Scheme to Implement Optimal Symmetric 1 → 2 Universal Quantum Telecloning Through Cavity-Assisted Interaction

Abstract

We propose a scheme to implement the optimal symmetric 1 → 2 universal quantum telecloning through cavity-assisted interaction. In our scheme, an arbitrary single atomic state can be telecloned to two single atomic states. And three atoms are trapped in three spatially separated cavities respectively. With a particular multiparticle entangled state acting as a quantum information channel and the trapped single atom acting as a quantum network node for its long-lived internal state, quantum information can be telecloned among nodes and can stored in the nodes.
