Abstract

We propose a deterministic scheme for teleporting an unknown qubit state through continuous-variable entangled states in superconducting circuits. The qubit is a superconducting two-level system and the bipartite quantum channel is a microwave photonic entangled coherent state between two cavities. A Bell-type measurement performed on the hybrid state of solid and photonic states transfers a discrete-variable unknown electronic state to a continuous-variable photonic cat state in a cavity mode. In order to facilitate the implementation of such complex protocols we propose a design for reducing the self-Kerr nonlinearity in the cavity. The teleporation scheme enables quantum information processing operations with circuit-QED based on entangled coherent states. These include state verification and single-qubit operations with entangled coherent states. These are shown to be experimentally feasible with the state of the art superconducting circuits.

Highlights

  • State (ECS), |ψ〉=|α〉|α〉+|−α〉|−α〉, naturally fits to be a channel state for CV teleportation

  • In contrast to discrete variables (DVs)- and CV-only teleportations, we find that the teleportation fidelity depends on the amount of decoherence and on the amplitude size of the ECS channel state

  • Before we present the details of hybrid teleportation, let us discuss one of the major barriers to realising complex protocols involving ECS, namely the ‘self-Kerr effect’

Summary

Introduction

State (ECS), |ψ〉=|α〉|α〉+|−α〉|−α〉, naturally fits to be a channel state for CV teleportation. DV-CV hybrid teleportation is an alternative for DV-qubit teleportation and advantageous for practical quantum information processing in solid-state and cavity-QED systems[53,54,55,56]. These recent developments will lead innovative tools for quantum computing using hybrid single- and two-qubit gates[57,58,59]. The scheme is physically hybrid in the sense that it teleports quantum information from a solid-state qubit to microwave photonic state It is a core building block required for measurement-based quantum computation in superconducting circuits[5,6,28,60]. The schemes of verification of ECSs and of a single-qubit gate on ECSs are proposed toward universal hybrid quantum computing in circuit-QED
