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.

Deformed photon-added entangled squeezed vacuum and one-photon states: Entanglement, polarization, and nonclassical properties

In this paper, after a brief review on the entangled squeezed states, we produce a new class of the continuous-variable- type entangled states, namely, deformed photon-added entangled squeezed states. These states are obtained via the iterated action of the f-deformed creation operator A = f（n）a＋ on the entangled squeezed states. In the continuation, by studying the criteria such as the degree of entanglement, quantum polarization as well as sub-Poissonian photon statistics, the two- mode correlation function, one-mode and two-mode squeezing, we investigate the nonclassical behaviors of the introduced states in detail by choosing a particular f-deformation function. It is revealed that the above-mentioned physical properties can be affected and so may be tuned by justifying the excitation number, after choosing a nonlinearity function. Finally, to generate the introduced states, we propose a theoretical scheme using the nonlinear Jaynes-Cummings model.

Entanglement of Para-Bose Entangled Coherent States and Probabilistic Teleportation

We study the entanglement of the para-Bose entangled coherent states by adopting the entanglement of formation and propose a scheme of probabilistic teleportation via para-Bose entangled coherent states. It is found that the mean fidelity of the scheme increases with the decrease of the para-Bose parameter ho in the case of non-maximally entangled para-Bose entangled coherent states.

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.

Quantum secure direct communication with quantum encryption based on pure entangled states

This paper presents a scheme for quantum secure direct communication with quantum encryption. The two authorized users use repeatedly a sequence of the pure entangled pairs （quantum key） shared for encrypting and decrypting the secret message carried by the travelling photons directly. For checking eavesdropping, the two parties perform the single-photon measurements on some decoy particles before each round. This scheme has the advantage that the pure entangled quantum signal source is feasible at present and any eavesdropper cannot steal the message.

Controlled Teleportation of an Arbitrary Multi-Qudit State in a General Form with d-Dimensional Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger States

A general scheme for controlled teleportation of an arbitrary multi-qudit state with d-dimensional Greenberger- Horne--Zeilinger （GHZ） states is proposed. For an arbitrary m-qudit state, the sender Alice performs m generalized Bell-state projective measurements on her 2m qudits and the controllers need only take some single-particle measurements. The receiver Charlie can reconstruct the unknown m-qudit state by performing some single-qudit unitary operations on her particles if she cooperates with all the controllers. As the quantum channel is a sequence of maximally entangled GHZ states, the intrinsic efticiency for qudits in this scheme approaches 100% in principle.

Controlled Secure Direct Communication Protocol via the Three-Qubit Partially Entangled Set of States

In this paper,we first re-examine the previous protocol of controlled quantum secure direct communication of Zhang et al.’s scheme,which was found insecure under two kinds of attacks,fake entangled particles attack and disentanglement attack.Then,by changing the party of the preparation of cluster states and using unitary operations,we present an improved protocol which can avoid these two kinds of attacks.Moreover,the protocol is proposed using the three-qubit partially entangled set of states.It is more efficient by only using three particles rather than four or even more to transmit one bit secret information.Given our using state is much easier to prepare for multiqubit states and our protocol needs less measurement resource,it makes this protocol more convenient from an applied point of view.

Controlled Secure Quantum Dialogue Using a Pure Entangled GHZ States

We present a controlled secure quantum dialogue protocol using a non-maximally （pure） entangled Greenberger-Horne-Zeibinger （GHZ） states at first, and then discuss the requirements for a real quantum dialogue. We show that the authorized two users can exchange their secret messages after purifying the non-maximally entangled GHZ states quantum channel unconditionally securely and simultaneously under the control of a third party.

Schemes for Splitting Quantum Information with Four-Particle Genuine Entangled States

We propose two schemes for splitting single- and two-qubit states by using four-particle genuine entangled state as the quantum channel. After the sender performs Bell-basis （or three-partite GHZ- basis） measurements on her particles, and the cooperators operate single-particle measurements on their particles, the state receiver can reconstruct the original state of the sender by applying the appropriate unitary operation. In particular, in the scheme for splitting two-qubit state, the receiver needs to introduce an auxiliary particle and carries out a C-NOT operation.

Secret sharing of quantum information via entanglement swapping

Based on entanglement swapping, a scheme for the secret sharing of an arbitrary two-particle entangled state is proposed. If the controllers do not co-operate with the eavesdropper, the eavesdropper＇s successful probability decreases with the number of the controllers increasing. In addition, only the Bell-state measurements are required to realize the secret sharing scheme.

