Direct implementation of a scalable non-local multi-qubit controlled phase gate via optical fibres and adiabatic passage

This paper presents a direct implementation scheme of the non-local multi-qubit controlled phase gate by using optical fibres and adiabatic passage. The smaller operation number for implementing the multi-qubit controlled phase gate and needlessness for addressing individually save physical resource and lower the difficulties of experiment. Mean- while, the scheme is immune from some decoherence effects such as the atomic spontaneous emission and fibre loss. In principle, it is scalable.

A scheme for conditional quantum phase gate via bimodal cavity and a∧-type three-level atom

We propose a scheme to implement a two-qubit conditional quantum phase gate for the intracavity field via a single three-level ∧-type atom driven by two modes in a high-Q cavity. The quantum inforraation is encoded on the Fock states of the bimodal cavity. The gate＇s averaged fidelity is expected to reach 99.8%.

Generation of an N -qubit phase gate via atom–cavity nonidentical coupling

A scheme for approximate generation of an N-qubit phase gate is proposed in cavity QED based on nonidentical coupling between the atoms and the cavity. The atoms interact with a highly detuned cavity-field mode, but quantum information does not transfer between the atoms and cavity field, and thus the cavity decay is negligible. The gate time does not rise with an increase in the number of qubits. With the choice of a smaller odd number l （related to atom-cavity coupling constants）, the phase gate can be generated with a higher fidelity and a higher success probability in a shorter time （the gate time is much shorter than the atomic radiative lifetime and photon lifetime）. When the number of qubits N exceeds certain small values, the fidelity and success probability rise slowly with an increase in the number of qubits N. When N→∞, the fidelity and success probability infinitely approach 1, but never exceed 1.

A scheme for the implementation of unconventional geometric phase gates with trapped ions

We propose a scheme for the realization of unconventional geometric two-qubit phase gates with two identical two-level ions, In the present scheme, the two ions are simultaneously illuminated by a standing-wave laser pulse with its pulse frequency being tuned to the ionic transition. The gate operation time can be much shorter, making the system robust against decoherence. In addition, we choose the appropriate experimental parameters to construct the geometric phase gate in one step, and thus avoid implementing the pure geometric single qubit operation.

Implementation of quantum phase gate between two atoms via Rydberg antiblockade and adiabatic passage

Combining adiabatic passage and Rydberg antiblockade, we propose a scheme to implement a two-qubit phase gate between two Rydberg atoms. Detuning parameters between frequencies of atomic transitions and those of the corresponding driving lasers are carefully chosen to offset the blockade effect of two Rydberg atoms, so that an effective Hamiltonian,representing a single-photon detuning L-type three-level system and concluding the quantum state of two Rydberg atoms excited simultaneously, is obtained. The adiabatic-passage technique, based on the effective Hamiltonian, is adopted to implement a two-atom phase gate by using two time-dependent Rabi frequencies. Numerical simulations indicate that a high-fidelity two-qubit p-phase gate is constructed and its operation time does not have to be controlled accurately. Besides,owing to the long coherence time of the Rydberg state, the phase gate is robust against atomic spontaneous emission.

A high precision time-to-digital converter based on multi-phase clock implemented within Field-Programmable-Gate-Array

In this paper, the design of a coarse-fine interpolation Time-to-Digital Converter (TDC) is implemented in an ALTERA’s Cyclone FPGA. The carry-select chain performs as the tapped delay line. The Logic Array Block (LAB) having a propagation delay of 165 ps in the chain is synthesized as delay cell. Coarse counters triggered by the global clock count the more significant bits of the time data. This clock is also fed through the delay line, and LABs create the copies. The replicas are latched by the tested event signal, and the less significant bits are encoded from the latched binary bits. Single-shot resolution of the TDC can be 60 ps. The worst Differential Nonlinearity (DNL) is about 0.2 Least Significant Bit (LSB, 165 ps in this TDC module), and the Integral Nonlinearity (INL) is 0.6 LSB. In comparison with other architectures using the synchronous global clock to sample the taps, this architecture consumed less electric power and logic cells, and is more stable.

