Counterfactual quantum-information transfer without transmitting any physical particles
We demonstrate quantum information can be transferred between two distant participants without any physical particles traveling between them. The key procedure of the counterfactual scheme is to entangle two nonlocal qubits with each other without interaction, so the scheme can also be used to generate nonlocal entanglement counterfactually. We here illustrate the scheme by using flying photon ...
متن کاملCounterfactual quantum erasure: spooky action without entanglement
We combine the eyebrow-raising quantum phenomena of erasure and counterfactuality for the first time, proposing a simple yet unusual quantum eraser: A distant Bob can decide to erase which-path information from Alice's photon, dramatically restoring interference-without previously shared entanglement, and without Alice's photon ever leaving her laboratory.
متن کاملTransmitting Quantum Information Reliably across Various Quantum Channels
Transmitting quantum information across quantum channels is an important task. However quantum information is delicate, and is easily corrupted. We address the task of protecting quantum information from an information theoretic perspective – we encode some message qudits into a quantum code, send the encoded quantum information across the noisy quantum channel, then recover the message qudits ...
متن کاملQuantum information is physical
We discuss a few current developments in the use of quantum mechanically coherent systems for information processing. In each of these developments, Rolf Landauer has played a crucial role in nudging us, and other workers in the field, into asking the right questions, some of which we have been lucky enough to answer. A general overview of the key ideas of quantum error correction is given. We ...
متن کامل“Counterfactual” quantum protocols
The counterfactuality of recently proposed protocols is analyzed. A definition of ‘counterfactuality’ is offered and it is argued that an interaction-free measurement of the presence of an opaque object can be named ‘counterfactual’, while proposed “counterfactual” measurements of the absence of such objects are not counterfactual. The quantum key distribution protocols which rely only on measu...
