Toward a quantum repeater protocol based on the coherent state approach
arXiv:2105.10778 · doi:10.1088/1555-6611/ab1cbc
Abstract
The aim of this paper is to swap the entanglement between two separate long distant locations. The well-known entangled coherent states as two-mode continuous-variable states are very interesting in quantum teleportation and entanglement swapping processes. To make our investigation more realistic, by using such entangled states as the building block of our quantum repeater protocol, the effect of decoherence on the swapped entanglement is also considered. We explicitly establish our model for four locations, moreover, we find that our model can be extended to 2N locations, where N = 3; 4; ... . Consequently, we could introduce this model as a quantum repeater which is helpful for entanglement swapping to enough long distances.
