Based on a recent proposal by Wang et al. [Opt. Express 24, 28444(2016)], we design two independent schemes for error-heralded deterministic generation and self-assisted complete HBSA of two-photon systems entangled in both polarization and spatial-mode degrees of freedom(DOFs).Unlike previous programs, we firstly propose an error-heralded block with a singly charged quantum dot inside a single-sided optical microcavity, with which errors due to imperfect interactions between photons and quantum dot systems can be heralded.The error-heralded block, ensures that the fidelity of the two schemes for hyperentangled-Bell-state generation and complete HBSA reaches unity. Moreover, hyperentanglement makes it possible to analyze the polarization state with the assistance of the measured spatial-mode state. The self-assisted mechanism of HBSA greatly simplifies the analytical process and significantly relaxes the requirements of nonlinearities. Therefore, these schemes promise to be implemented more easily in experiments,taking a step closer to long-distance high-capacity quantum communication.展开更多

In this contribution,thiophene-fused cyclopentadienyl scandium complexes 1-3 were successfully synthesized. Combined with alkylaluminium and organoborate, these complexes showed extremely low activity and no selectivity for 1-hexene polymerization. Surprisingly,highly stereo-selective coordination polymerization of unprotected polar 4-methylthio-1-butene has been achieved in high activity for the first time under the same polymerization conditions. High-molecular-weight(M_n=110×10~3) and perfectly syndiotactic(rrrr>99%) poly(4-methylthio-1-butene)(P(MTB)) was afforded. Thus the methylthio-group-assisted mechanism that the unmasked methylthio group promoted the polymerization through σ-π chelation to the active scandium center together with the vinyl group was proposed. Moreover, the methylsulfonyl functionalized syndiotactic poly(1-butene) was also easily prepared by the oxidation of P(MTB). These results provided a new route for the synthesis of functionalized stereo-regular polyolefins.展开更多
