Quantum Information Processing with Atomic Ensembles
Tim Byrnes, Ebubechukwu O. Ilo-Okeke · Cambridge University Press eBooks · 2021
In this final chapter, we focus more on quantum information and quantum computing applications of atomic ensembles. We first examine ways of implementing continuous variables in quantum information processing using atomic ensembles, based on the Holstein--Primakoff approximation. Methods to perform quantum teleportation using this method, and some seminal experiments using this approach are introduced. We then introduce other approaches not based on the Holstein--Primakoff approximation to represent quantum information, namely the spinor quantum computing scheme. After showing a simple example of how such a scheme works with Deutsch's algorithm, we describe how adiabatic quantum computing can be performed, which displays the key feature of quantum error suppression.