Implementing remote controlled-NOT gates and entanglement swapping via geometric phase gates in ion-trap systems

We propose a scheme for the implementation of remote controlled-NOT gates and entanglement swapping via geometric phase gates in ion-trap systems. The proposed scheme uses the two ground states of the A-type ions as memory instead of the vibrational mode. And the system is robust against the spontaneous radiation and the dephasing.

Implementation of quantum controlled phase gate and preparation of multiparticle entanglement in cavity QED

Schemes are presented for realizing quantum controlled phase gate and preparing an N-qubit W-like state, which are based on the large-detuned interaction among three-state atoms, dual-mode cavity and a classical pulse. In particular, a class of W states that can be used for perfect teleportation and superdense coding is generated by only one step. Compared with the previous schemes, cavity decay is largely suppressed because the cavity is only virtually excited and always in the vacuum state and the atomic spontaneous emission is strongly restrained due to a large atom-field detuning.

Resonant interaction scheme for GHZ state preparation and quantum phase gate with superconducting qubits in a cavity

A scheme is proposed to generate GHZ state and realize quantum phase gate for superconducting qubits placed in a microwave cavity. This scheme uses resonant interaction between the qubits and the cavity mode, so that the interaction time is short, which is important in view of decoherence. In particular, the phase gate can be realized simply with a single interaction between the qubits and the cavity mode. With cavity decay being considered, the fidelity and success probability are both very close to unity.

Generation of unconventional geometric phase gates in ion trap-optical cavity system by squeezed operators

Based on squeezed operators this paper has implemented an ideal unconventional geometric quantum gate （GQG） in ion trap-optical cavity system by radiating the trapped ions with the cavity field of frequency ωc and an external laser field of frequency ωL. It can ensure that the gate time is shorter than the coherence time for qubits and the decay time of the optical cavity by appropriately tuning the ionic transition frequency ω0, the frequencies of the cavity mode ωc and the vibrational mode v. It has also realized the unconventional GQG under the influence of the cavity decay based on the squeezed-like operators and found that the present scheme works well for the smaller cavity decay by investigating the corresponding fidelity and success probability.

Robust scheme for implemention of quantum phase gates for two atoms

We propose a scheme for implementing conditional quantum phase gates for two four-state atoms trapped in a cavity. The two ground states of the atoms are coupled through two Raman processes induced by the cavity mode and two classical fields. Under certain conditions nonresonant Raman processes lead to two-atom coupling and can be used to produce conditional phase gates. The scheme is insensitive to cavity decay, thermal photons, and atomic spontaneous emission. The scheme does not require individual addressing of the atoms.

One-step implementation of an N-qubit quantum phase gate through a double Raman passage

We propose a scheme for controllably implementing an N-qubit phase gate by one step within a ground-state subspace of N three-state atoms trapped in a cavity through a double Raman passage. We can extend our scheme to the realisation of an arbitrary N-qubit phase gate by appropriately adjusting coupling strengths and detunings between atoms and external driving fields. The advantage of this one-step scheme is its robustness against decoherence.

A scheme of quantum phase gate for trapped ion

We propose a scheme to implement two-qubit controlled quantum phase gate（CQPG） via a single trapped two-level ion located in the standing wave field of a quantum cavlty, in which the trap works beyond the Lamb--Dicke limit. When the light field is resonant with the atomic transition ｜g） →← ｜e） of the ion located at the antinode of the standing wave, we can perform CQPG between the internal and external states of the trapped ion; while the frequency of the light field is chosen to be resonant with the first red sideband of the collective vibrational mode of the ion located at the node of the standing wave, we can perform CQPG between the cavity mode and the collective vibrational mode of the trapped ion. Neither the Lamb--Dicke approximation nor the assistant classical laser is needed. Also we can generate a GHZ state if assisted with a classical laser.

