Bell state analysis using orbital angular momentum and path degrees of freedom

Bell state analysis (BSA) constitutes a foundational operation for distinguishing Bell states in numerous quantum information processing (QIP) protocols. In this work, we propose a theoretical scheme for realizing a perfect BSA tailored for polarized Bell states, with assistance from orbital angular momentum (OAM) and path entanglement. The linear-optics-based architecture for BSA circumvents the inherent limitations of nonlinear optical processes and enhances the robustness against environmental noise -- a major challenge in practical QIP implementations. The integrating hyperentanglement (combining polarization, OAM, and path degrees of freedom (DOFs)) raises the theoretical success probability to 100%, achieving deterministic BSA. This deterministic BSA scheme offers a promising route toward practical, high-performance QIP in photonic systems, leveraging current experimental techniques and addressing key limitations of existing methods.

Generation of Four-Component Schr\"odinger Cat States via Floquet Engineering in a Hybrid Ferromagnet-Superconductor System

Four-component Schr\"odinger cat (4C) states are important physical resources for fault-tolerant quantum computing. However, the generation of 4C states in solid-state platforms remains challenging due to stringent nonlinearity requirements. In this paper, a Floquet-engineering scheme is proposed for generating 4C states in a hybrid ferromagnet-superconductor system. Numerical simulations show that the high-fidelity 4C states can be generated even if the decoherence of the system is considered. These results provide a scalable route to multi-component cat-state engineering in solid-state platforms and open new avenues for quantum computation.

Magnon Blockade with Skyrmion Qubit-Magnon Coupling in a Hybrid Quantum System

Magnon blockade is a fundamental quantum phenomenon for generating single-magnon state, which gradually becomes one of the candidates for quantum information processing. In this paper, we propose a theoretical scheme to generate the magnon blockade in a hybrid system consisting of a YIG micromagnet and a skyrmion. Considering weak probing of the magnon and driving of the skyrmion qubit, the second-order correlation function is analytically derived, and the optimal condition for realizing the magnon blockade is identified. Under the optimal condition, we systematically analyze the behavior of the second-order correlation function $g^{(2)}(0)$ under different parameter regimes. Our analysis shows that with appropriate driving and probing field intensities, the magnon blockade effect can be significantly enhanced, effectively suppressing multi-magnon states and facilitating the generation of high-purity single-magnon states exhibiting pronounced antibunching. Furthermore, we explore the physical mechanisms underlying the magnon blockade, revealing the coexistence and interplay of conventional and unconventional magnon blockade. This scheme provides a versatile all-magnetic platform for generating high purity single-magnon sources.
