Comment on ``Manipulating the frequency entangled states by an acoutic-optical modulator''

Abstract

A recent theoretical paper [1] proposes a scheme for entanglement swapping utilizing acousto-optic modulators without requiring a Bell-state measurement. In this comment, we show that the proposal is flawed and no entanglement swapping can occur without measurement.Comment: 6 pages, 2 figures submitted to Phys. Rev
