5 Dec 2000 | | Journal: | Nature 410, 1067-1070 (2001) | | Subject: | quant-ph | | Affiliation: | University of Vienna | | Abstract: | The distribution of entangled states between distant locations will be essential for the future large scale realization of quantum communication schemes such as quantum cryptography and quantum teleportation. Because of the unavoidable noise in the quantum communication channel, the entanglement between two particles is more and more degraded the further they propagate. Entanglement purification is thus essential to distill highly entangled states from less entangled ones. Existing general purification protocols are based on the quantum controlled-NOT (CNOT) or similar quantum logic operations, which are very difficult to implement experimentally. Present realizations of CNOT gates are much too imperfect to be useful for long-distance quantum communication. Here we present a feasible scheme for the entanglement purification of general mixed entangled states, which does not require any CNOT operations, but only simple linear optical elements. Since the perfection of such elements is very high, the local operations necessary for purification can be performed with the required precision. Our procedure is within the reach of current technology and should significantly simplify the implementation of long-distance quantum communication. | | Source: | arXiv, quant-ph/0012026 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
