چکیده

We propose a scheme for implementing a multipartite quantum filter that uses entangled photons as a resource. It is shown that the success probability for the 2-photon parity filter can be as high as 1 2 , which is the highest that has so far been predicted without the help of nonlocal quantum gates. Furthermore, the required number of ancilla photons is the least of all current parity filter proposals. Remarkably, the quantum filter operates with probability 1 2 even in the N -photon case, irregardless of the number of photons in the input state.

Multiphoton population transfer between the rovibrational states of HF

Efficient population transfer by adiabatically chirping through a multiphoton resonance in microwave driven and kicked Rydberg atoms has recently been reported both experimentally and theoretically. Here we report on our simulations in which we have exploited this mechanism to vibrationally excite a diatomic molecule up to |ν = 4, J 〉 from the ground state by chirping through a four-photon reso...

Designing a quantum genetic controller for tracking the path of quantum systems

Based on learning control methods and computational intelligence, control of quantum systems is an attractive field of study in control engineering. What is important is to establish control approach ensuring that the control process converges to achieve a given control objective and at the same time it is simple and clear. In this paper, a learning control method based on genetic quantum contr...

Quantum filter for nonlocal polarization properties of photonic qubits.

We present an optical filter that transmits photon pairs only if they share the same horizontal or vertical polarization, without decreasing the quantum coherence between these two possibilities. Various applications for entanglement manipulations and multiphoton qubits are discussed.

Engineering two-photon high-dimensional states through quantum interference

Many protocols in quantum science, for example, linear optical quantum computing, require access to large-scale entangled quantum states. Such systems can be realized through many-particle qubits, but this approach often suffers from scalability problems. An alternative strategy is to consider a lesser number of particles that exist in high-dimensional states. The spatial modes of light are one...

Efficient optical quantum state engineering.

We discuss a novel method of efficiently producing multiphoton states using repeated spontaneous parametric down-conversion. Specifically, by attempting down-conversion several times, we can pseudodeterministically add photons to a mode, producing various several-photon states, e.g., Fock states and N00N states (number-path entangled states of the form |N(A), 0(B)>+|0(A), N(B)>). This scheme is...
