Faithful qubit transmission against collective noise without ancillary qubits
Xi-Han Li, Fu-Guo Deng, Hong-Yu Zhou · Applied Physics Letters · 2007
We present a faithful qubit transmission scheme with linear optics against collective noise, not resorting to ancillary qubits. Its setup is composed of three unbalanced polarization interferometers, based on a polarizing beam splitter, a beam splitter, and a half wave plate, which makes this scheme more feasible than others with present technology. The fidelity of successful transmission is 1, independent of the parameters of the collective noise, and the success probability for obtaining an uncorrupted state can be improved to 100% with some time delayers. Moreover, this scheme has some good applications in one-way quantum communication for rejecting the errors caused by the collective noise in quantum channel.
