Criteria for Continuous-Variable Quantum Teleportation
نویسندگان
چکیده
We derive an experimentally testable criterion for the teleportation of quantum states of continuous variables. This criterion is especially relevant to the recent experiment of Furusawa et al. [Science 282, 706 (1998)] where an input-output fidelity of 0.58 ± 0.02 was achieved for optical coherent states. Our derivation demonstrates that fidelities greater than 1/2 could not have been achieved through the use of a classical channel alone; quantum entanglement was a crucial ingredient in the experiment.

Unconditional teleportation of continuous-variable entanglement
We give a protocol and criteria for demonstrating unconditional teleportation of continuous-variable entanglement ~i.e., entanglement swapping!. The initial entangled states are produced with squeezed light and linear optics. We show that any nonzero entanglement ~any nonzero squeezing! in both of two entanglement sources is sufficient for entanglement swapping to occur. In fact, realization of...
متن کامل0 Teleportation Criteria : Form and Significance
Our criteria for continuous variable quantum teleportation [T. take the form of sums, rather than products, of conjugate quadrature measurements of the signal transfer coefficients and the covariances between the input and output states. We discuss why they have this form. We also discuss the physical significance of the covariance inequality. Recently we have proposed criteria for the characte...
متن کاملQuantum teleportation criteria for continuous variables
We discuss the criteria presently used for evaluating the efficiency of quantum teleportation schemes for continuous variables. It is argued that the fidelity criterion used so far has some severe drawbacks, and that a fidelity value larger than 2/3 is actually required for successful quantum teleportation. This value has never been reached experimentally so far.

Quantum teleportation of an unknown broadband electromagnetic field is investigated. The continuousvariable teleportation protocol by Braunstein and Kimble @Phys. Rev. Lett. 80, 869 ~1998!# for teleporting the quantum state of a single mode of the electromagnetic field is generalized for the case of a multimode field with finite bandwith. We discuss criteria for continuous-variable teleportatio...
متن کاملTeleportation of Continuous Quantum Variables: a New Approach
Abstract. Teleportation of optical field states (as continuous quantum variables) is usually described in terms of Wigner functions. This is in marked contrast to the theoretical treatment of teleportation of qubits. In this paper we show that by using the holomorphic representation of the canonical commutation relations, teleportation of continuous quantum variables can be treated in complete ...
