This system uses a novel ultrabright source of entangled photon pairs and trapped-atom quantum memories. This thesis will investigate the potential teleportation errors involved in the MIT/NU system. A single-photon, Bell-diagonal error model is developed that allows us to restrict possible errors to just four distinct events. The effects of these errors on teleportation, as well as their probabilities of occurrence, are determined.

The scheme has a maximal efficiency of 25%, which is limited both by the shared entangled state as well as the Bell-state measurement. We consider two experimental implementations, realizable with current technology. The first relies on surface acoustic waves, where all the ingredients are readily available. The second is based on Lorentzian voltage pulses in quantum Hall edge channels. As single-electron detection is not yet experimentally established in these systems, we consider a tomographic detection of teleportation using current correlators up to (and including) third order. For both implementations, we take into account environmental effects. DOI: 10.1103/PhysRevB.101.195403 I.

  • Quantum Teleportation in Quantum Dots System Abstract
    Quantum Teleportation in Quantum Dots System Hefeng Wang and Sabre Kais∗ Department of Chemistry and Birck Nanotechnology Center, Purdue University, West Lafayette, IN 47907 Abstract We present a model of quantum teleportation protocol based on one-dimensional quantum dots system. Three quantum dots with three electrons are used to perform teleportation, the unknown qubit is encoded using one electron spin on quantum dot A, the other two dots B and C are coupled to form a mixed space-spin entangled state. By choosing the Hamiltonian for the mixed space- spin entangled system, we can filter the space (spin) entanglement to obtain pure spin (space) entanglement, and after a Bell measurement, the unknown qubit is transfered to quantum dot B. Selecting an appropriate Hamiltonian for the quantum gate allows the spin-based information to be transformed into a charge-based information. The possibility of generalizing this model to N-electrons is discussed. The Hamiltonian to construct the CNOT gate, and the pulse sequence to realize the Hamiltonian are discussed in detail. 1 Contents I. Introduction 2 II. Entanglement 4 III. Quantum Teleportation 6 IV.

  • Quantum Entanglement and Teleportation Brent R. Yates Physics 555B Spring 2010
    Quantum Entanglement and Teleportation Brent R. Yates Physics 555B Spring 2010 Abstract Even Einstein has to be wrong sometimes. However, when Einstein was wrong he created a 70 year debate about the strange behavior of quantum mechanics. His debate helped prove topics such as the indeterminacy of particle states, quantum entanglement, and a rather clever use of quantum entanglement known as quantum teleportation. Introduction Quantum mechanics by nature is inherently a statistical field. A particle can never be predicted with absolute certainty, only with certain probabilities of being in a particular state. Even stranger is the idea that a particle is not in any given state but rather all states at once until it is observed. Once observed a particle is then permanently fix in the observed state. Einstein was convinced that quantum mechanics was simply a statistical approximation of a more concrete and precise description of the world. In his attempts to “complete” quantum theory Einstein introduced several ideas such as local hidden variables (parameters that could not be directly seen, but affected and ultimately determined the state of a particle). He tried to use these hidden variables to solve the “problem” of entanglement and to prove that quantum particles indeed always had fixed values. Einstein was ultimately proven wrong, but he was “brilliantly wrong” (1). The disproval of Einstein’s theories ultimately lead to concrete proof of phenomena such as entanglement, and entanglement was then exploited to allow the teleportation of quantum particles. Theoretical Entanglement The basic idea of quantum entanglement is two or more “entangled” particles have direct influence on each other, even at a distance.

  • Entanglement and Quantum Key Distribution
    Entanglement and Quantum Key Distribution By Justin Winkler Entanglement in quantum mechanics refers to particles whose individual states cannot be written without reference to the state of other particles. Such states are said to be non-separable, and measurements of the state of one entangled particle alter the state of all entangled particles. This unusual phenomena has applications in quantum teleportation, superdense coding, and various other applications relating to quantum computing. Of some interest is how entanglement can be applied to the field of quantum cryptography, particularly quantum key distribution. Quantum key distribution (QKD) is a technique that allows for secure distribution of keys to be used for encrypting and decrypting messages. The technique of QKD was proposed by Charles H. Bennett and Gilles Brassard in 1984, describing a protocol that would come to be known as BB84 [1]. BB84 was originally described using photon polarization states; no quantum entanglement was required. BB84 requires measurement in two different orthogonal bases. Making use of the case of photon polarization, one basis is typically rectilinear, with vertical polarization at 0° and horizontally polarization at 90°, while the other basis is diagonal, with vertical polarization at 45° and horizontal polarization at 135°. Bit values can then be assigned as, for example, 0 for a vertically polarized photon and 1 for a horizontally polarized photon. To distribute a key, the distributing party, Alice, creates a random bit in a random basis, sending a photon being 1 or 0 in either the rectilinear or diagonal basis. The photon created by Alice is received by Bob, who does not know the basis Alice used.
