An optical Eratosthenes' sieve for large prime numbers
Bohan Li, G. Maltese, J. I. Costa-Filho +2
We report the first experimental demonstration of prime number sieve via linear optics. The prime numbers distribution is encoded in the intensity zeros of the far field produced b…
Entanglement and teleportation between polarization and wave-like encodings of an optical qubit
Demid V. Sychev, Alexander E. Ulanov, Anastasia A. Pushkina +3
Light is an irreplaceable means of communication among various quantum information processing and storage devices. Due to their different physical nature, some of these devices cou…
Breeding the optical Schroedinger's cat state
Demid V. Sychev, Alexander E. Ulanov, Anastasia A. Pushkina +3
Superpositions of macroscopically distinct quantum states, introduced in Schroedinger's famous Gedankenexperiment, are an epitome of quantum "strangeness" and a natural tool for de…
A scheme for quantum teleportation between discrete and continuous encodings of an optical qubit
Alexander E. Ulanov, Demid Sychev, Anastasia A. Pushkina +2
Transfer of quantum information between physical systems of a different nature is a central matter in quantum technologies. Particularly challenging is the transfer between discret…
