  Title (up) Experimental EPR-steering using Bell-local states Type Journal Article
  Year 2010 Publication Nat. Phys. Abbreviated Journal Nat. Phys.  
  Volume 6 Issue 11 Pages 845-849  
  Keywords fromIPMRAS  
  Abstract The concept of `steering' was introduced in 1935 by Schrödinger as a generalization of the EPR (Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen) paradox. It has recently been formalized as a quantum-information task with arbitrary bipartite states and measurements, for which the existence of entanglement is necessary but not sufficient. Previous experiments in this area have been restricted to an approach that followed the original EPR argument in considering only two different measurement settings per side. Here we demonstrate experimentally that EPR-steering occurs for mixed entangled states that are Bell local (that is, that cannot possibly demonstrate Bell non-locality). Unlike the case of Bell inequalities, increasing the number of measurement settings beyond two-we use up to six-significantly increases the robustness of the EPR-steering phenomenon to noise.

  Title (up) Experimental high-dimensional two-photon entanglement and violations of generalized Bell inequalities Type Journal Article
  Year 2011 Publication Nature Physics Abbreviated Journal Nat. Phys.  
  Volume 7 Issue 9 Pages 677-680  
  Keywords fromIPMRAS  
  Abstract Quantum entanglement plays a vital role in many quantum-information and communication tasks. Entangled states of higher-dimensional systems are of great interest owing to the extended possibilities they provide. For example, they enable the realization of new types of quantum information scheme that can offer higher-information-density coding and greater resilience to errors than can be achieved with entangled two-dimensional systems (see ref. and references therein). Closing the detection loophole in Bell test experiments is also more experimentally feasible when higher-dimensional entangled systems are used. We have measured previously untested correlations between two photons to experimentally demonstrate high-dimensional entangled states. We obtain violations of Bell-type inequalities generalized to d-dimensional systems up to d=12. Furthermore, the violations are strong enough to indicate genuine 11-dimensional entanglement. Our experiments use photons entangled in orbital angular momentum, generated through spontaneous parametric down-conversion, and manipulated using computer-controlled holograms.

  Title (up) Experimental investigation of the uncertainty principle in the presence of quantum memory and its application to witnessing entanglement Type Journal Article
  Year 2011 Publication Nature Physics Abbreviated Journal Nat. Phys.  
  Volume 7 Issue 10 Pages 757-761  
  Keywords fromIPMRAS  
  Abstract Heisenberg's uncertainty principle provides a fundamental limitation on the ability of an observer holding classical information to predict the outcome when one of two measurements is performed on a quantum system. However, an observer with access to a particle (stored in a quantum memory) which is entangled with the system generally has a reduced uncertainty: indeed, if the particle and system are maximally entangled, the observer can perfectly predict the outcome of whichever measurement is chosen. This effect has recently been quantified in a new entropic uncertainty relation. Here we experimentally investigate this relation, showing its effectiveness as an efficient entanglement witness. We use entangled photon pairs, an optical delay line serving as a simple quantum memory and fast, active feed-forward. Our results quantitatively agree with the new uncertainty relation. Our technique acts as a witness for almost all entangled states in our experiment as we obtain lower uncertainties than would be possible without the entangled particle.

  Title (up) Experimental loss-tolerant quantum coin flipping Type Journal Article
  Year 2011 Publication Nature Communications Abbreviated Journal Nat. Comm.  
  Volume 2 Issue 561 Pages 7  
  Keywords fromIPMRAS  
  Abstract Coin flipping is a cryptographic primitive in which two distrustful parties wish to generate a random bit to choose between two alternatives. This task is impossible to realize when it relies solely on the asynchronous exchange of classical bits: one dishonest player has complete control over the final outcome. It is only when coin flipping is supplemented with quantum communication that this problem can be alleviated, although partial bias remains. Unfortunately, practical systems are subject to loss of quantum data, which allows a cheater to force a bias that is complete or arbitrarily close to complete in all previous protocols and implementations. Here we report on the first experimental demonstration of a quantum coin-flipping protocol for which loss cannot be exploited to cheat better. By eliminating the problem of loss, which is unavoidable in any realistic setting, quantum coin flipping takes a significant step towards real-world applications of quantum communication.

  Title (up) Experimental quantum teleportation of a two-qubit composite system Type Journal Article
  Year 2006 Publication Nature Physics Abbreviated Journal Nat. Phys.  
  Volume 2 Issue 10 Pages 678-682  
  Keywords fromIPMRAS; quantum teleportation  
  Abstract Quantum teleportation, a way to transfer the state of a quantum system from one location to another, is central to quantum communication and plays an important role in a number of quantum computation protocols. Previous experimental demonstrations have been implemented with single photonic or ionic qubits. However, teleportation of single qubits is insufficient for a large-scale realization of quantum communication and computation. Here, we present the experimental realization of quantum teleportation of a two-qubit composite system. In the experiment, we develop and exploit a six-photon interferometer to teleport an arbitrary polarization state of two photons. The observed teleportation fidelities for different initial states are all well beyond the state estimation limit of 0.40 for a two-qubit system. Not only does our six-photon interferometer provide an important step towards teleportation of a complex system, it will also enable future experimental investigations on a number of fundamental quantum communication and computation protocols
