating photon-added squeezed entangled coherent states is proposed.

Measurement-based entanglement purification for entangled coherent states

The entangled coherent states(ECSs)have been widely used to realize quantum information processing tasks.However,the ECSs may suffer from photon loss and decoherence due to the inherent noise in quantum channel,which may degrade the fidelity of ECSs.To overcome these obstacles,we present a measurement-based entanglement purification protocol(MBEPP)for ECSs to distill some highquality ECSs from a large number of low-quality copies.We first show the principle of this MBEPP without considering the photon loss.After that,we prove that this MBEPP is feasible to correct the error resulted from the photon loss.Additionally,this MBEPP only requires to operate the Bell state measurement without performing local two-qubit gates on the noisy pairs and the purified high-quality ECSs can be preserved for other applications.This MBEPP may have application potential in the implementation of long-distance quantum communication.

Teleportation of a coherent state bipartite entangled via cavity QED

Based on the atom-cavity-field interaction, this paper proposes a scheme for the teleportation of a bipartite entangled coherent state （ECS） with high fidelity as long as │α│ is not too small. In this proposal, only four cavities and a three-level cascade atom are needed. The fidelity of the ECS is calculated and analysed in detail.

Generation of nonclassical states in a large detuning cavity

By using the theory of cavity QED, we study the system in which a two-level atom interacts with a cavity in the case of large detuning. Through the selective detecting of atomic state, Schrodinger cat states and entangled coherent states are easily generated. When the atom is driven by a weak classical field and the cavity field is in the Schrodinger cat state, we study the conditions of generating the Fock states and the maximal success probability. The maximal success probability in our scheme is larger than the previous one.
