New kind of asymmetric integration projection operators constructed by entangled state representations and parity measurement

By means of the technique of integration within an ordered product of operators and Dirac notation, we introduce a new kind of asymmetric integration projection operators in entangled state representations. These asymmetric projection operators are proved to be the Hermitian operator. Then, we rigorously demonstrate that they correspond to a parity measurement combined with a beam splitter when any two-mode quantum state passes through such device. Therefore we obtain a new relation between a Hermitian operator and the entangled state representation. As applications, we recover the previous results of the parity measurement in quantum metrology by our formalism.

Oxygen isotope effect on the superconductivity and stripe phase in La$_{1.6-x}$Nd$_{0.4}$Sr$_{x}$CuO$_4$

The oxygen isotope effect on the superconductivity, stripe phase and structure transition is systematically investigated in La$_{1.6-x}$Nd$_{0.4}$Sr$_{x}$CuO$_4$ with static stripe phase. Substitution of $^{16}$O by $^{18}$O leads to a decrease in superconducting transition temperature T$_C$, while enhances the temperature of the structural transition from low-temperature-orthorhombic (LTO) phase to low-temperature-tetragonal (LTT) phase. Compared to the Nd free sample, a larger isotope effect on $T_C$ is observed in La$_{1.6-x}$Nd$_{0.4}$Sr$_{x}$CuO$_4$. These results indicate that the distortion of CuO$_2$ plane suppresses the superconductivity, giving a direct evidence for the competing of stripe phase and superconductivity because the distortion of CuO$_2$ plane enhances the stripe phase.
