Probabilistic quantum cloning via Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger states
Chuanwei Zhang, Chuan-Feng Li, Zi-Yang Wang, Guang-Can Guo · Physical Review A · 2000
We propose a probabilistic quantum cloning scheme using Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger (GHZ) states, Bell-basis measurements, single-qubit unitary operations, and generalized measurements, all of which are within the reach of current technology. Compared to another possible scheme via Tele-controlled-NOT gate [D. Gottesman and I. L. Chuang, Nature (London) 402, 390 (1999)], the present scheme may be used in experiment to clone the states of one particle to those of two different particles with higher probability and less GHZ resources.
