Qubit teleportation between a memory-compatible photonic time-bin qubit and a solid-state quantum network node

We report on a quantum interface linking a diamond NV center quantum network node and 795nm photonic time-bin qubits compatible with Thulium and Rubidium quantum memories. The interface makes use of two-stage low-noise quantum frequency conversion and waveform shaping to match temporal and spectral photon profiles. Two-photon quantum interference shows high indistinguishability between converted 795nm photons and the native NV center photons. We use the interface to demonstrate quantum teleportation including real-time feedforward from an unbiased set of 795nm photonic qubit input states to the NV center spin qubit, achieving a teleportation fidelity well above the classical bound. This proof-of-concept experiment shows the feasibility of interconnecting different quantum network hardware.

Teleportation with embezzling catalysts

Quantum teleportation is the process of transferring quantum information using classical communication and pre-shared entanglement. This process can benefit from the use of catalysts, which are ancillary entangled states that can enhance teleportation without being consumed. While chemical catalysts undergoing deactivation invariably exhibit inferior performance compared to those unaffected by deactivation, quantum catalysts, termed embezzling catalysts, that are subject to deactivation, may outperform their non-deactivating counterparts. In this work, we present teleportation protocols with embezzling catalysts that can achieve arbitrarily high fidelity. This enables the teleported state to closely approximate the original message state with arbitrary precision, while maintaining arbitrarily small variations in the catalytic system through the use of finite-dimensional embezzling catalysts. We show that some embezzling catalysts are universal, meaning that they can improve the teleportation fidelity for any pre-shared entanglement. We also explore methods to reduce the dimension of catalysts without increasing catalyst consumption, an essential step towards realizing quantum catalysis in practice.

Non-Markovian noise mitigation in quantum teleportation: enhancing fidelity and entanglement

Maintaining quantum coherence and entanglement in the presence of environmental noise, particularly within non-Markovian contexts, represents a significant challenge for the progression of quantum information science and technology. This study offers a substantial advancement by investigating the dynamics of a two-qubit system subjected to diverse noise conditions, encompassing relaxation, dephasing, and their cumulative effects. By employing quantum-state-diffusion equations specifically crafted for non-Markovian environments, we introduce an innovative strategy to counteract the detrimental influences of environmental noise on quantum teleportation fidelity and entanglement concurrence. Our results underscore the potential for external interventions to markedly improve the resilience of quantum information processing tasks over prolonged durations, especially in settings where dephasing noise prevails. A key revelation is the intricate relationship between dephasing noise and the initial state of entanglement, which profoundly impacts the occurrence of entanglement sudden death. This research not only deepens our comprehension of quantum system dynamics under noisy circumstances but also furnishes practical directives for engineering robust quantum systems, a necessity for the development of scalable quantum technologies.

Effect of noisy environment on secure quantum teleportation of unimodal Gaussian states

Quantum networks rely on quantum teleportation, a process where an unknown quantum state is transmitted between sender and receiver via entangled states and classical communication. In our study, we utilize a continuous variable two-mode squeezed vacuum state as the primary resource for quantum teleportation, shared by Alice and Bob, while exposed to a squeezed thermal environment. Secure quantum teleportation necessitates a teleportation fidelity exceeding 2/3 and the establishment of two-way steering of the resource state. We investigate the temporal evolution of steering and teleportation fidelity to determine critical parameter values for secure quantum teleportation of a coherent Gaussian state. Our findings reveal constraints imposed by temperature, dissipation rate, and squeezing parameters of the squeezed thermal reservoir on the duration of secure quantum teleportation. Intriguingly, we demonstrate that increasing the squeezing parameter of the initial state effectively extends the temporal window for a successful secure quantum teleportation.

Non-Gaussian two mode squeezed thermal states in continuous variable quantum teleportation

We consider a practical scheme for the implementation of non-Gaussian operation, viz., photon subtraction, photon addition, and photon catalysis, on two-mode squeezed thermal state. The generated states are employed as resources in continuous-variable quantum teleportation. The results show that the three non-Gaussian operations can enhance the teleportation fidelity. Considering the success probability of the non-Gaussian operations, we identify single-photon catalysis and single photon subtraction to be optimal for teleporting input coherent states and squeezed vacuum states, at low and intermediate squeezing levels, respectively.

