Entangling two qudits of arbitrary dimension through light-atomic Faraday interaction

The paper investigates entangling operations acting on two qudits of arbitrary dimension, with one encoded in the states of a spatially multimode optical field, the other in those of atomic collective spin coherence, both carrying orbital angular momentum (OAM). We demonstrate the generation of a wide range of entangling operations within a protocol consisting of two Faraday interactions and a rotation of atomic and light quadratures between them. All generated gates can be represented as rational powers of the d-dimensional gate $SWAP^α_d$. The probabilities of two-qudit transformations are calculated for various dimensions of the logical space and for different entangling powers of the logical gates.

Parallel two-qubit entangling gates via a quantum nondemolition interaction controlled by rotation

The paper presents an analysis of entangling and nonlocal operations in a quantum nondemolition (QND) interaction between multimode light with orbital angular momentum and an atomic ensemble. A protocol consists of two QND operations with rotations of quadratures of atomic spin coherence and light between them. This protocol provides a wide range of two-qubit operations, while the multimode nature of the chosen degrees of freedom allows the implementation of parallel operations over multiple two-qubit systems. We have used the formalism of equivalence classes and local invariants to evaluate the properties of two-qubit transformations. It is shown that, when selecting suitable values of the governing parameters, such as the duration of each of the two QND interactions and the rotation angles of the qubits, the protocol allows to realize a deterministic nonlocal $SWAP$ operation and entangling $\sqrt{SWAP}$ operation with probability 1/3.

Parallel multi-two-qubit SWAP gate via QND interaction of OAM light and atomic ensemble

Nowadays quantum SWAP gate has become an integral part of quantum computing, so investigation of methods of its realization seems to be an important practical problem for various quantum-optical and information applications. In the present paper we propose a scheme for performing a SWAP logic operation in discrete variables in the framework of quantum non-demolition interaction between an atomic ensemble and a multimode light with orbital angular momentum. We discuss in detail the procedure for revealing two-qubit closed subsystems on a set of atomic and field states for different values of the driving field orbital momentum. We also demonstrate the possibility of implementing a parallel multi-two-qubit quantum SWAP gate.

Heralded gate search with genetic algorithms for quantum computation

In this paper we present genetic algorithms based search technique for the linear optics schemes, performing two-qubit quantum gates. We successfully applied this technique for finding heralded two-qubit gates and obtained the new schemes with performance parameters equal to the best currently known. The new simple metrics is introduced which enables comparison of schemes with different heralding mechanisms. The scheme performance degradation is discussed for the cases when detectors in the heralding part of the scheme are not photon-number-resolving. We propose a procedure for overcoming this drawback which allows us to restore the reliable heralding signal even with not-photon-number-resolving detectors.

Broadband chip-based source of a quantum noise with electrically-controllable beam splitter

For the first time, the theory and practical realization of a broadband quantum noise generator based on original integrated optical beam splitter in the form of a Mach-Zehnder interferometer is demonstrated. The beam splitter with a double output, made on a lithium niobate substrate, provided accurate electro-optical balancing of the homodyne quantum noise detection circuit. According to our knowledge, the experimentally obtained excess of quantum noise over classical noise by 12 dB in the frequency band over 4 GHz, which is the best parameters of quantum noise generators known from the literature.

High-fidelity quantum gates for OAM qudits on quantum memory

The application of high-dimensional quantum systems (qudits) in quantum computing and communications seems to be a promising avenue due to the possibility of increasing the amount of information encoded in one physical carrier. In this work, we propose a method for implementing single-qudit gates for qudits based on light modes with orbital angular momentum. Method for logical qudits encoding, which ensures the quasi-cyclicity of operations, is introduced. Based on the protocol for converting the orbital angular momentum of light in the Raman quantum memory scheme [Vashukevich E.A. et. al. PRA, 101, 033830 (2020)], we show that the considered gates provide an extremely high level of fidelity of single-qudit transformations. We also compare quantum gates' properties for systems of different dimensions and find the optimal conditions for carrying out transformations in the protocol under consideration.

Quantum theory of a laser soliton

The Heisenberg-Langevin equation for a spatial laser soliton in a wide-aperture laser with saturable absorption is constructed within the framework of consistent quantum electrodynamics. We discuss in detail the canonical variables for the generation field and the material two-level medium, consisting of centres providing amplification and absorption. It is assumed that laser generation evolves in time much more slowly than an atomic media. This assumption makes it possible to apply the adiabatic approximation and construct a closed equation for the amplitude of a laser field. Much attention is paid to the formulation of Langevin sources when deriving the equation since they play a decisive role in the formation of solitons' quantum statistical features. To provide an appropriate procedure for observing the quantum squeezing of a soliton, synchronization of laser generation by an external weak electromagnetic field is considered. Here we also present the results of the analysis of a classical laser soliton (neglecting the quantum fluctuations), which serves as the basis for further consideration of quantum effects.

Effect of saturated absorption on sub-Poissonian lasing

This paper discusses the effect of saturated absorption on the quantum features of a sub-Poissonian laser. It is shown that when both media (laser and absorbing) are saturated, the appearance of an additional element in the cavity does not lead to the demolition of the quantum properties (regular statistics of photons and quadrature squeezing) of laser radiation.

Squeezed supermodes and cluster states based on modes with orbital angular momentum

In this paper we discuss the possibility of building a linear cluster state based on modes with a certain orbital angular momentum (OAM). We show that in the system under consideration a field with a rich mode structure is generated in the cavity. We also analyze the conditions under which an infinite system of Heisenberg-Langevin equations describing the dynamics of intracavity fields can be shortened and solved analytically. To analyze the genuine number of quantum degrees of freedom, we use the supermodes technique. This approach allows us to build the most entangled cluster state.
