This paper proposes scalable schemes to generate the Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger (GHZ) state and the cluster state with atomic ensembles via the dipole blockade mechanism on an atom chip, where the qubit is not carried by a single atom but an atomic ensemble. In the protocols, multiqubit entangled states are determinately prepared. Needlessness for single-photon source further decreases the complexity of the experiment. Based on the present laboratory technique, the schemes may be realized. The achieved results reveal a prospect for large-scale quantum communication and quantum computation.
We propose schemes to generate an n-coherent-pulse GHZ state and a cluster state via the interaction between n coherent pulses and a two-sided cavity. In these schemes, a strong coupling condition is not needed, which makes the protocols possibly able to be implemented based on the current experiment technology.
Entanglement charge is an operational measure to quantify nonlocalities in ensembles consisting of bipartite quantum states.Here we generalize this nonlocality measure to single bipartite quantum states.As an example,we analyze the entanglement charges of some thermal states of two-qubit systems and show how they depend on the temperature and the system parameters in an analytical way.
Schemes are presented for realizing quantum controlled phase gate and preparing an N-qubit W-like state, which are based on the large-detuned interaction among three-state atoms, dual-mode cavity and a classical pulse. In particular, a class of W states that can be used for perfect teleportation and superdense coding is generated by only one step. Compared with the previous schemes, cavity decay is largely suppressed because the cavity is only virtually excited and always in the vacuum state and the atomic spontaneous emission is strongly restrained due to a large atom-field detuning.
This paper considers a scheme for the preparation of two-qutrit entangled states via adiabatic passage in iontrapped system. In the proposal, the two three-level V-type ions are initially cooled to the ground states and need not be separately addressed. Moreover, only the ionic states act as memory and the system evolves in the dark space during the whole procedure, which makes the system robust against the decoherence and the fluctuation of the laser pulse.