Analyzing performance of f-deformed displaced Fock state in continuous-variable quantum teleportation

Performing non-Gaussian operations, namely photon addition, photon subtraction, photon-addition-then-subtraction, photon-subtraction-then-addition can successfully enhance the fidelity of the continuous-variable quantum teleportation. However, a shortcoming of these non-Gaussian resources is that they are probabilistic in nature. In this article, we investigate the success probability of the non-Gaussian resources for optimal performance of the ideal teleportation protocol. To this end, we first derive the analytical expression for the two-mode entangled channel having f-deformed displaced Fock state or photon-added displaced Fock state or photon-subtracted displaced Fock state at one port and vacuum at another port of a symmetric beam-splitter. The generalized displaced Fock states are obtained by replacing the conventional bosonic functions by the nonlinear f-deformed operators such as A = af(a † a) and B=af(a†a)−1 . The Wigner characteristic functions describing these three aforementioned non-Gaussian states are determined and utilized to attain the teleportation fidelity for input coherent and squeezed vacuum states. It is found that the nonlinear substitution leads to an enhancement in teleportation fidelity beyond the threshold limit. Moreover, the entangled photon-subtracted displaced Fock state demonstrates maximum efficiency as a quantum channel for teleporting single-mode coherent and squeezed states. We provide the squeezing regime values corresponding to the optimal performance of the non-Gaussian states considered, which will be of significant interest to the experimental fraternity. Further, we show that the entangled photon-added displaced Fock states have larger amount of entanglement but the entangled photon-subtracted displaced Fock states have stronger Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen correlation.

Nonclassicality and teleportation fidelity probes in amplitude-tailored superconducting charge qubits

Optimal procedures and appropriate designs of transmitting channels are required to preserve quantum correlations (QCs) in quantum teleportation schemes. In pursuit of this objective, a comprehensive investigation into the intricate dynamics of a quantum channel comprising two singular Cooper-pair charge qubits, mutually coupled and influenced by Josephson energy, has been undertaken. The use of the Gibbs density operator has provided valuable insights into the thermal quantum characteristics and teleportation fidelity of the system. Furthermore, this study underscores the critical interplay between the energy parameters and the utilization of quantum features to establish conducive conditions for the preservation of nonclassicality and the success of the teleportation scheme. Additionally, the study reveals that trace distance discord is the most resilient in the thermal output state, surpassing both concurrence and the degree of violation of Bell’s inequality. Notably, precise control of the input state amplitude and adept manipulation of the energy parameters have enhanced QCs and resulted in the teleportation fidelity exceeding the classical limit.

Performance optimization of continuous-variable quantum teleportation with generalized photon-varying non-Gaussian operations

Continuous variable quantum teleportation provides a path to the long-distance transmission of quantum states. Photon-varying non-Gaussian operations have been shown to improve the fidelity of quantum teleportation when integrated into the protocol. However, for a given type of non-Gaussian operation, the achievable fidelity varies with the parameters associated with the operation. Previous work only focused on particular settings of the parameters, over which an optimization was missing. The potential of such operations is not fully uncovered. Given a fixed non-Gaussian operation, the achievable fidelity also varies with input states. An operation that increases the fidelity for teleporting one class of states might do the contrary for other classes of states. A performance metric, upon which an operation is optimized, suitable for different input states, is also missing. In this work, we build a framework for photon-varying non-Gaussian operations for multimode states, upon which we propose a performance metric suitable for arbitrary teleportation input states. We then apply the new metric to evaluate different types of non-Gaussian operations. Starting from simple multiphoton photon subtraction and photon addition, we find that increasing the number of ancillary photons involved in the operation does not guarantee performance improvement. We then investigate a generalization of the operations mentioned above, finding that operations that approximate a particular form provide the best improvement. The results provided here will be valuable for real-world implementations of quantum teleportation networks and applications that harness the non-Gaussianity of quantum states.

