    Background

    Teleportation: Completetransfer of informationabout the quantum state.

    Would require an infiniteensemble of the state to betransferred and an infinite

    amount of classicalinformation.

    However, usingentanglement and only two

    bits of classical information,a scheme for teleportationhas been devised.

    CLASSICAL INFORMATION

    Alice performs a projective Bellstate measurement: PlacesBobs qubit is in one of fourstates

    Alice sends Bob themeasurement outcome

    Bob can retrieve the sourcestate by unitary operations

    Teleportation with Photons Qubits: Polarized photons

    created by parametricdown conversion. Bell state measurement by

    ALICE: Only 11 (antisymmetric

    bell state) can be

    measured. In the event of11

    measurement:Teleportation of initialstate to BOB.

    Teleportation achieved at a

    fidelity of 70%, althoughteleportation is onlyachieved of the time.

    Teleportation in trichloroethylene using

    NMR

    Qubit: Two-level nuclearspins.

    Three inputs: Data qubit (C2) Ancilla (C1) Target qubit (H)

    C1 and H are entangled. Bell state measurement

    upon C1 & C2 teleports thedata state to the targetqubit, H.

    Conditional operations maybe done on H, so that thequantum state of C2 isretrieved.

    Conclusion and Outlook (1/2)

    Different realizations of teleportation have beendemonstrated: Polarized photons

    Post selection of data.

    No conditional operations.

    Trichloroethylene using NMR Complete, deterministic demonstration.

    Teleportation only over very small distances (few )

    Trapped ions Complete, deterministic demonstration.

    Incorporates most of the techniques required for scalable quantuminformation processing in an ion-trap system.

    Conclusion and Outlook (2/2)

    Teleportation may be important in potential applicationsto quantum computation and communication. Higher fidelities may be obtained by optimizing the

    experimental setup:

    Ion trap: Primarily magnetic field fluctuations and laser-frequency noise.

    This is important for: Implementation in a quantum computer.

    Ruling out hidden variable theories.
