Experimental Quantum Teleportation with a 3-Bell-state Analyzer

Abstract

We present a Bell-state analyzer for time-bin qubits allowing the detection of three out of four Bell-states with linear optics, two detectors and no auxiliary photons. The theoretical success rate of this scheme is 50%. A teleportation experiment was performed to demonstrate its functionality. We also present a teleportation experiment with a Fidelity larger than the cloning limit of F=5/6.Comment: 11 pages, 14 figure