Fidelity of wormhole teleportation in finite-qubit systems

The rapid development of quantum science and technology is leading us into an era where quantum many-body systems can be comprehended through quantum simulations. Holographic duality, which states gravity and spacetime can emerge from strongly interacting systems, then offers a natural avenue for the experimental study of gravity physics without delving into experimentally infeasible high energies. A prominent example is the simulation of traversable wormholes through the wormhole teleportation protocol, attracting both theoretical and experimental attention. In this work, we develop the theoretical framework for computing the fidelity of wormhole teleportation in N-qubit systems with all-to-all interactions, quantified by mutual information and entanglement negativity. The main technique is the scramblon effective theory, which captures universal out-of-time-order correlations in generic chaotic systems. We clarify that strong couplings between the two systems are essential for simulating the probe limit of semi-classical traversable wormholes using strongly interacting systems with near-maximal chaos. However, the teleportation signal diminishes rapidly when reducing the system size N, requiring a large number of qubits to observe a sharp signature of emergent geometry by simulating the Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev model. This includes both the causal time-order of signals and the asymmetry of the teleportation signal for coupling with different signs. As a comparison, the teleportation signal increases when reducing N in weakly interacting systems. We also analyze the fidelity of the generalized encoding scheme in fermionic string operators.

Asymmetric bidirectional quantum controlled teleportation via a seven-qubit Werner-like mixed state

Abstract An asymmetric bidirectional quantum controlled teleportation via a seven-qubit Werner-like mixed state is proposed. In the process of teleportation preparation, it is hypothesized that three imperfections could appear, namely (i) imperfection of the entangler device that may result in a non-maximal entanglement of the channel, (ii) local noises are introduced during the channel preparation process, and (iii) global noises occur during the channel state distribution to the corresponding parties. The local and global noises are selected as depolarizing noise with certain probability of transforming any entangled state into a maximally mixed state, resulting in a seven-qubit Werner-like mixed state. The teleportation fidelity with the presence of the imperfections is evaluated. It is shown that the teleportation is more robust under the presence of global noise compared to local noise.

Continuous variable quantum teleportation network with star topology

Quantum network allows communication among more than two users with quantum teleportation and high quantum fidelity enabled by non-classical resources. As one of the most versatile architectures, all users are connected mediated by the central station in the star topology network, leading to the realization of the information interconnection and interoperability. In this work, we experimentally demonstrate a 4-branch continuous variable (CV) quantum teleportation network with star topology by employing entangled sideband modes from one squeezed state of light. Here, multiple pairs of entangled sideband modes are distributed on demand to central station and four nodes, respectively. Each node linked to the network has its own communication channel with the central station, where the deterministic CV quantum teleportation protocol is implemented with the fidelities above 0.830.

Fidelity in quantum teleportation of 2 qubits with decoherent channel

This study discusses the one-way quantum teleportation of 2 qubits through a 4-qubit Bell state channel that is subject to decoherence. Decoherence is one of the unavoidable effects of noise in the transmission process. In the case of quantum teleportation, noise has an impact on the channel, causing changes in its state due to noise. In the absence of noise, teleportation occurs in an ideal state, resulting in a fidelity value of 1, signifying successful information transfer in the ideal scenario. However, when examined in the presence of noise, fidelity is not equal to 1 due to the influence of noise factors and the coefficient of the transmitted state. These noise factors indicate the strength of the noise. The stronger the noise, the lower the fidelity becomes.

