Quantum teleportation provides a disembodied way to transfer an unknown quantum state from one quantum system to another. However, all teleportation experiments to date are limited to cases where the target quantum system contains no prior quantum information. Here we propose a scheme for teleporting a quantum state to a quantum system with prior quantum information. By using an optical qubit-ququart entangling gate, we have experimentally demonstrated the new teleportation protocol -- teleporting a qubit to a photon preloaded with one qubit of quantum information. After the teleportation, the target photon contains two qubits of quantum information, one from the teleported qubit and the other from the pre-existing qubit. The teleportation fidelities range from $0.70$ to $0.92$, all above the classical limit of $2/3$. Our work sheds light on a new direction for quantum teleportation and demonstrates our ability to implement entangling operations beyond two-level quantum systems.

Quantum teleportation is considered a basic primitive in many quantum information processing tasks and has been experimentally confirmed in various photonic and matter-based setups. Here, we consider teleportation of quantum information encoded in mo des of a fermionic field. In fermionic systems, superselection rules lead to a more differentiated picture of entanglement and teleportation. In particular, one is forced to distinguish between single-mode entanglement swapping, and qubit teleportation with or without authentication via Bell inequality violation, as we discuss here in detail. We focus on systems subject to parity superselection where the particle number is not fixed, and contrast them with systems constrained by particle number superselection which are relevant for possible practical implementations. Finally, we analyze the consequences for the operational interpretation of fermionic mode entanglement and examine the usefulness of so-called mixed maximally entangled states for teleportation.
The implementation of polarization-based quantum communication is limited by signal loss and decoherence caused by the birefringence of a single-mode fiber. We investigate the Knill dynamical decoupling scheme, implemented using half-wave plates, to minimize decoherence and show that a fidelity greater than $99%$ can be achieved in absence of rotation error and fidelity greater than $96%$ can be achieved in presence of rotation error. Such a scheme can be used to preserve any quantum state with high fidelity and has potential application for constructing all optical quantum delay line, quantum memory, and quantum repeater.
A quantum network requires information transfer between distant quantum computers, which would enable distributed quantum information processing and quantum communication. One model for such a network is based on the probabilistic measurement of two photons, each entangled with a distant atom or atomic ensemble, where the atoms represent quantum computing nodes. A second, deterministic model transfers information directly from a first atom onto a cavity photon, which carries it over an optical channel to a second atom; a prototype with neutral atoms has recently been demonstrated. In both cases, the central challenge is to find an efficient transfer process that preserves the coherence of the quantum state. Here, following the second scheme, we map the quantum state of a single ion onto a single photon within an optical cavity. Using an ion allows us to prepare the initial quantum state in a deterministic way, while the cavity enables high-efficiency photon generation. The mapping process is time-independent, allowing us to characterize the interplay between efficiency and fidelity. As the techniques for coherent manipulation and storage of multiple ions at a single quantum node are well established, this process offers a promising route toward networks between ion-based quantum computers.
For decades, researchers have sought to understand how the irreversibility of the surrounding world emerges from the seemingly time symmetric, fundamental laws of physics. Quantum mechanics conjectured a clue that final irreversibility is set by the measurement procedure and that the time reversal requires complex conjugation of the wave function, which is overly complex to spontaneously appear in nature. Building on this Landau-Wigner conjecture, it became possible to demonstrate that time reversal is exponentially improbable in a virgin nature and to design an algorithm artificially reversing a time arrow for a given quantum state on the IBM quantum computer. However, the implemented arrow-of-time reversal embraced only the known states initially disentangled from the thermodynamic reservoir. Here we develop a procedure for reversing the temporal evolution of an arbitrary unknown quantum state. This opens the route for general universal algorithms sending temporal evolution of an arbitrary system backwards in time.
Integrated quantum photonics provides a promising route towards scalable solid-state implementations of quantum networks, quantum computers, and ultra-low power opto-electronic devices. A key component for many of these applications is the photonic q uantum logic gate, where the quantum state of a solid-state quantum bit (qubit) conditionally controls the state of a photonic qubit. These gates are crucial for development of robust quantum networks, non-destructive quantum measurements, and strong photon-photon interactions. Here we experimentally realize a quantum logic gate between an optical photon and a solid-state qubit. The qubit is composed of a quantum dot (QD) strongly coupled to a nano-cavity, which acts as a coherently controllable qubit system that conditionally flips the polarization of a photon on picosecond timescales, implementing a controlled-NOT (cNOT) gate. Our results represent an important step towards solid-state quantum networks and provide a versatile approach for probing QD-photon interactions on ultra-fast timescales.
