Preparation of cluster states and W states with superconducting- quantum-interference-device qubits in cavity QED

We propose schemes to create cluster states and W states by many superconducting-quantum-interference-device (SQUID) qubits in cavities under the influence of the cavity decay. Our schemes do not require auxiliary qubits, and the excited levels are only virtually coupled throughout the scheme, which could much reduce the experimental challenge. We consider the cavity decay in our model and analytically demonstrate its detrimental influence on the prepared entangled states.Comment: 6 pages, 3 figures, to appear in Phys. Rev.

Universal quantum computation with electronic qubits in decoherence-free subspace

We investigate how to carry out universal quantum computation deterministically with free electrons in decoherence-free subspace by using polarizing beam splitters, charge detectors, and single-spin rotations. Quantum information in our case is encoded in spin degrees of freedom of the electron-pairs which construct a decoherence-free subspace. We design building blocks for two noncommutable single-logic-qubit gates and a logic controlled phase gate, based on which a universal and scalable quantum information processing robust to dephasing is available in a deterministic way.Comment: 14 pages, 3 figure

Determination of heat transfer coefficient for hot stamping process

© 2015 The Authors.The selection of the heat transfer coefficient is one of the most important factors that determine the reliability of FE simulation results of a hot stamping process, in which the formed component is held within cold dies until fully quenched. The quenching process could take up to 10. seconds. In order to maximise the production rate, the optimised quenching parameters should be identified to achieve the highest possible quenching rate and to reduce the quenching time. For this purpose, a novel-testing rig for the Gleeble 3800 thermo- mechanical simulator was designed and manufactured, with an advanced control system for temperature and contact pressure. The effect of contact pressure on the heat transfer coefficient was studied. The findings of this research will provide useful guidelines for the selection of the heat transfer coefficient in simulations of hot stamping processes and useful information for the design of hot stamping processes

Simple scheme for two-qubit Grover search in cavity QED

Following the proposal by F. Yamaguchi et al.[Phys. Rev. A 66, 010302 (R) (2002)], we present an alternative way to implement the two-qubit Grover search algorithm in cavity QED. Compared with F. Yamaguchi et al.'s proposal, with a strong resonant classical field added, our method is insensitive to both the cavity decay and thermal field, and doesn't require that the cavity remain in the vacuum state throughout the procedure. Moreover, the qubit definitions are the same for both atoms, which makes the experiment easier. The strictly numerical simulation shows that our proposal is good enough to demonstrate a two-qubit Grover's search with high fidelity.Comment: manuscript 10 pages, 2 figures, to appear in Phys.

Optimal Controlled Teleportation

We give the analytic expressions of maximal probabilities of successfully controlled teleportating an unknown qubit via every kind of tripartite states. Besides, another kind of localizable entanglement is also determined. Furthermore, we give the sufficient and necessary condition that a three-qubit state can be collapsed to an EPR pair by a measurement on one qubit, and characterize the three-qubit states that can be used as quantum channel for controlled teleporting a qubit of unknown information with unit probability and with unit fidelity.Comment: 4 page