Continuous Variable Quantum Teleportation in a Dissipative Environment: Comparison of Non‐Gaussian Operations Before and After Noisy Channel

AbstractThis article explores the relative advantages in continuous‐variable quantum teleportation when non‐Gaussian operations, namely, photon subtraction, addition, and catalysis, are performed before and after interaction with a noisy channel. The resource state for teleporting unknown coherent and squeezed vacuum states is generated using two distinct strategies: i) Implementation of non‐Gaussian operations on two mode squeezed vacuum (TMSV) state before interaction with a noisy channel, ii) Implementation of non‐Gaussian operations after interaction of TMSV state with a noisy channel. The results show that non‐Gaussian operations can enhance teleportation fidelity in a dissipative environment. However, the most advantageous non‐Gaussian operation and appropriate strategy depend on the state and channel parameters. The results suggest that employing such strategies can be advantageous in other non‐Gaussian continuous variable quantum information (QIP) processing tasks in a dissipative environment.

Enhancing quantum features and teleportation fidelity of two-mode non-Gaussian states using conditional measurements

The family of two-mode non-Gaussian entangled states, including the pair coherent states (PCSs) and their genealogies, has been extensively investigated regarding their quantum properties and their practical applications in quantum information. Specifically, certain states, such as the multiphoton catalytic pair coherent states (MCPCSs), have been newly introduced under specific experimental conditions. For a more feasible approach, in this paper, we introduce novel nonclassical states obtained by subtracting photons through conditional measurements using beam splitters applied to the two modes of the PCSs. These states are called pair coherent states with conditional measurements (PCSCMs). Our purpose is to demonstrate that the quantum features, such as entanglement, Einstein–Podolsky–Rosen (EPR) correlation, EPR steering, and the average fidelity in teleportation can be enhanced in comparison with both the original PCSs and the MCPCSs. In specific cases, several characteristics are observed in PCSCMs but not inspected in both PCSs and MCPCSs. In our findings, we prove that the quantum characteristics within the PCSCMs are influenced not just by the number of detected photons, denoted by variables k and l, but also by the discrepancy in photon numbers, especially by the difference of k − l.

Analysis of continuous-variable quantum teleportation enhanced by measurement-based noiseless quantum amplification.

Continuous-variable quantum teleportation enables deterministic teleportation of quantum states of optical modes. However, the state transfer is imperfect and limited by the amount of squeezing in the shared two-mode entangled state. Recently, it has been proposed and experimentally demonstrated that the performance of continuous-variable teleportation can be conditionally improved using a measurement-based noiseless quantum amplification [J. Zhao et al., Nat. Commun.14, 4745 (2023)10.1038/s41467-023-40438-z]. An inverse Gaussian filter with sufficiently high cut-off is applied to outcomes of the continuous-variable Bell measurement, which can increase the fidelity of state teleportation and the cost of making the protocol probabilistic. Here we provide a detailed theoretical analysis of this protocol and discuss its effects and limitations. We focus on teleportation of classes of Gaussian states with fixed covariance matrix and variable displacement. The measurement-based noiseless amplification conditionally improves the precision of estimation of the coherent displacement of the teleported state from the outcomes of continuous-variable Bell measurement. Therefore, more information about the teleported state is revealed and unity-gain teleportation becomes possible with a lower added thermal noise as compared to deterministic teleportation.

Quantum gate-assisted teleportation in noisy environments: robustness and fidelity improvement

Quantum teleportation as the key strategy for quantum communication requires pure maximally shared entangled states among quantum nodes. In practice, quantum decoherence drastically degrades the shared entanglement during entanglement distribution, which is a serious challenge for the development of quantum networks. However, most of the decoherence control strategies proposed thus far are either resource-intensive or time-consuming. To overcome this obstacle, we enable noise-resistant teleportation through a noisy channel with a limited number of qubits and without applying time-consuming weak measurements. We apply a quantum gate control unit consisting of a controlled NOT gate and a rotation gate after the original teleportation protocol is accomplished. Furthermore, we demonstrate that a teleportation fidelity of unity is attainable when environment-assisted measurement is added to the proposed teleportation protocol via quantum gates. Moreover, we present an entanglement distribution process by employing the designed quantum gate control unit followed by the deterministic standard teleportation protocol to improve teleportation fidelity by establishing improved shared entanglement. Our performance analysis indicates that the proposed teleportation schemes offer a competitive fidelity and success probability compared with the conventional schemes and a recent weak measurement-based teleportation protocol.

