Efficient Scheme for Perfect Collective Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen Steering
A practical scheme for the demonstration of perfect one-sided
device-independent quantum secret sharing is proposed. The scheme involves a
three-mode optomechanical system in which a pair of independent cavity modes is
driven by short laser pulses and interact with a movable mirror. We demonstrate
that by tuning the laser frequency to the blue (anti-Stokes) sideband of the
average frequency of the cavity modes, the modes become mutually coherent and
then may collectively steer the mirror mode to a perfect
Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen state. The scheme is shown to be experimentally
feasible, it is robust against the frequency difference between the modes,
mechanical thermal noise and damping, and coupling strengths of the cavity
modes to the mirror.Comment: 9 pages, 4 figure
Effective generation of Ising interaction and cluster states in coupled microcavities
We propose a scheme for realizing the Ising spin-spin interaction and atomic
cluster states utilizing trapped atoms in coupled microcavities. It is shown
that the atoms can interact with each other via the exchange of virtual photons
of the cavities. Through suitably tuning the parameters, an effective Ising
spin-spin interaction can be generated in this optical system, which is used to
produce the cluster states. This scheme does not need the preparation of
initial states of atoms and cavity modes, and is insensitive to cavity decay.Comment: 11pages, 2 figures, Revtex
Fractional Quantum Hall Effect of Hard-Core Bosons in Topological Flat Bands
Recent proposals of topological flat band (TFB) models have provided a new
route to realize the fractional quantum Hall effect (FQHE) without Landau
levels. We study hard-core bosons with short-range interactions in two
representative TFB models, one of which is the well known Haldane model (but
with different parameters). We demonstrate that FQHE states emerge with
signatures of even number of quasi-degenerate ground states on a torus and a
robust spectrum gap separating these states from higher energy spectrum. We
also establish quantum phase diagrams for the filling factor 1/2 and illustrate
quantum phase transitions to other competing symmetry-breaking phases.Comment: 4 pages, 6 figure
