چکیده

In recent years, there has been heightened interest in quantum teleportation, which allows for the transfer of unknown quantum states over arbitrary distances. Quantum teleportation not only serves as an essential ingredient in long-distance quantum communication, but also provides enabling technologies for practical quantum computation. Of particular interest is the scheme proposed by D. Gottesman and I. L. Chuang [(1999) Nature 402:390-393], showing that quantum gates can be implemented by teleporting qubits with the help of some special entangled states. Therefore, the construction of a quantum computer can be simply based on some multiparticle entangled states, Bell-state measurements, and single-qubit operations. The feasibility of this scheme relaxes experimental constraints on realizing universal quantum computation. Using two different methods, we demonstrate the smallest nontrivial module in such a scheme--a teleportation-based quantum entangling gate for two different photonic qubits. One uses a high-fidelity six-photon interferometer to realize controlled-NOT gates, and the other uses four-photon hyperentanglement to realize controlled-Phase gates. The results clearly demonstrate the working principles and the entangling capability of the gates. Our experiment represents an important step toward the realization of practical quantum computers and could lead to many further applications in linear optics quantum information processing.

Realization of the Optimal Universal Quantum Entangler

We present the first experimental demonstration of the ”optimal” and ”universal” quantum entangling process involving qubits encoded in the polarization (−→π ) of single photons. The structure of the ”quantum entangling machine” consists of the quantum injected optical parametric amplifier by which the contextual realization of the 1 → 2 universal quantum cloning and of the universal NOT (U-NOT...

Experimental realization of a controlled-NOT gate with four-photon six-qubit cluster states.

We experimentally demonstrate an optical controlled-NOT (CNOT) gate with arbitrary single inputs based on a 4-photon 6-qubit cluster state entangled both in polarization and spatial modes. We first generate the 6-qubit state, and then, by performing single-qubit measurements, the CNOT gate is applied to arbitrary single input qubits. To characterize the performance of the gate, we estimate its ...

From Qubits to Continuous–Variable Quantum Computation

By encoding a qudit in a harmonic oscillator and investigating the d → ∞ limit, we give an entirely new realization of continuous–variable quantum computation. The generalized Pauli group is generated by number and phase operators for harmonic oscillators. The use of continuous–variable (CV) quantum computing allows information to be encoded and processed much more compactly and efficiently tha...

Clifford group dipoles and the enactment of Weyl/Coxeter group W (E8) by entangling gates

Peres/Mermin arguments about no-hidden variables in quantummechanics are used for displaying a pair (R,S) of entangling Clifford quantum gates, acting on two qubits. From them, a natural unitary realization of Coxeter/Weyl groups W (D5) and W (F4) emerges, which is also reflected into the splitting of the n-qubit Clifford group Cn into group dipoles C± n . The union of the three-qubit real Clif...

Deterministic teleportation of a quantum gate between two logical qubits

A quantum computer has the potential to efficiently solve problems that are intractable for classical computers. Constructing a largescale quantum processor, however, is challenging due to errors and noise inherent in real-world quantum systems. One approach to this challenge is to utilize modularity—a pervasive strategy found throughout nature and engineering— to build complex systems robustly...