Optimal teleportation fidelity and its deviation in noisy scenarios

In this work, we study quantum teleportation, a fundamental protocol of quantum physics. In particular, we present a mathematical methodology to study the combined effects of noisy resource state and noisy classical communication on teleportation fidelity and its deviation. We describe a teleportation protocol where an arbitrary two-qubit state in canonical form is used as a resource. Thereafter, to teleport an unknown qubit, Alice measures her qubits in Bell basis and conveys the measurement outcome to Bob via noisy classical channel(s). We derive the exact formulae of optimal teleportation fidelity and corresponding fidelity deviation where the resource state and the classical communication, both can be noisy. To provide the proof of optimality, we provide a systematic method. We further find conditions for non-classical fidelity and dispersion-free teleportation for our teleportation protocol. In this way, we identify noisy environments where it is possible to achieve dispersion-free teleportation without compromising non-classical fidelity. We also demonstrate scenarios where the increase of entanglement in the resource state, may degrade the quality of teleportation — a counter-intuitive instance. Finally, we discuss about the minimum classical communication cost required to achieve non-classical fidelity for our protocol. Here we mainly focus on a possible way to optimize the classical communication cost.

Prospecting Quantum Correlations and Examining Teleportation Fidelity in a Pair of Coupled Double Quantum Dots System

AbstractThe topic of improving the ability of quantum systems to retain non‐local features and enhance the efficiency of quantum protocols continues. This study delves into the thermal investigation of quantum correlations and teleportation fidelity of a two‐qubit teleported state using excess electrons in a coupled double quantum dots system as a quantum channel. The study employs three reliable quantum quantifiers to prospect the resourcefulness and non‐classicality of the system. The findings suggest that preserving quantum correlations and optimizing teleportation fidelity require minimizing tunneling coupling and maximizing Coulomb interaction. The study has significant implications for quantum physics and its practical applications in quantum information processing.

Does Hawking effect always degrade fidelity of quantum teleportation in Schwarzschild spacetime?

Previous studies have shown that the Hawking effect always destroys quantum correlations and the fidelity of quantum teleportation in the Schwarzschild black hole. Here, we investigate the fidelity of quantum teleportation of Dirac fields between users in Schwarzschild spacetime. We find that, with the increase of the Hawking temperature, the fidelity of quantum teleportation can monotonically increase, monotonically decrease, or non-monotonically increase, depending on the choice of the initial state, which means that the Hawking effect can create net fidelity of quantum teleportation. This striking result banishes the extended belief that the Hawking effect of the black hole can only destroy the fidelity of quantum teleportation. We also find that quantum steering cannot fully guarantee the fidelity of quantum teleportation in Schwarzschild spacetime. This new unexpected source may provide a new idea for the experimental evidence of the Hawking effect.

High-fidelity quantum teleportation through noisy channels via weak measurement and environment-assisted measurement

A perfect teleportation protocol requires pure maximally shared entangled states. While in reality the shared entanglement is drastically degraded due to the inevitable interaction with the noisy environment. Here, we propose a teleportation protocol to teleport an unknown qubit through amplitude damping channels with a fidelity up to one with a single copy of the entangled state. Our proposed teleportation protocol, while illustrated using the Bell and W entangled states as examples, can be utilized with any type of entangled states. In our protocol, we utilize environment-assisted measurement (EAM) during the entanglement distribution, and further modify the original teleportation protocol to apply weak measurement in the last step of teleportation. We find a balance between teleportation fidelity and success probability by varying the strength of the weak measurement. Furthermore, we investigate the protection of third-party assisted teleportation protocols, where all the qubits of the entangled state pass through the amplitude damping channel. In particular, for the third-party assisted teleportation with the W state, the decoherence of the shared entanglement can be totally suppressed by using EAM, hence no weak measurement is required to achieve an average teleportation fidelity of unity. The numerical simulation results reveal that our proposed teleportation protocol outperforms both the weak measurement based probabilistic teleportation protocol and the original teleportation protocols without protection.