Creating unconventional geometric phase gate using squeeze-like operator assisted by strong driving field

Based on the idea that a squeezing process can be thought of as a total cumulative effect of a large number of tiny squeezing processes, we define a squeeze-like operator with a time-dependent squeeze parameter. Applying this operator to and combining with a system which includes a two-photon interaction between two atoms and an initial vacuum cavity field, and resorting to a resonant strong driving classical field, we obtain an unconventional geometric phase gate with a shorter gating time.

Unconventional geometric phase gate and multiqubit entanglement for hot ions with a frequency-modulated field

We present an alternative scheme for implementing the unconventional geometric two-qubit phase gate and prepar- ing multiqubit entanglement by using a frequency-modulated laser field to simultaneously illuminate all ions. Selecting the index of modulation yields selective mechanisms for coupling and decoupling between the internal and the external states of the ions. By the selective mechanisms, we obtain the unconventional geometric two-qubit phase gate, multiparticle Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger states and highly entangled cluster states. Our scheme is insensitive to the thermal motion of the ions.

Implementation of a nonlocal N-qubit conditional phase gate using the nitrogen–vacancy center and microtoroidal resonator coupled systems

Implementation of a nonlocal multi-qubit conditional phase gate is an essential requirement in some quantum infor- mation processing （QIP） tasks. Recently, a novel solid-state cavity quantum electrodynamics （QED） system, in which the nitrogen-vacancy （NV） center in diamond is coupled to a microtoroidal resonator （MTR）, has been proposed as a poten- tial system for hybrid quantum information and computing. By virtue of such systems, we present a scheme to realize a nonlocal N-qubit conditional phase gate directly. Our scheme employs a cavity input-output process and single-photon interference, without the use of any auxiliary entanglement pair or classical communication. Considering the currently available technologies, our scheme might be quite useful among different nodes in quantum networks for large-scaled QIP.

Signatures for Coexistence of Monoclinic and Hexagonal Phases in GaTe Nanoflakes

The burgeoning two-dimensional(2D)layered materials provide a powerful strategy to realize efficient light-emitting devices.Among them,gallium telluride(Ga Te)nanoflakes,showing strong photoluminescence(PL)emission from multilayer to bulk crystal,relax the stringent fabrication requirements of nanodevices.However,detailed knowledge on the optical properties of Ga Te varies as layer thickness is still missing.Here we perform thickness-dependent PL and Raman spectra,as well as temperature-dependent PL spectra of Ga Te nanoflakes.Spectral analysis reveals a spectroscopic signature for the coexistence of both the monoclinic and hexagonal phases in Ga Te nanoflakes.To understand the experimental results,we propose a crystal structure where the hexagonal phase is on the top and bottom of nanoflakes while the monoclinic phase is in the middle of the nanoflakes.On the basis of temperature-dependent PL spectra,the optical gap of the hexagonal phase is determined to be 1.849 eV,which can only survive under temperature higher than 200 K with the increasing phonon population.Furthermore,the strength of exciton-phonon interaction of the hexagonal phase is estimated to be 1.24 me V/K.Our results prove the coexistence of dual crystalline phases in multilayer Ga Te nanoflakes,which may provoke further exploration of phase transformation in Ga Te materials,as well as new applications in 2D light-emitting diodes and heterostructure-based optoelectronics.

Efficient Atomic One-Qubit Phase Gate Realized by a Cavity QED and Identical Atoms System

We present a scheme to implement a one-qubit phase gate with a two-level atom crossing an optical cavity in which some identical atoms are trapped. One can conveniently acquire an arbitrary phase shift of the gate by properly choosing the number of atoms trapped in the cavity and the velocity of the atom crossing the cavity. The present scheme provides a very simple and efficient way for implementing one-qubit phase gate.

Quantum Phase Gates for Trapped Ions via Adiabatic Passage

We propose a scheme to produce quantum phase gates for trapped ions. Taking advantage of the adiabatic evolution, the operation is insensitive to small fluctuations of experimental parameters. Furthermore, the spontaneous emission is suppressed since the ions have no probability of being populated in the electronic excited states.
