Quantum state transfer is an important task in quantum information processing. It is known that one can engineer the couplings of a one-dimensional spin chain to achieve the goal of perfect state transfer. To leverage the value of these spin chains, a spin star is potentially useful for connecting different parts of a quantum network. In this work, we extend the spin-chain engineering problem to the problems with a topology of a star network. We show that a permanently coupled spin star can function as a network switch for transferring quantum states selectively from one node to another by varying the local potentials only. Together with one-dimensional chains, this result allows applications of quantum state transfer be applied to more general quantum networks.

Quantum key distribution (QKD) networks provide an infrastructure for establishing information-theoretic secure keys between legitimate parties via quantum and authentic classical channels. The deployment of QKD networks in real-world conditions face s several challenges, which are related in particular to the high costs of QKD devices and the condition to provide reasonable secret key rates. In this work, we present a QKD network architecture that provides a significant reduction in the cost of deploying QKD networks by using optical switches and reducing the number of QKD receiver devices, which use single-photon detectors. We describe the corresponding modification of the QKD network protocol. We also provide estimations for a network link of a total of 670 km length consisting of 8 nodes, and demonstrate that the switch-based architecture allows achieving significant resource savings of up to 28%, while the throughput is reduced by 8% only.
A novel quantum switch for continuous variables teleportation is proposed. Two pairs of EPR beams with identical frequency and constant phase relation are composed on two beamsplitters to produce two pairs of conditional entangled beams, two of which are sent to two sending stations(Alices) and others to two receiving stations(bobs). The EPR entanglement initionally results from two-mode quadrature squeezed state light. Converting the squeezed component of one of EPR sources between amplitude and phase, the input quantum state at a sender will be reproduced at two receivers in turn. The switching system manipulated by squeezed state light might be developed as a practical quantum switch device for the communication and teleportation of quantum information.

Using a dynamical quantum Zeno effect, we propose a general approach to control the coupling between a two-level system (TLS) and its surroundings, by modulating the energy level spacing of the TLS with a high frequency signal. We show that the TLS-- surroundings interaction can be turned on or off when the ratio between the amplitude and the frequency of the modulating field is adjusted to be a zero of a Bessel function. The quantum Zeno effect of the TLS can also be observed by the vanishing of the photon reflection at these zeros. Based on these results, we propose a quantum switch to control the transport of a single photon in a 1D waveguide. Our analytical results agree well with numerical results using Floquet theory.
We propose a nanostructure switch based on nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) which offers reliable quantum gate operation, an essential ingredient for building a quantum computer. The nuclear resonance is controlled by the magic number transitions of a few-electron quantum dot in an external magnetic field.
It is well known that quantum switch is an example of indefinite causal order. Recently, application of quantum switch on quantum channels, became a hot topic of discussion. It is possible to achieve significant improvement in communication, when a q uantum switch is applied on quantum channels. Though above-said improvement is not possible for all quantum channels. For some quantum channels, improvement can be very high. One such example has been discussed in [New J. of Phys. 23, 033039 (2021)] where perfect communication can be achieved. But incidentally that example of channel is unique up to unitary transformations. Therefore, it is important to study the application of quantum switch on other quantum channels where improvement may not be ultimate but significant. Here, we study the application of quantum switch on various quantum channels. In particular we show that if it is not possible to achieve improvement deterministically, it may be possible to achieve improvement probabilistically. It is known that if a quantum channel is useless for some information theoretic task, concatenation of quantum channels generally does not provide any advantage whenever that channel is used. But we show that if a quantum channel is useless even after use of quantum switch, concatenation of quantum channel can make it useful. We also show that quantum switch can help to get quantum advantage in quantum random access code when only useless channels are available for communication. Then we show that quantum switch can be useful to prevent the loss of coherence in a quantum system. We also discuss the fact that if noise is introduced in the switch, then improvement can significantly be decreased.