Remote Preparation of Three-Particle GHZ Class States

We propose a remote state preparation （RSP） scheme of three-particle Greenberger Horne-Zeilinger （GHZ） class states, where quantum channels are composed of two maximally entangled states. With the aid of forward classical bits, the preparation of the original state can be successfully realized with the probability 1/2, the necessary classical communication cost is 0.5 bit on average. If the state to be prepared belongs to some special states, the success probability of preparation can achieve 1 after consuming one extra bit on average. We then generalize this scheme to the case that the quantum channels consist of two non-maximally entangled states.

A simple scheme to generate χ-type four-charge entangled states in circuit QED

We propose a simple scheme to generate x-type four-charge entangled states by using SQUID-based charge qubits capacitively coupled to a transmission line resonator （TLR）. The coupling between the superconducting qubit and the TLR can be effectively controlled by properly adjusting the control parameters of the charge qubit. The experimental feasibility of our scheme is also shown.

Deterministic Quantum Key Distribution Using Two Non-orthogonal Entangled States

A deterministic quantum key distribution scheme using two non-orthogonal entangled states is proposed. In the proposed scheme, communicators share key information by exchanging one travelling photon with two random and secret polarization angles. The security of the distributed key is guaranteed by three checking phases in three-way channel and the communicators＇ secret polarization angles.

Preparation of Entangled Atomic States Through Resonant Atom-Field Interaction

A scheme is proposed for the generation of two-atom maximally entangled states and multi-atom maximally entangled states of W class. The scheme is based on the simultaneous resonant interaction of atoms with a single-mode cavity field. It does not require accurate adjustment of the interaction time. The time needed to complete the generation does not increase with the number of the atom.

Quantum Secure Direct Communication Using Six-Particle Maximally Entangled States and Teleportation

The sender shares six-particle maximally entangled states as quantum channel with the receiver. If the quantum channel is secure, the sender performs projective measurements and tells the measurement outcome to the receiver. The receiver performs the unitary transformations and makes projective measurements on his particles to obtain the secret information. Using teleportation, the transmission of three-qubit secret information can be completed in each quantum channel

Generation of Multi-mode Entangled Coherent States for N Trapped Ions in Strong-Excitation Regime

We propose a scheme to generate entangled coherent states for the vibrational modes of N trapped ions.In the scheme the first ion is sequentially excited by two travelling wave laser fields tuned to the ion transition. The scheme works in the strong-excitation regime, which is of experimental importance in view of decoherence.

Wigner Function：from Ensemble Average of Density Operator to Its Matrix Element in Entangled Pure States

We show that the Wigner function (an ensemble average of the density operator ρ, Δ is the Wigner operator) can be expressed as a matrix element of ρ in the entangled pure states. In doing so, converting from quantum master equations to time-evolution equation of the Wigner functions seems direct and concise. The entangled states are defined in the enlarged Fock space with a fictitious freedom.

Preparation and control of entangled states in the two-mode coherent fields interacting with a moving atom via two-photon process

We investigate the preparation and the control of entangled states in a system with the two-mode coherent fields interacting with a moving two-level atom via the two-photon transition. We discuss entanglement properties between the two-mode coherent fields and a moving two-level atom by using the quantum reduced entropy, and those between the two-mode coherent fields by using the quantum relative entropy. In addition, we examine the influences of the atomic motion and field-mode structure parameter p on the quantum entanglement of the system. Our results show that the period and the duration of the prepared maximal atom-field entangled states and the frequency of maximal two-mode field entangled states can be controlled, and that a sustained entangled state of the two-mode field, which is independent of atomic motion and the evolution time, can be obtained, by choosing appropriately the parameters of atomic motion, field-mode structure, initial state and interaction time of the system.

Generation of multipartite entangled states by cavity QED

We propose the methods of generating multipartite entanglement by considering the interaction of a system of N two-level atoms in M cavities of high quality factor with a strong classical driving field. It is shown that, with the cavity detuning, the applied driving field detuning and vacuum Rabi coupling, we can produce an entangled coherent state in two single-mode cavities and generate the entangled coherent cluster states in two bimodal vacuum cavities. Tuning these parameters also allows us to acquire the anti-Jaynes-Cummings （AJC） interaction, with which we can generate the maximally two-photon entangled states, and the two-atom and the two-photon entangled cluster states.

Controlled Teleportation of Two-Partic le Entanglement via a Cluster State

In order to teleport an unknown two-par-ticle entangled state via a cluster state, a controlled teleportation schelre is proposed. It is shown that an unknown two-particle entangled state can be successfully transmitted from the sender Alice to the receiver Bob with the help of the supervisor Charlie via the only one four-particle cluster state. The receiver can reconstruct the teleported state according to the lmasurement results of the sender and supervisor. Quantum Controlled-NOT （CNOT） gate and POVM are used, which have been accom-plished in a quantum experiment, so it is believed that this scheme will be realized by experirnent. By analysis, the success probability of the proposed scheme reaches 1.0.
