چکیده

Quantum teleportation strikingly underlines the peculiar features of the quantum world. We present an experimental proof of its quantum nature, teleporting an entangled photon with such high quality that the nonlocal quantum correlations with its original partner photon are preserved. This procedure is also known as entanglement swapping. The nonlocality is confirmed by observing a violation of Bell's inequality by 4.5 standard deviations. Thus, by demonstrating quantum nonlocality for photons that never interacted, our results directly confirm the quantum nature of teleportation.

Comment on “Experimental Nonlocality Proof of Quantum Teleportation and Entanglement Swapping”

In a recent letter, Jennewein et al. [1] reported an experiment demonstrating entanglement swapping among two pairs (0,1 and 2,3) of down-converted photons. They accomplished this by performing a Bell measurement on photons 1 and 2, and they verified the effect with regular polarization measurements on photons 0 and 3. By selecting data from runs in which 1,2 are measured to be in the Bell stat...

Comment on “ Experimental Nonlocality Proof of Quantum Teleportation and Entanglement Swapping ” Luiz

(February 1, 2008) In a recent paper in which they demonstrate quantum nonlocality for photons that never interacted [1], Jennewein, Weihs, Pan, and Zeilinger mention a seemingly paradoxical situation that arises when Alice’s Bell-state analysis is delayed long after Bob’s measurements. According to the authors, “This seems paradoxical because Alice’s measurement projects photons 0 and 3 into a...

Experimental demonstration of four-photon entanglement and high-fidelity teleportation.

We experimentally demonstrate observation of highly pure four-photon GHZ entanglement produced by parametric down-conversion and a projective measurement. At the same time this also demonstrates teleportation of entanglement with very high purity. Not only does the achieved high visibility enable various novel tests of quantum nonlocality, it also opens the possibility to experimentally investi...

Entanglement Swapping of Generalized Cat States and Secret Sharing

We introduce generalized cat states for d-level systems and obtain concise formulas for their entanglement swapping with generalized Bell states. We then use this to provide both a generalization to the d-level case and a transparent proof of validity for an already proposed protocol of secret sharing based on entanglement swapping.

Disentangling Nonlocality and Teleportation

Quantum entanglement can be used to demonstrate nonlocality and to teleport a quantum state from one place to another. The fact that entanglement can be used to do both these things has led people to believe that teleportation is a nonlocal effect. In this paper it is shown that teleportation is conceptually independent of nonlocality. This is done by constructing a toy local theory in which cl...
