Entanglement generation and preservation is a key task in quantum information processing, and a variety of protocols exist to entangle remote qubits via measurement of their spontaneous emission. We here propose feedback methods, based on monitoring the fluorescence of two qubits and using only local pi-pulses for control, to increase the yield and/or lifetime of entangled two-qubit states. Specifically, we describe a protocol based on photodetection of spontaneous emission (i.e. using quantum jump trajectories) which allows for entanglement preservation via measurement undoing, creating a limit cycle around a Bell states. We then demonstrate that a similar modification can be made to a recent feedback scheme based on homodyne measurement (i.e. using diffusive quantum trajectories), [L. S. Martin and K. B. Whaley, arXiv:1912.00067] in order to increase the lifetime of the entanglement it creates. Our schemes are most effective for high measurement efficiencies, and the impact of less-than-ideal measurement efficiency is quantified. The method we describe here combines proven techniques in a novel way, complementing existing protocols, and offering a pathway towards generating and protecting entangled states so that they may be used in various applications on demand.
A quantum battery is a work reservoir that stores energy in quantum degrees of freedom. When immersed in an environment an open quantum battery needs to be stabilized against free energy leakage into the environment. For this purpose we here propose
Quantum measurements not only extract information from a system but also alter its state. Although the outcome of the measurement is probabilistic, the backaction imparted on the measured system is accurately described by quantum theory. Therefore, q
We derive a state dependent error-disturbance trade-off based on a statistical distance in the sequential measurements of a pair of noncommutative observables and experimentally verify the relation with a photonic qubit system. We anticipate that thi
The theory of Gaussian quantum fluctuations around classical steady states in nonlinear quantum-optical systems (also known as standard linearization) is a cornerstone for the analysis of such systems. Its simplicity, together with its accuracy far f
In this work, we consider optimal state discrimination for a quantum system that interacts with an environment, i.e., states evolve under a quantum channel. We show the conditions on a quantum channel and an ensemble of states such that a measurement
