  3. Challenge of Quantum Teleportation: transfer two non-commuting operators from one system onto another (Heisenberg picture) equivalent to: Transfer an unknown quantum state from one system onto another (Schördinger picture) Teleportation experiments so far: Light onto light:Innsbruck(97), Rome(97), Caltech(98), Geneva, Tokyo, Canberra… Single ion onto siingle ion: Boulder (04), Innsbruck (04)

  4. Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen entangled state Teleportation principle (canonical operators) L.Vaidman Demonstrated experimentally for light variables byFurusawa, Sørensen, Fuchs, Braunstein Kimble, Polzik. Science 1998

  29. Raw data: atomic state for <n>=5 input photonic state Reconstructed teleported state, F=0.58±0.02

  30. Experimental quantum fidelity versus best classical case Upper bound on <n> ≈ 1000 – due to gain instability F quantum F classical = Anticipated qubit fidelity: Fqubit =72% (with feasible imperfections) Optimal gain

Summary: • Teleportation between two mesoscopic objects of different nature – • a photonic pulse and an atomic ensemble demonstrated • Distance 0.5 meter, can be increased (limited mainly • by propagation losses) • Extention to qubit teleportation possible • Fidelity can approach 100% with more sophisticated measurement • procedure plus using squeezed light as a probe J.
