Entanglement distillation by dissipation and continuous quantum repeaters
Karl Gerd H. Vollbrecht, Christine A. Muschik, J. Ignacio Cirac
Even though entanglement is very vulnerable to interactions with the environment, it can be created by purely dissipative processes. Yet, the attainable degree of entanglement is p…
Quantum state engineering, purification, and number resolved photon detection with high finesse optical cavities
Anne E. B. Nielsen, Christine A. Muschik, Geza Giedke +1
We propose and analyze a multi-functional setup consisting of high finesse optical cavities, beam splitters, and phase shifters. The basic scheme projects arbitrary photonic two-mo…
Ground state cooling of atoms in optical lattices
M. Popp, J. J. Garcia-Ripoll, K. G. H. Vollbrecht +1
We propose two schemes for cooling bosonic and fermionic atoms that are trapped in a deep optical lattice. The first scheme is a quantum algorithm based on particle number filterin…
Efficient distillation beyond qubits
K. G. H. Vollbrecht, M. M. Wolf
We provide generalizations of known two-qubit entanglement distillation protocols for arbitrary Hilbert space dimensions. The protocols, which are analogues of the hashing and bree…
